Hana Umami Red vs Dynavector xv-1s The Umami is an amazing cartridge, almost as good as Koetsu Rosewood signature platinum. I know I am not saying much, but I truly like the Umami, it is probably one of the biggest surprises. I have really great cartridges that cost 5-10 times and... | |
Isoacoustics Orea vs Townshend Seismic Pod on Components @arafiq, there is fine tuning to be done. The space between the plates should 1-3mm, sometimes 4. I would start with the least amount of springs and go from there. If you have REW do some measurements before and after along with the different sett... | |
Isoacoustics Orea vs Townshend Seismic Pod on Components IMHO I would do the amp first among other things because it is tubed | |
Power conditioner or not? My experience, with the PS20 and 15 is pretty good, my soundstage and clarity improved, as it did and measured distortion. My high power hungry Class A amp opened up and became a lot more dynamic. In the USA I would grade the results about 7-8 ... | |

Isoacoustics Orea vs Townshend Seismic Pod on Components @tomic601 Hello Jim, we will figure it out on how to meet.

Isoacoustics Orea vs Townshend Seismic Pod on Components @millercarbon My bad Credo :) @whipsaw I will have those measurements when I get home, still waiting for Acoustic Signature to send me the replacement turntable as mine was not working properly. My home in Spain is made out bricks, stone and hav... | |
Isoacoustics Orea vs Townshend Seismic Pod on Components @ryder I have been in the USA for a few weeks with not much work to do so I have spent a lot of time measuring different platforms. The Isoacoustic product i.e. Orea and Gaia provide almost unmeasurable improvement, the $34 for 4 Nobsound are ab... | |

Isoacoustics Orea vs Townshend Seismic Pod on Components Is there a way to post pictures here ? I can post decay analysis for a couple of my tests. | |
AV RoomService EVP Isolation Footers vs Star Sound Tech I measured other EPV's feet against other isolation/decoupling, none of the "foam" based come close to spring based feet. From Nobsound to Seismic Isolation pods and podiums do a much better job decupling and isolating that any of the of the foam... | |
How to identify my weakest link? 1+ for the Umami! If you are going to look for speaker platforms, take a look at this before. I wish I could post pictures.....I could show the decay difference between the Credo Audio and Townshend Podiums... Both are very good, but the Credo ha... | |
