Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend!
@pcourtney   Agreed!  Still loving my bars under my Belle Klipsch and Nobsound under my Turntable. Maybe time to step up that game as well as under my integrated. 
Adding a Turntable Mat
Also Herbie's has matts of various thicknesses which allows you to dial in your VTA. It can be a challenge to measure the difference from where it is now to where you need to be, but gives you another option.  Especially after added the OL Cartrid... 
Owning the speakers you dreamed of 20 years ago
Upgraded my Belle Klipsch crossovers with ALK extreme slope, put them on Townsend Bars and I am in love. I will look into a tweeter upgrade next, based on some of the above comments. I was already on that path anyway. 
why do so many discussions turn contentious?
Almarg seems like a sage. Too bad I missed him, Johnnie-come-lately. 
Townshend Springs under Speakers
I love my Townsend Bars, wouldn't trade them in for anything else. Couldn't tell you how they work, they just do. My 125 lb speakers float in the air, the sway when touched. Everything comes into equilibrium sound-wise for me.

What is the #1 equipment want currently on your HiFi horizon???
All I want for Christmas is a Dr Feickert Blackbird with a 4-point and other nice arm.  However my quarters jar is not full enough yet...Santa HELP! 
Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend!
That's great, glad to hear it!   I sure look forward to coming home and listening.  Cheers! 
klipsh scala speakers
For me stock La Scalas are good...with a few tweaks they can really sing and pound.  They are very loud.  If he is willing to tweak them (dampen, upgrade crossover) this would be a great pair.  In it's natural set-up it can fall short.  My favorit... 
WHAT IS THE MOST TOUCHY SONG THAT YOU HAVE EVER HEARD?
"Don't Touch Me There" by The Tubes. 
How much reality do you really need?
@fuzztone and others...agree it is about the music.  Good stuff here though, fun read.@millercarbon..."Until it's there."  Right!Personally, I'm just along for the ride, everywhere I look, there I am.
