Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics?
Regarding the floating turntable I'm pretty suspicious. The pictures all look like hi res concept images to me. There's no credible discussion of the project risks and no information on prototypes. The slick video puts me off and is the turntable ...

Simply it's audiogon automatically inserting a http:// that you then have to delete , otherwise the system works fine 
Headphone or Rig?
I also used to own Stax 009s and while I liked the sound I made ch prefer the results I get in my dedicated room. It's actually set up for near field listening so I get the detail and immediacy of headphones but also the scale and energy that only... 
Synergistic Research Powercell 12UEF
I am not aware of a formal trade up program but my long term dealer was able to give me a good trade in on my old UEFs. I've personally not actually directly compared the UEFs with the AQ 7000 but did find that the upgrade from 10UEF to 12 UEF (th... 
Any comments on the Two Audio Shows Scheduled for Southern California in 2017?
The manufacturers and dealers I have spoken with have indicated a preference for the LA Audio Show in June given the September date for the THE is now almost on top of RMAF. The LAX location for the new show is a good location -- I have fond memor... 
Speaker Isolation -- Experience with Townshend Seismic Isolation Podiums
I think you will like the results with the podiums, not sure what size suits your speakers as I am not familiar with them but as long as you ensure that the speakers will sit easily on the base and the weight rating is good (100kg is no issue) the...

Synergistic Research Powercell 12UEF
The AQ 7000 is very well regarded (and a hair pricier than the UEFs I believe) -- were I not locked in to SR products I'd like to check it out -- I should also note that all my power comes pre-treated by a Torus in wall transformer so I tend towar... 
Miyajima Zero hum?
gerardff - What VTF are you running the Zero at? I too found it a little thin until i upped the tracking weight to 3.5g which seemed way high to me at first but rounded out the sound greatly. I didn't find too much of a change with break in

Synergistic Research Powercell 12UEF
My PowerCell had the FEQs but the original (CTS?) power cords, I had considered upgrading to the Galileo LE power cords but the new 12s came out before then -- anyway as the trade/upgrade on the new PowerCells is about the same as an Atmosphere L3... 
Synergistic Research Atmosphere Power Cords.
For those SR fans out there or others interested in the graphene technology I just posted about my experiences with the new Powercell 12UEFs -- another great application of this technology I think

List of musicians changed career with better success...
David Sylvian solo albums are almost all with Japan membersHmmm, well Steve Jansen is his brother so is he not allowed to work with him without it being Japan? Frankly it was the influence of other musicians such as Sakamoto, Fripp and Czukay that...
