I tried just spiking them through the carpet and into the wood floors. Undefined bass. Then I tried them spiked to granite bases. Improved mids and highs. No... | |
| Origin Live Turntables? I can't speak for their turntables but their custom belt transformed my Well Tempered TT. Highly recommended. | |

| Synergistic Red Fuse ... schubert ..."I know its heresy but I always thought Sarah was better than Ella." Not heresy at all. Its the down to earth truth. There's just more soul being released from Sarah, and its transferred to the heart of the listener. In reading your's ... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... ^^^ And don't forget, there's a break-in time of @100 hours. They really do improve quite a bit over time. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Charles ...Thanks ... I'm listening to Tardo Hammer as I'm writing this. Another musician I've never heard of. Love his break out on the first cut ("Focus") of the Look, Stop and Listen album. As I continue to listen I hear a real tight group. Exc... | |
