| equipment interface to rack tweaks Rhl..To answer your reluctance to place your equipment directly on the points of the Sistrum shelves you could place the apcd discs between the component and the point. This is sometimes a preferred method of transmission for me. It is dependent o... | |
| equipment interface to rack tweaks Hello out there. I ordered the rods and nuts from a local agent for a local or national vendor. I need to find the receipt. I will look and post the info on here when I find it. Tom | |
| Mono block suggestions Harmonic Precision mono-blocs each sitting on a Sistrum Sp101 is a beautiful industrial design waiting to play music. HP amps with the complete Vishay resistor upgrade package are dynamically coherent. Speed and finesse are truly beautiful on a hu... | |
| Poll: Which rack s would you use and why? Sistrum rack between your loudspeakers actually improves soundstage focus and image height. I do not know how, or why this could be. I hear this in my system to be true. If anyone out there has experience with Argent Room Lens then they know by mo... | |
| Looking For High Quality Equipment Rack Resonance transfer can be completed on hardwood or tile with the addition of Sistrum APCD discs under the Audiopoint attached to the bottom of each vertical pillar of a Sistrum rack or platform. This disc is designed to be a collector on one side ... | |
| What to use as a subwoofer amp Aragon amps should also be added to your list of high value high impact sub amps.. Tom | |
| What to use as a subwoofer amp Since 1981 I have been using stereo subs. First of course with passive subs and then subs with internal power. Phase Linear 400 and 700 at that time where both ill defined and proved to be unstable. Dynaco 400 and SAE 3cm where much the better amp... | |
| Best Stand For AR Amp and PS Audio P600 Sistrum stands are absolute enhancement devices that will allow you for the first time to truly hear your system. Speak to Robert at Starsound..Tom | |
| Bent Silver TX102 compared to Placette RVC A very interesting and well written thread. My personal experience with the mentioned control devices are none. I do have experience though with the substitution of Vishay resistors over many other highly touted brands. I can vouch for the the muc... | |
| speaker stands on wood floors Don, I have found it best to use the Audiopoint APCD discs from Starsound under the points of speakers rather than having the point go directly into the wood. Beause of the shape of the disc, more resonance is captured off the point and transfered... | |
| speaker stands on wood floors Soft chewey centers? What are you guys talking about? If it is lead or sand they are damping components. Lead and sand and rubber are storage devices. These materials do not transfer the resonant energy many of you are voicing, rightfully so, that... | |
| Digital isolation. Am I doing this correctly? Warren, you may have some loss of absolute benefit by using the same common outlet.. In theory and probably also in practice you would be better all the way around to have two duplex outlets each with their own dedicated supply and each with their... | |
| Putting floorstanding speakers on stands... Sistrum SP101's under my still almost Dunlavy SCiv's make a marked improvement.. The way these platforms are built allows me to adjust and compensate for floor irregularites left to right and align the tweeters so they are slightly north of my ear... | |
| Looking for isolation suggestions... Kentucky oysters work well for me. These babies make everything more natural and fluid like, while at the same time maintaining the tactile sense of space and air around the instruments. They are a real bargain..Tom | |
| Krell KSA200s bi-wire vs. 2 Yamaha MX1000 bi-amp Yamaha amps are wimpy. No dynamics and are 2 dimensional at best. The Krell will have more bass control and present a very good rendition of a soundstage and musical contrasts. |
