At the price per disc, who really cares? 
Maple Platform Question
The jury is still out on whether 3 or 4 cones is more stable. It depends a lot on how widely the cones can be arranged under the turntable. If there are any even small irregularities in the level of the underside of the turntable OR the platform o... 
Damping the analogue "setup"
Well, for one thing, ebony resonates like a bastard, so you are kind of fighting the rack, as it were. 
Review: Create Audio Ultimate gold & rhodium nano fuse Tweak
Honda6 - Even Hi Fi Tuning found out, eventually, all fuses are directional. As fate would have it, even for stock, off the shelf fuses, if one reinserts each fuse, one at a time, and listens for a change in sound at each step, it's possible to tr... 
Stillpoints ERS cloth for EMI/RFI
I can't say that I've gone as far as trying ERS cloth inside components. I got as far as trying it around cables and on top of various components in large, medium and small sizes of the material. I experimented with ERS cloth in two highly resolvi... 
question about wire break in
It seems pretty clear that the cable break in phenomenon is part of the whole cable controvery that has been going on these 35 years or so. Once one breaks away from the basic ideas that all cables sound the same, that higher purity conductors are... 
Review: Create Audio Ultimate gold & rhodium nano fuse Tweak
As much as I hate to raise this question after such a thorough review, but is it possible that the fuse you replaced with the Create Audio fuse was installed in the improper direction? I.e., couldn't that explain the difference in sound. And speak...

Cable/Fuse Direction Matters?
Williwonka, kinda gets a little complicated and difficult to say what's going on, you know, what with burning in cables, cryoing cables, isolating cables, burning in components, cryoing components, directionality of wires and fuses. I like to sort... 
Cable/Fuse Direction Matters?
Williwonka - Wouldn't silver's (slightly higher) conductivity actually increase the detectability of directionality rather than reduce it? Answer at 11.Sidebar: Isochronism: thanks :-)

Cable/Fuse Direction Matters?
I've said it before and I'll say it again. All wire is directional and if interconnects and fuse directionality are audible one supposes that somebody somewhere ought to get on the ball and ensure directionality for ALL wire and cable, including t...
