| Why Does A Concrete Floor/Spiked Metal Rack... Trapped, internally generated electro-mechanical resonance as well as airborne resonance, loss of efficiency and no fast way out. As I see it..Tom | |
| Best Isolation Device for Speakers? Twl is correct. I too have measured an increase in spl when using the Sistrum of about 1.5 to 2db.. This was measured in the retail showroom with an Audiocontrol RTA..Oh and these are not isolation devices and if you were to try to dampen or isola... | |
| Best Isolation Device for Speakers? I recently left the confines of working for a retailer that sold Thiel speakers..I know from experience the Thiel's will improve as much as any speaker I have ever tried either the Audiopoints or the Sistrum platforms on. It is because of the Thie... | |
| Plasma Bracket for above Fireplace question??? There are various brackets available. Vantage, Pivotelli.Draper look on the net.. Pioneer and others recommend not putting a plasma tv over a fireplace that will be put to use.Plasma tv's are heat sensitive devices that is why many have fans. I kn... | |
| anyone have any experince with audiostatic spks Lrsky use to sell these speakers at the store he once owned..Tom | |
| Why Does A Concrete Floor/Spiked Metal Rack... Dekay spikes or spiked platforms have always worked for me and my friends who have dis-similar equipement but the same floor material...concrete. Because some may have a poor experience when they add a new device to their system does not mean that... | |
| Why Does A Concrete Floor/Spiked Metal Rack... So you think I was kidding about the cryo'd materials for a rack. The most efficient means of energy transfer and the preservation of the musical event is what I strive for in all my components.Tom | |
| Why Does A Concrete Floor/Spiked Metal Rack... If you were to cyro the support rods and the internal conductors and the Micro Bearing fill and the shelves and the Audiopoints you would be coupled even more closely to the music....Align the molecules. The most direct coupled high speed resonanc... | |
| Why Does A Concrete Floor/Spiked Metal Rack... I feel Stehno is correct, coupling is very revealing of the whole system. For coupling to work properly it must be carried thru the entire system..No dampening no energy storage. It is like a direct coupled amplfier no capacitive storage no blurr ... | |
| Isolation/coupling: basics? So if you knew it were to vibrate and you knew of a way to direct the vibration away from its own self would you be inclined to dampen the initial vibrating device?...Tom | |
| What is the best Beatle Song They are all the best. Each time of day may present a different outlook and hence a more poignant Beatles song..Tom | |
| Why Does A Concrete Floor/Spiked Metal Rack... Changing one thing will not eliminate the problem.Changing one thing will only mask and fail to eliminate the inherent problem. The root cause of the problem still exists. Dampening is another storage medium. Tom | |
| Why Does A Concrete Floor/Spiked Metal Rack... You now have stored and impeded the exit of resonant energy when you added the sand to your rack..You have a conflict of mechanics within the rack itself. You say the rack is designed to couple and then you filled it with dampening material. One w... | |
| Isolation Questions One correct answer. Collage is not the one. | |
| Linn Basik Tonearm - effective mass? Well let me flash back 20 years or so..I sold and set up many Linn tables, Lp12 and Ittok. Linn Basik table with Basik arm and many of these combos with Joe Grado cartridges. I had a Lp12 with Ittok and Grado Signatures many many variations and ne... |
