Footers- Break In? Such A Change.
magnuman, I am not sure about the Critical Mass footers for speakers. However, with my new speakers: (Clarisys Minute, when they arrive) they may / or may not be an option, I’m not sure. The new speakers look to have aluminum feet so it may be a ... 
Radical toe in once more
Interesting topic. I will (hopefully) have new speakers next week. They are of the Planar/ribbon design. I have been told that they should be placed with no toe in, no absorptive materials behind them or at 1st reflection points and place them abo... 
Warranty repair wait times - serious industry problem??
I had a Tascam recorder that was at the warranty repair service for over 4 months. I was told some people had been waiting for over a year! Sorta of like a badge of honor? Anyway, they said if I wanted to pay extra, I could move up the waiting li... 
Sopra 2 Amp Recommendation
With Focal Sopra 2's I was using the Bob Carver Raven 350 WPC mono blocks running straight out from a Lumin X1. Loved the combo. ozzy  
What speaker could safely be ordered without hearing it first?
If you read the latest on Positive Feedback, there is a recent review about the Clarisys Minute speakers. Those are the exact speakers I am getting! So, they should be broken in when I get them.  I just hope the reviewer hasn't wore them out... ...

I really hope these sound as good as the reviews say, it was definitely a stretch for me financially. ozzy

ghdprentice, I ordered the Clarisys Minuet. Hopefully, I will have them soon. Maybe this week, but probably next week. ozzy  
Footers- Break In? Such A Change.
I really think both products are amazing. But thus far I have only tried the Townshend Podiums under my speakers and the CM footers under components. My next speaker unfortunately will not be able to try either product based on the way they are d... 
Puron Plug-In AC Power Conditioner; Impressions 😁
I have posted many times about the benefit of using a Puron in the outlet that the Modem, Router, EtherRegen, AfterDark clock etc. is in. Streaming quality is definitely improved, providing a larger soundstage. ozzy  
Focal Sopra 2
Hurricane, earthquakes, flooding, mud slides, and now rattlesnakes getting into the flooding!  Never a storm like this in 84 years in this area!  Just because I ordered new speakers?  I do hope everyone stays safe. ozzy  
Focal Sopra 2
Yeah, now I hear there are earthquakes! Yikes! ozzy  
Focal Sopra 2
Yes, I am still using tube amps. I don’t know about the speakers I am getting; they must be jinxed. The reviewer I am getting them from is shipping them from California, they are on a truck at the terminal in Fontana. At this moment, there is an ... 
Focal Sopra 2
I just traded in my long loved Sopra 2's I hope I don't regret it. Anyway, I was using tube amps. But I think they will sound good on just about any amp. ozzy  
What speaker could safely be ordered without hearing it first?
Hopefully the speakers I just ordered. I can’t believe I have done this again. But based on reviews I just had to have them. And there was simply no way to hear them first. In the past I have purchased several types of speakers without hearing th... 
Major innovative break through: The new NSMT Loudspeakers reference speaker
Terry, but I thought you considered the Tekton speakers to be the greatest? How would these compare to them? ozzy
