Townshend Springs under Speakers

@stringreen et al,

Has anyone looked at the spring devices by Solid-Tech:  in ascending order of price: Isoblack, Discs of Silence, and Feet of Silence?  

Looking for some feedback whether my speakers might benefit from the Townshend Podiums.  My speakers are Verity Amadis S.  They come with the following isolation platform that Verity developed.  As I'm not too technically inclined, I'm wondering if someone has any thoughts where the Verity platform fits into the spectrum of issues discussed in this thread and what changes I would likely encounter in trying the Townshend Podium.  Thanks all!

Ah, good point @mitch2 !

I live in an older, urban apartment building from the 1930s.  Top floor of a 3-story building with wood floors that are a bit creaky and not well insulated.  I can hear my downstairs neighbor sneeze.  

Thanks, MC! I’ll probably start then with the pods under the components. I’ve only had intermittent luck with my DIY rollerblocks, and I’m thinking that success with these devices is hostage to the weight/pull exerted by heavy power cords. Trying to neutralize cable pull with Furutech Booster clamps seemed to defeat the value of the rollerblocks and I began to suspect that it was best to use a very light touch with the Furutech clamps when paired with ball-bearing isolation. I take it that this might be less of an issue when using 4 Townshend Pods (as opposed to 3 rolllerblocks) but was also wondering if the "clamp" strategy of the Furutech Boosters was itself a dubious solution to cable vibration that needed to be addressed as well.

Just read your update:  podiums!

Thank you @mitch2 and @MC for your thoughtful responses.  I really appreciate your assistance!

I believe that the original Verity speaker lines came with spikes, but a few years ago, Verity designed this platform and included it as standard equipment (at least on the higher-end models).  I purchased my Amadis  second-hard and the platforms came with it, so there's no additional outlay of money as I own it now.  The question is whether I want to trust the default engineered isolation bases or experiment with other platform options.

Earlier in the thread, @grannyring mentioned that he had achieved good results from Star Sound platforms, particularly in the area of instrument separation.  This is of great interest to me, as I listen to a lot of the major symphonic orchestras from the 1950s-70s, and find that the brass sections tend to blend into an undifferentiated mass.  Some system tweaks have allowed me to make some headway with the string sections, but success with the horns has been elusive.

My amp and digital equipment use a hodgepodge of isolation solutions: DIY rollerblocks, Nordost SortKone and Isoacoustics,

So in terms of achieving better instrument separation, does someone have thoughts on what to prioritize? 
 
-Speaker isolation (Townshend Podiums or Star Sound) (or stay with default platforms)
-Equipment isolation (Townshend pods)
-Townshend F1 speaker cable.  

I corresponded with John from Townshend and ordered up the Podiums  and the speaker cables.  He suggested that the  component Pods can be added in later as needed. 

Expect them to arrive in 10-14 days. I'll keep the group posted with updates.

@ozzy,

Yes, I ordered the F-1 speaker cables.  Don't tell me they're coming out with the F-2!
