I use a Bright Star Little Rock slab on my very lightweight components to mash them tightly against the Black Diamond Racing Cones, Audiopoints, or Goldmund cones that I use underneath them. My lightweight components are a New Tjoeb CD player, a couple of tuners, an ARC PH-3 phono preamp, and, before I sold it, my ARC LS-15. This seemed to anchor them more securely to the cones and improve the focus and resolution. But of course, I could be imagining things. Currently, my BAT VK30SE preamp is heavy enough to bear down enough on its own onto the Audiopoints it sits on (on a Sistrum rack, full of Audiopoints), so I no longer use a Little Rock on top of it.
What is sound floor
As a novice, kinda interested in learning what exactly "sound floor" is. I could guess, but then again, why do that since there are so many of you out there who can 'splain it to me...
And, how does weighting down components with slabs of stone improve it? Just for the sake of living up to my user ID, I'm considering either granite or marble (the cans of maple syrup just ain't cuttin' it right now, although it is better when warmed slightly). Thanks.
