| Does anyone use wood for vibration control? Purpleheart and African Padauk are both excellent. Both about equally hard and dense and heavy which I believe is key. I have two inch thick bases which also is important. The thicker the wood the better. For small components like macmini, mod... | |
| Soldered VS ...everything else Thanks Geoff | |
| Soldered VS ...everything else @geoffkait: Geoff, which graphene contact product do you recommend? ThanksHasan | |
| Looking for Teknasonic Vibration Absorber Has anyone tried the Marigo VT31 discs? Two of these discs have been on the back sides of each of my wooden speaker cabinets for some months now to damp resonance. They have had a very nice effect on my Nola Metro Grand 2s. I wonder whether anyone... | |
| A DAC that crushes price vs. performance ratio @teajay, I was completely on board with your view of the Concert Fidelity tube NOS DAC-040 as you gave it in a review here some years ago. How does this DAC compare to that in your opinion? Thanks. | |
| Floor standing speaker isolation advice needed. Within the budget you mention, I think you should consider @geoffkait's suggestion. He does understand the mechanics of springs. I am personally familiar with the Townshend speaker podiums which perhaps are above your budget. The Townshends are ... | |
| Yesteryears' expensive speakers compared to modern moderately expensive speakers In your moderately expensive range, you might look at an older Nola Metro Grand 2 pair or perhaps even the earlier Metro Grand. The latest versions of these Nolas - Metro Golds 1, 2 3 etc etc - are probably slightly better but they all use the sam... | |
| Anyone Using Crystals? I will be interested in trying some of your crystals soon Geoff. Will be in touch soon. | |
| Anyone Using Crystals? Red fire agate stones much better than anything else around my fuse box. | |
| Anyone Using Crystals? Thanks for the advice @elizabeth and @geoffkait. I took the tourmaline off all live connections just to be safe. But I am using a lot of it now - several pounds weight - all over inside my BPT conditioners, on most power cable connectors, inside... | |
| Anyone Using Crystals? OK thank you Elizabeth. I will do that. | |
| Anyone Using Crystals? @geoffkait, @lak or anyone else who might know the answer to this safe operation type of question please. I have a piece of unshielded tourmaline sitting inside my DAC on the PCB right on top of what is a live conductor strip that is connected to ... | |
| Anyone Using Crystals? I have only been using the powdered black tourmaline in computer and modem USB and ethernet jacks which tend to get a bit warm from the heat hose units generate, so perhaps that is why I am finding it somewhat helpful there. I have not found tour... | |
| Anyone Using Crystals? I am finding the biggest impact of using black tourmaline around the fuse box. The effect is on naturalness and coherence overall, and bass and mid-range. I was surprised by the sharply different effect I got from a piece of red agate in treble ou... | |
| Anyone Using Crystals? I used black tourmaline that I bought on eBay from the seller worldincensestore. He has both glossy black tourmaline rods and rough black rocks. I have both but can’t tell the difference sound wise anyway. Bits of the rough black rocks are easier ... |
