Stillpoint Ultras anyone?

phono amp +/- €1500

Cheap tweaks...What would YOU reccomend?
76doublebass, I've done that with all sorts of cushions including those with shells of nuts in them. I just cannot agree at all. Perhaps they are better than a tv table. 
Do you believe in Magic?
Most of the illustrations are visual, but the key is that we don't know everything. 
Stillpoint Ultras anyone?
Jpan, try the StillPoint Ultra Fives, if you dare. 
Do you believe in Magic?
Mrtennis, you sound like a scientist, not a EE. 
Halcyonics under my tt. Wow
Audiofun, put four StillPoints Ultra Fives under your tt, please. Let us know what you hear.
