| IsoAcoustics GAIA @fpomposo The beauty of the gaia is their sturdiness keeping the speaker solidly anchored. With soborthane there was times while I adjusted the speaker placement that I came close to watching a 6ft 214 lbs speaker come crashing down. Now it is s... | |
| IsoAcoustics GAIA Possibly, but obviously superior engineering than a soborthane foot. | |
| IsoAcoustics GAIA I will never know about the Townshend since they won't fit my triangular shaped speakers. Very large and very heavy, with their shape they could easily tip over on a Townshend podium, even if they did fit. | |
| IsoAcoustics GAIA @bigwave1 I have carpeting and I do not use spikes with the Gayas. Rather I have the speakers on plain Gayas resting on a 1 1/2" thick maple butcher block. It really is helpful in maneuvering the heavy speakers while searching for the perfect pl... | |
| IsoAcoustics GAIA And soborthane is in no way superior to Gaias. And I used to strictly go with soborthane to isolate. I guess we do not have anywhere the same experiences. Whatever works for you... | |
| IsoAcoustics GAIA @snilf I strongly disagree with your assumption. Isolation is better than coupling regardless of the floor material. My experience tells me that in spades. My house of stereo is built purely for listening to music and features a concrete floor a... | |
| IsoAcoustics GAIA Got them under my 200+lbs PBN MONTANA XPS speakers. Once you find a way to install them, they are so much better than the spikes they came with. Isolation is key, not coupling. | |
| What's my best upgrade options It's the economy, stupid. Err, try it again, it's the sources, stupid. Not calling the op stupid just the system. | |
| YouTube Indicates What the Future is For Audiophiles - Interesting Demographics. This discussion is gathering a lot of interest, most of it from nostalgia. The youth of today, like the youth of any period, is listening to what is played at the time on whatever equipment is available at the time at a cost they can afford. Whate... | |
| Use of Denafrips Iris 12th DDC with computer @mesch I would try something like the ifi silencer+/usb noise filter at $59. It makes so much more sense than the DDC in your application. | |
| Use of Denafrips Iris 12th DDC with computer @mesch Going from a Jay's transport to an Audio mirror dac has to spoil you pretty good soundwise. If all you need your computer to dac for is background music for a secondary system, I seriously doubt you will hear a noticeable difference with ... | |
| Use of Denafrips Iris 12th DDC with computer It's amazing to see that some folks on this audiophile site still choose to stream music directly from computer to dac. An inexpensive streamer will improve your experience 10 fold vs adding any DDC between your computer and dac. Not speaking of e... | |
| It’s true what they say/and a question Gavin Harrison's drum is probably better mic'd than anyone. Plus he is one of the greatest drummer around. | |
| Anyone remember the days before bells and whistles! I like the tilt feature in the cabinet. | |
| Music reproduction is art I get it now, asvjerry's trippy writing is the left over from his Grateful Dead's days in San Francisco. |
