| Nobsound springs - load range Thanks for the prompt response. Will look into it now. I've just removed one spring each from the rear footers and the gap looks even now. Will do some manual compression after you have made the suggestion. | |
| Nobsound springs - load range After installing the Nobsound springs under 4 feet of the component, I found the degree of compression at all 4 corners to be dissimilar. The gap of the springs at the front appears to be smaller than the rear. This may suggest that the component ... | |

| Sonus Faber surprise The Sonus Faber Grand Piano Concerto used to be my "high end" speakers back in the day. It must have been more than 25 years since I listened to these. They Grand Piano Concerto is the floorstander version of the Sonus Faber Concerto. The HOME ser... | |
| Mcintosh amp stock pwr cord only 4 ft??? I think 4 ft is standard. I personally use 5 ft "boutique" power cords as that’s the length which they are commonly offered. 6 ft and above are usually for special applications. Are you able to shift the equipment or rack so as the length of the c... | |
| D’Agostino progression preamp It looks a bit like Nagra. Perhaps you are paying more for build quality and looks(which is an acquired taste) , rather than sound quality. I’m not sure if the Progression will sound significantly better than other options in the same price range ... | |
| Isoacoustics Orea vs Townshend Seismic Pod on Components Thanks all for the responses. I've ordered the Nobsound. They will be used on the amps as I don't use subs. The Townshend Pods are a bit rich for me with their premium prices. Perhaps next time. | |
| New Dynaudio Heritage Special..?..! Great news. I am a fan of mid sized monitors too. The Heritage Special should offer an improved and grown up sound from the S40 that you currently own. Enjoy ~ | |
| Best SS Amp - Pass Labs X350.8 vs. Luxman M900u vs. Ayre VX-R Twenty Good to know it’s the Luxman M900U which got the nod. This post may not add much value to the thread. I noticed there are few comments here on the bass of the Luxman that’s lacking in comparison to other options. Although I don’t own the M900U, I... | |

| Nobsound springs - load range - 4 units, 6 springs each: 60 kg - 4 units, 7 springs each: 70 kgLoad can be considerably higher than expected (somewhere I read about 36kg, which is presumably for 4 units). From my understanding the maximum load capacity of 4 Nobsound unit... | |
| "warm" solid state integrated amplifier jjss49 3,802 posts 11-16-2021 1:05am my recent experience (a borrowed 590x class a/b unit, for about 6 weeks) I presume it's not 590X but 509X? FWIW although the 590AXII Class A has a slightly warm tone, it doesn't sound overly warm.... | |
| Isoacoustics Orea vs Townshend Seismic Pod on Components The Nobsound springs arrived yesterday and I put them under my Audio Note Cobra. This amp has been sitting on an Ethan Allen wooden cabinet, beautiful, but not an audiophile accessory. The change is pretty dramatic- more dimension, better focus, ... | |
| "warm" solid state integrated amplifier All valid suggestions. Tweaks and isolation devices for equipment (and speakers) such as Nobsound springs or other equivalent products will be useful. Apart from these products, room furnishing or treatment and placement of speakers will also help... |
