Racquetball isolation platform perfection
Hi Bob,I considered using different balls, but after doing some research online, I found where a university science and engineering class did a research study on the properties of racquetballs. While this covered literally EVERY property imagineab... 
Racquetball isolation platform perfection
Stanwal : Thanks for your input. I'm a little leery of using anything heavier for my platform material. Here's why: I have some lead weight bags from a dive shop, and tried weighting down the source sitting on the racquetball platform I made. No a...

Lexicon RT-20 ... Interesting lack of information
I sure do appreciate evryone's input and advice. I spent another day searching the web, and found an additional couple of reviews on the RT-20. It seems this is what I'll be buying. I'll just get a cheap Blu Ray player later if I feel the need.
