| Ingress Audio Engineering My springs are more cost effective than the pods. Besides, I don’t advertise or recommend my springs for speakers, anyway, except medium-size speakers and subwoofers (low center of gravity). My springs are primarily for amps, turntables, CD player... | |
| Ingress Audio Engineering If I told you they wouldn’t be secrets, would they? | |
| Would an Isolation TT platform further improve my TT? The big problem with the “heavy and massive” approach is the entire building is moving, thus everything that’s not decoupled from it is moving right along with it. The mass of the building itself cannot withstand the enormous forces produced by se... | |
| Acoustic treatment I’m a big fan of tiny little bowl acoustic resonators as opposed to big ugly Tube Traps or mattress size panels. They’re much easier to set up, too. As it turns out corners aren’t even the right place for Tube Traps half the time. | |
| Considering switching to Tubes Oh, you mean like steel frame road bikes? 🚴♂️ | |

| Music lover or audiophile? Huh?! Addiction is the most enjoyable part. Hel-loo! | |
| Would an Isolation TT platform further improve my TT? For turntables the primary problem is the resonant frequencies of the tonearm and cartridge are very low, circa 10-12 Hz - too low for the acoustic waves from speakers, but just right for very low frequency seismic type vibration, you know, the on... | |
| Ingress Audio Engineering I wouldn’t be quite so loose with how to employ my springs, no offense. | |
| Ingress Audio Engineering Somebody hasn’t been paying very close attention. I’ve already shared the secrets for the springs I use. Wake up and smell the coffee! ☕️ | |
| Ingress Audio Engineering I would imagine damping would be more appropriate as well as less expensive for dipoles since speaker isolation is primarily used to prevent mechanical feedback. And dipoles don’t transmit much energy directly to the floor. It would probably be mu... | |
| Ingress Audio Engineering bdp24The V.2 plus a set of Geoff’s springs would make a great budget isolation system. @geoffkait, how do you recommend your springs be partnered with roller bearings? I may just use my Symposium Jr’s, double cup style, therefore not having to be ... | |

| Ingress Audio Engineering redlenses0@geoffkait am aware of the challenges of inner tube in both setup and performance as you eluded to - has to be just right and thus my reference to trying wave springs etc..just not sure what and where to get them yet, ideas? >>>... | |
| Ingress Audio Engineering bdp24redlenses03, if you want pneumatic isolation, and don’t mind spending a little money and time, you can keep your eyes open for the old Townshend Audio Seismic Sink platforms that were made in the 90’s-00’s. There were a few different versions... |
