Help: Accuphase XLR pin 3 hot into XLR pin 2 hot? (no unbalanced avail)
According to the Polarity Pundit exactly 92% of CDs are out of polarity. So folks would be much better off putting their system out of polarity. Then only 8% of CDs would sound out of polarity. Also, according to the polarity pundit LPs don't suff...

If you don’t like someone’s opinion tough toenails. No reason to call names though. Perhaps you just don't understand the meaning of free speech, who knows? 
Has anyone had experiences good or bad with speaker isolation or isolation in general ?
Weber’s bar was a very large aluminum bar with a large number of piezoelectric detectors attached to the bar allow for six degrees of isolation as well as the ability to determine the direction from whence the gravity waves emanated. Interesting t...

bdp24Unfortunately, Holt’s law states that the better the music, the worse the recording, and visa versa. You have to consider good sound a pleasant surprise and bonus, not your main criteria.Also consider Shannon’s Law, the more expensive a syste... 
Has anyone had experiences good or bad with speaker isolation or isolation in general ?
Hmmmm...why so many accelerometers? And why only H and V accelerometers? I think it’s so they can use the differences between two or more vertical accelerometers placed in different locations across the platform - for example, to determine velocit...

Looks like vertical and two horizontal directions in the graphs. Very interesting. Especially with TT on and no isolation. Are there similar graphs for the 3 rotational directions? Thanks in advance. 
Has anyone had experiences good or bad with speaker isolation or isolation in general ?
Folkfreak, how does the Herzan deal with turntables since it’s a six degree of freedom platform? Wouldn’t the twist direction isolation interfere with the spinning turntable platter? As I recall the Minus K disengages the twist rotation isolation ...

Folkfreak wrote,"Of course they are a little more expensive."I’d opine beyond the means of most people, in particular most people participating on this thread. Of course you can obtain Halcyonics or TLC or other expensive devices, even the Vibrapl... 
Has anyone had experiences good or bad with speaker isolation or isolation in general ?
Almost all of the current vibration isolation devices, yes, including mine (the exception is the Minus K platform that gets down to sub Hertz performance). By performance I refer to the device’s resonant frequency under load. But wait! Resonant fr...

Every million dollar system I ever heard sucked. I'm out. 
Has anyone had experiences good or bad with speaker isolation or isolation in general ?
Mains@geoffkait - Can you please recommend to me the products that can be placed on top of the cables at roughly the same places as the discs,that you sell, maybe i can then place the mpingo discs on top of the equipment to see if the results are ... 
Whats playing on your system today?
"Show me the way to the next whiskey bar..." The Doors in Concert. Cassette set contains the tracks from the Absolutely Live LP plus more. Yeah! Pretty neat, pretty neat, pretty good, pretty good. 
Vibration control inside a cabinet
I’m glad you mentioned that, Todd, as one of the really big advantages of my "new style" cryo’d springs is their size, being only about 3/4" compressed in height. So they will Fit just about anywhere. You could even use them on submarines, one sup...

Vibration control inside a cabinet
Tom, while I can appreciate your persistence in this matter, apparently there CAN be isolation where there is MOTION as demonstrated by LIGO, the 4 km long interferometer experiment to detect gravity waves - the most critical portion of which is t...
