Marigo Aida CD Mat
I see your Marigo Aida CD Mat and raise you two New Dark Matters and one Mystery CD tweak.

It’s probably not that obvious but worth pointing out since inner tubes were just mentioned. The smoother and harder the surfaces are made for the roller bearing assemblies the more critical balance and level become, even if cups are used top and ...

The physics of roller bearings, pt 2.If the base of the roller bearing assembly is flat there can be only rotational isolation in the twist direction. 🕺🏻 Plus isolation in the horizontal x-z plane. You lose the isolation in the roll and rock direc...

glupson"Pop quiz Can anyone think of a reason roller bearings might not be a good idea under a turntable?"It would roll of the shelf.>>>>>>>There’s one in every crowd. 
Furutech fuse
Actually, in the case of the Blue Fuse everyone does have the same results. Well, maybe there are a few outliers out of 40,000 or whatever. Who cares?

More stuff on LIGOAnnounced by the LIGO collaboration in February 2016, the discovery of ripples in spacetime known as gravitational waves was momentous enough to merit the 2017 Nobel Prize in Physics. Now, another Nobel laureate says LIGO has unk...

The physics of roller bearings, pt. 1The reason vibration isolation is important is that low frequency vibration and forces related to that vibration affects the audio signal, including but not limited to the wiring in the wall, the wall outlets, ... 
Furutech fuse
I can certainly understand if someone doesn’t get good results right away because the fuse will not sound right if it’s out in backwards. And since fuses are generally not marked for direction there is no way of knowing which way is the right way ...

There are many ways to skin a cat. I use those heavy one inch high glass candle holders for the base and either Super Balls or some appropriately sized ball made of glass, maybe a glass marble, or other very hard material for the balls. Super Ball...

Uh, but LIGO didn’t fail. You don’t pay attention very well, do you? God gave you two ears and one mouth for a reason. Snap out of it!

I heard through the grapevine that Audio Magic Ultimate SHD Beeswax Fuses are the bee’s knees. 🐝

Debbie could certainly find a lot of gas here. Good luck in your quest for mediocrity.
