| Footers under new speakers @buellrider97 I never got a chance to do a direct comparison with the Isoacoustics with my Townshend Podiums. My Townshend podiums are directly on the carpet and the speakers are not spiked to the platform. Based on my experiments, de-coupling v... | |
| Footers under new speakers @signaforce this is a recent video on isolation footers on Steve Guttenbergs channel and I thought it was well done. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAOD3aUfIYQ&t=629s | |
| Footers under new speakers @signaforce I would imagine that the Isoacoustics gaia would work in your situation. You would also need the carpet disks. Their products are offered on Amazon and if you didn't like them you could always return them. The question for Isoacoust... | |
| Chair Yes the Stressles are expensive and there are a couple of reasons to get one. The quality and comfort are excellent. I currently have a home theater chair in my listening room. It's too bulky and the most of these chairs have a back that is too... | |
| Digital Room Correction vs Room Treatments @captouch In keeping along the spring concept like Townshend, amazon has the nobsound or other spring puck like products for around $20 for four pucks. It's an inexpensive purchase to experiment. The Isoacoustics products are reported to be good... | |
| Digital Room Correction vs Room Treatments @captouch the reason for asking is that have my audio room is on a second story suspended wood floor and was experiencing a bump in the 80 to 100 hz range that was a problem. The room has modest accoustic treatments (bass traps, first reflection ... | |
| Digital Room Correction vs Room Treatments @captouch just curious are your speakers isolated or coupled to the floor and is it concrete or a suspended wood floor? | |
| The new dCS Varese DAC...it is so good that all others are now relegated to history?? I have heard their new Varese stack with a direct comparison to their previous model. Yes it sounded better via the Wilson speakers as well it should. That being said, who knows how it sounds to other top tier kits, I will never know. | |
| Footers under new speakers @buellrider97 is there a specific problem you are trying to solve? The podiums have an adjustment on each of the corners that can balance uneaven loads either front to back or side to side. The size 3 would work and it's about the same profile ... | |
| Integrated that blew you away Lots of good suggestions. I was looking for an integrated only, no phono, streamer or dac. It had to have sufficient power and current and was replacing my mono blocks and preamp and couldn't be too heavy. I stumbled on the Alluxity brand from ... | |
| Footers under new speakers I can give me experience with Townshend podiums. My situation is having my speakers on a second story wood framed construction with carpet. I was getting bass modes and transmission issues via the floor. I tried spikes, no spikes, gliders, lime... | |
| Help with possible integrated amp change for better match with my speakers. I would guess that you should start with your source (CD player). I recently changed my player (Modified Marantz) with an Esoteric player. It allows the details, depth and soundstage to expand. It is like a veil has been removed and also improv... | |
| Have you reached your end point with this addictive hobby? I just completed my last upgrade to my system with a new SACD player and consolidating my electronics into an integrated amplifer / pre amp as well as some cable changes and simplification. I don't plan on any other changes unless something break... | |
| PS Audios new PMG series.. I believe thare are three manufactures that actuall make their CD/SACD transports for their players.There be more but Esoteric. Luxman and Marantz. | |
| How to choose speakers that won't overpower your room? @zlone you didn't mention a budget. Some good suggestions regarding speakers that are designed to be placed close to the front wall. Also if there was a sealed woofer design or a front port vs. a rear port that might work better. I think a good... |
