| Racks: Box Funriture vs Sistrum Those of you that had better sound with the Box Furniture flat footers vs. the spikes, can you tell me if your system is on carpet or some other hard surface?Thank you......getting a new Box rack this week. | |
| Harmonic Resolution Systems (HRS) Platforms Hi Rzado,Thank you for the feedback....much appreciated!I will look into Accurion and Herzan.A dealer friend of mine sell racks from a company called HiFi Racks Ltd, out of the UK. Family owned and been in business for about 9 years I believe.They... | |
| Harmonic Resolution Systems (HRS) Platforms Hi Lalitk,Thank you for the excellent feedback. I assumed that Core was similar to Box Furniture.....I did not realize that Core was an isolation solution. If I like the Core rack, and can sell the M3x HRS platforms, I'll save some cash overall. A... | |
| Harmonic Resolution Systems (HRS) Platforms Hi Chayro,I agree 100%. But with all the variables involved, I'm going to have to give it my best guess and hope that I'm right.I won't know for sure until I get it into my listening room.Meanwhile the dealer I'm working with is very good, so I'm ... | |
| Harmonic Resolution Systems (HRS) Platforms Hi Randy-11,The rack will be placed on thin carpet, with wood flooring underneath.I think I know what you are getting at. A concrete floor would be better. Labpro. | |
| Harmonic Resolution Systems (HRS) Platforms Hi Lalitk,As we know, there are 2 main approaches to audio racks......those that resonate and become part of the sound (box furniture) and those that isolate (SRA and HRS). I did some research on Core, and my impression was that because it does no... | |
| Harmonic Resolution Systems (HRS) Platforms Hi goheelz,I play a lot of vinyl. I use a Well Tempered turntable.My system is mostly tubed (except for the transport). Randy-11, thanks for the comment about separating components. Also I will do some additional research on maple and other hard w... | |
| Harmonic Resolution Systems (HRS) Platforms Hi Randy-11,By placing the HRS platforms on a wood surface that is intended to "resonate" versus "isolate," the midrange sounded as though it had a film covering it. That is why I'm trying to determine if a solid wood surface, like the one that ma... | |
| Harmonic Resolution Systems (HRS) Platforms Hi Tom6897,I admire your resourcefulness. The Ikea Lack table is very inexpensive. The low cost Salamander rack I currently have, is also made of heavy MDF, and it sounds pretty decent. I'm going to take a chance on a walnut hi fi racks system.htt... | |
| Harmonic Resolution Systems (HRS) Platforms Hi Roxy5 and Randy-11,I looked at the adona racks. Interesting. Thank you, I'll research further. Randy-11, the issue is a bit complicated. If I place my HRS platforms on a solid walnut rack, I'd like to know if the wood rack will dampen (kill) th... | |
| Well Tempered and EMT JSD S75 Cartridge Hi fjn04,You are correct......I am running the EMT TDS-15, Auditorium T-2 and the Amadeus MkII, as currently pictured on the Well Tempered Labs Web site.Labpro | |
| Well Tempered and EMT JSD S75 Cartridge Hi Fin04 and Jperry,Thank you for the feedback. Once I get the new analogue front end in place, I'll post some photos. Jperry, I saw your system photos......impressive! Perhaps one day I'll get a Garrard 301. I'm hoping that this Well Tempered/EMT... | |
| Tube Power Amp Suggestions This may not be a very popular response to the SET vs. 91db speaker question, but after trying many SET amps on my 94db Coincident speakers, and not finding the "SET magic" that I wanted, I bought a more efficient (96db Cessaro Chopin) speaker and... |
