Under server: Stillpoints Ultra 6's / amp: Critical Mass Black Diamond shelf & Center Stage footers (4) / Under speakers: Nordost SortFut / REL subs: Arya Audio RevOpods / Under conditioner, grou... | |
| The Best Isolation/ Vibration Footers per component - what's your experience? The bass tightened up but it was all there this time. The soundstage widened and deepened. I even gained some imaging-which is not the strong suit of these excellent loudspeakers. I was going to return the Orea Indigos. Now, I don’t think so. I wi... | |

It is extremely difficult to make a rack as good as no rack, ie the floor. A rack puts everything up high closer to ear level and reflects sound more because its ... | |
| The Best Isolation/ Vibration Footers per component - what's your experience? just ordered a set of Revopods to try under my turntable. I’ll circle back and let everyone know how it goes.Great, thanks! I was thinking of this myself, but probably for the pre-amp or amplifier, since the Centerstage are even more expensive. I ... | |

A/V RoomService EVP (equipment vibration protectors) are very effective and less costly than most of the commercial products listed in this thread.I haven't tried many of the products listed above but I've found the EVP to work well in all the app... | |
| The Best Isolation/ Vibration Footers per component - what's your experience? In addition, one of the things I am trying is removing the rack (I am using Artesania, with 3 levels) and see if the sound improves if the equipment is on the floor or at least closer to the floor. I have heard some experts say and also saw on Avs... | |
| The Best Isolation/ Vibration Footers per component - what's your experience? Thanks everyone for responding and keeping this thread up and running. I haven't been able to respond to each of you with all great ideas. Ofcourse there is no problem in adding more vibration/ isolation brands to the list mentioned in the origina... | |
| The Best Isolation/ Vibration Footers per component - what's your experience? Hi, @ebm Thanks for the feedback! Didn’t know you were using Centerstage already.Where do you feel the Magico Qpods and Alto Extremo where better sounding than the Centerstage?I see some people slowly selling all or most of their Stillpoints to bu... | |

| The “They are here” vs “You are there” sound topic Its all there. Read it again. There's a word or two that matter you seem not to have caught, and instead have latched onto a couple that aren't mentioned because they don't. One word in particular matters a whole hell of a lot, and you went right ... | |

To stir things up, would you say that in most cases you feel the below speakers tend to emphasise one or the other more:- B & W = they are h... |
