SVS Subwoofer Isolation feet. Will I lose bass?
Hey, mc, are you huffing Clorox again? No offense intended.

No. The (appropriate) springs have very high lateral stability for subwoofers, as we say in the trade. Stiffness to any civilians out there. No wobbling.

Why no interest in reel to reel if you're looking for the ultimate sound?
Portable cassette players will do until something better gets here. I’m currently listening to a Sony Professional portable cassette player. Made in Japan. Accept no substitutes. 🤗

The primary reason to isolate the subwoofer is to eliminate mechanical feedback to the system via the floor. The secondary reason is to reduce subwoofer cabinet resonance. It’s two, two mints in one! 🤗 
I think it’s completely overwhelming...
Yes, I know you meant 99% perspiration.

What is this, the Frick and Frack Show? Has anyone ever considered an upper limit for voting age? 😬

Tape is a natural medium. It breathes. Tape has sparkle, air, warmth and musicality, you know, things that are conspicuously absent from tape’s digital brethren. Exceptions some digitally remastered cassettes such as the 1994 Jimmy Page Led Zeppel...

Too much jiggling.

Sun Ra rocks. I just ordered Concert for the Comet Kahoutek on CD the other day.  
power cord directionality
Apparently the manufacturer honored the directionality of the wire (raw conductor) and the directionality of the shield. So, if the label is wrong the umbilical is in the wrong direction. If the cable can be reversed try it both ways to see which ... 
power cord directionality
That is the exact question I’ve been asking on many different threads here for a very long time for the last few years. No one seems to know, or if they do they’re not sharing. It’s similar to the question, why does the effect of vibration on cabl... 
Turntable platforms
Granite has the inherent advantage of mass and stiffness and sounds great if it is isolated on springs as the top plate of the iso device. Granite cannot ring if it is isolated since the granite cannot be excited by floorborne vibration due to fil...
