You told Jred, and I quote, “don’t listen to scothurwitz, your amp doesn’t need damping”. First of all, I never said it needed damping. All I told him was when I tried a 3” piece of butcher block under a piece of equipment, it made it sound worse. What I did suggest was a good set of isolation feet. Anyone who has tried a good isolation foot under a piece of gear knows it can make a huge improvement.
Jred,
I wish you the best of luck with the butcher block approach, hopefully you will get better results then I did. To not try a good set of isolation feet is, in my opinion, a mistake. They will always make the amp sound noticeably better than just the butcher block by itself. Go to your local hifi shop and ask them if you could try a set, any reputable dealer will let you take home a set to try, if you don’t feel they make the amp sound better, bring them back. If you don’t try them, you’ll never know. Trust your ears. Good luck.
