Suggestions on improvement I'd suggest upgrading components before any tweaks. | |
Looking at these specific preamps give me your opinions The Townshend Audio Allegri Reference Passive preamp is very good. Not true balanced though but that keeps the circuitry to a minimum. | |
Those magical days when the HVAC is off Some great ideas given! I had planned to wrap my upstairs air handler in soundproofing blankets and I bought Dynamat to line the inside of my air handler access wood door. But at the lower air grille intake/electrostatic 23.5"x23.5" air filter i... | |
Live Vibe Audio I wonder how Live Vibe racks compare to Sound Anchors racks as they appear to be the same material. Matte Stainless Steel. Although Sound Anchors steel bars are hollow and filled with sand. I you bought Live Vibe decoupler sets and placed them t... | |

Looking for a great front ported bookshelp speaker recommendation Fischer & Fischer SN 70's. HANDS DOWN. | |
Finding a Bookshelf for Luxman C900U/M900U Fischer & Fischer SN 70's cannot be beat by any other bookshelf speaker for the price. $4500. | |
Relaxed/Analog sounding DAC for under $10k (used or new) Playback Designs MPD-6 would be my #1 choice. EMM Labs DAC #2. | |

Stack Audio Auva Isolator @tommyu @ozzy Love the conversations. Thanks guys...It is so confusing to figure out but you’re experiences help. I have sold my Townshend springs/platform/podiums(although I still use Townshend's Isolation corners for my 400 pound Sound Anchors ... | |
Is it possible for a high end manufacturer to overprice their goods? If it's one of the best sounding speakers in the world, it fits your listening room and you can afford it, what does it matter. It will be appreciated and give joy as much or more than a Patek Phillipe or other super expensive watch. It's all rela... | |
Stack Audio Auva Isolator @wcheng2 @ozzy Have you, or anyone here, tried Live Vibe Audio’s brass cones/discs? OCD Mikey and others swear by them. Mikey has tried Townshend Pods and many other isolators and he feels brass is the best. https://livevibeaudio.com/audio-poin... | |
Isolation devices- to use 3 or 4 footers? Anyone here use the brass cones from Live Vibe Audio? OCD Mikey raves about them. He's tried Townshend springs and finds the brass better. He hasn't tried Stacks yet. |
