Herbie’s Super Black Hole CD Mat - Wow! I took felt rings off of my Legacy Focus dome tweeters because they restricted the off-axis high frequency sound. Sort of like a clamshell on a clam. So much more open without the felt rings. | |
Perfect Path Technologies - "Stop It" AC Duplex passive line conditioners I am very pleased with my current listening room floor isolation. It consists of a 12” thick, ½” rebar reinforced, 3000 psi poured concrete slab. My previous listening room had a 5.5” thick, similar floor. Both are covered with 90lb. weight p... | |
Active isolation; what can it do for music reproduction? I am very pleased with my current listening room floor isolation.

Herbie’s Super Black Hole CD Mat - Wow! I had a problem for the last week accessing only the forums I tried to post in. The moderator answered today and said she had no problem in Chrome. I just found out using I.E. that all my posts and updates were available. I don't know why my Ch... | |
Herbie’s Super Black Hole CD Mat - Wow! I've used four different CD rings including a green and black Marigo. The Herbie's use results are the same in my system as in Robert and Frank's. Diminished musicality, reduced dynamics and compressed sound. Not good. However, I have an alter... | |
Recommend speakers for a large living room My recommendation for the best audio system sound I ever heard had the Von Schweikert Ultra 11s in a huge room. After that, at half the price are the Ultra 9s good for large rooms as well. They are expensive but would have fit my previous home's... | |
Herbie’s Super Black Hole CD Mat - Wow! What's going on? My last two posts are under submission rather than immediately posted. Is it a change in Audiogon policy? | |
Active isolation; what can it do for music reproduction? Without my air bladder Townsend Sink for my VPI VI, I would have dumped the table. It is essential, unlike my VPI 19-4 whose springs and rubber feet actually did damp vibrations. With the Sink, my table is a great table (& modified SME IV ar... | |

Herbie’s Super Black Hole CD Mat - Wow! I have had four damping discs including the Marigo green and black and the Herbie's super black hole. The same results with the Herbie's, dulling the dynamics and highs, robbing the sound of it's musicality as Robert and Frank report. Yuk! Howe... | |
Something For The Fuse Guys ... Hi Frank, I'm glad to hear that the new Orange fuse sounds better than a broken in Blue fuse immediately. The Blue fuse sounded better than a broken in Black fuse immediately. The Black fuse sounded like drek from hours 15 to 72 and I hated kee... | |
Why does my old CD player sound so much better than my new streamer? My direct disc 78s didn't have tape in the way. They can have superb musicality despite their sonic shortcomings. However, CD remasterings can improve the sound with reequalization, speed control (for acoustics) and noise reduction that enhances... | |
Why does my old CD player sound so much better than my new streamer? Funny, I don't keep buying equipment until I die. I've upgraded my cabling and tweaks but that's it for 13 years. I plan to upgrade my speakers in the future and possibly my DAC. Listening to Patricia Barber recordings is not my choice for jud... | |
Why does my old CD player sound so much better than my new streamer? My experiences in digital do not include streaming or downloads. My CD rips are to CDs via the Alesis Masterlink. I still prefer the original DAT recordings from the 90s played back through my all tube/analog audio system. I can’t get the bass and... |
