Adona Equipment Racks
roxy54, You are right I have had no actual experience with the Adona Racks. However, I thought about purchasing them. But I did not read/see any type of special isolation built into them. So how can they improve sound quality over just a good so... 
Heavy speakers: How to be able to reposition?
I also used furniture gliders to move my 230lb speakers until I found the best spot to spike them. ozzy  
Your thoughts on best audiophile speakers in $10,000 neighborhood?

Adona Equipment Racks

Planar Speakers and Diffusors
Thanks! I guess what we are finding out is there is not just one approach to maximizing our systems and soundstage. Everything is a variable that should be explored. Happy Easter to all! ozzy  
Cable Break In for the Naysayers
ptss, I’ll have to review it. Thanks! ozzy  
Planar Speakers and Diffusors
Thank you for some very good information. The DC3 Multiuser, QRD diffusers, along with adding a couple plants interests me. At this time, I’m going without front wall/behind speaker treatment. The soundstage is huge as it is! But I am such a tw...
