| Townshend Audio ones Through Following MC I replaced my Gaia’s with the podiums and I was very surprised at the improvement. IMHO they work very very well with Full Range speakers and ribbon cables (In my case the wonderful silversmith Fideliums). Hard to imagine a more “live... | |

| Townshend Maximum Supertweeters I used Townshend Maxs for several months--they do indeed add atmosphere and improve the soundstage as advertised. Front firing they added a bit of "glare," however, and seemed to give me a headache. I switched to rear-firing, aimed upwards at the ... | |
| Your favorite OCC speaker cable +1 mglik on the Fideliums. Amazing cable: component level upgrade over SR Foundations (which I liked) | |
| Townshend Seismic Isolation Podium Platform Review: The Podiums under full range speakers are a magical combination... | |
| As promised my thoughts on my newly installed Townsend Podium isolation system. Similar results. I was impressed by the difference Gaias made. But the Podiums are a dramatic step up. | |
| Nakamichi RX-505 and some nice tapes for it What are you interested in paying? I have one... haven’t used it in 30 years: the auto reverse might need work | |
| Holographic Soundstage ? Another direction to go for depth of sound stage specifically: audiokenesis sound generator horns... rear-firing add-on speakers: they work (in my system). | |
| Townshend Audio F1 Fractal Speaker Cables I was going to contact you, MC, to say that SilversmithAudio Fideliums convinced me that ribbon speaker cables are the real deal. But of course you already got there... My experience tallies with yours: a slight drop in loudness but incredible det... | |

| Albums you played endlessly growing up Raw Power. 4-5 times a day. | |
| If you hopped into your time machine and brought back audio gear- what would it be? Tubes and my old vinyl... Maybe a TT. | |
| Single driver speakers. Are they worth considering ? I am still running a pair of Cain&Cain Abby's that use a Fostex single driver and a Voigt pipe design. They have kept pace with my other upgrades, and I love them. Although their bass is surprisingly good, there's nothing to stop one from addi... | |
| Connecting a DAC directly to an amp? I run my Monarchy NM24 direct to the LTA Z10 amp; sounds better than with an additional pre-amp. | |
| When to replace old drivers? DeKay, I think I was the one who got that pair--great price, and when I saw how few of them are left out there... Good insurance. Yes, the LTA is a fantastic amp; although the ZOTL10 is listed as "power amp" it has a line stage an works just fine ... |
