Footers- Break In? Such A Change.
Thanks for those posts. The Starsound breaking in does seem strange also. I have never heard of the Black Ravioli are they pads? The Critical Mass footers do seem to have some type of mechanism inside, I just don’t know what. ozzy  
Focal Sopra, Kanta, Aria
Well I own the Focal Sopra 2's. And I don't find them bright. But, I also have treated my room with ASC tube traps and Stillpoints Apertures. I also have tube mono block amps. And, cabling that works well with my equipment. So, as the cliché goes... 
Footers- Break In? Such A Change.

Is an isolation transformer better than a power conditioner?
gdnrbob, Funny that he compared the top of the line PS Audio P-20 unit to the second from the top AudioQuest. While the top of the line AudioQuest Niagara 7000 is similar in price to the PS P-20. Also, why was it necessary to use a 3 meter Hurri...

SoundApproach does not honor its agreements
Sounds like everyone who works there is a Director of something. Probably 2-3 people run the whole operations. Thanks for making me aware of their poor customer service, I will avoid them. ozzy
