| Building stands for Harbeth 40.2's Yogi or Whipsaw- should I use some form of protection on the top of the extended tenon ? I don't want to damage the bottom of the speaker. Maybe some form of protective coating or thin rubber top ? I used nothing, and there were no marks on th... | |
| Building stands for Harbeth 40.2's Does anyone have the dimension of the extended tenon on the TonTragers ? I’ll take a stab from memory alone: ~20mm high and 20mm wide | |
| Building stands for Harbeth 40.2's if insulting me does help, please have at it. If you take at as an insult that I am pointing out the absurdity of your claim, that’s on you. There are many characterizations of the TonTragers, including negative ones, that would not be hyperbo... | |
| Building stands for Harbeth 40.2's "the TonTraegers look hideous" ... Also, my opinion is not hyperbolic. 🤣🤣🤣 | |
| Building stands for Harbeth 40.2's @grislybutter Yes, of course it was implied that it was your opinion. The question that I was attempting to get at is what value you might possibly add to a conversion by calling a design that a high percentage of Harbeth owners happen to find a... | |
| Building stands for Harbeth 40.2's To each his own. But if they’re not to your liking, you felt compelled, at least in this instance, to assert that they’re "hideous"?! 😂 | |
| Building stands for Harbeth 40.2's @akg_ca Thank you. To be clear, I was happy with the TonTragers, and do believe that they are well-designed to compliment Harbeth speakers. My pedantry stems primarily from my experiences with isolation devices under speakers, which, when proper... | |
| Building stands for Harbeth 40.2's I used TonTrager with my 30.1, and they were excellent. They also looked very attractive (the photos posted is not a good one to judge by). But let's be clear about something: the speakers are not decoupled from the stands. | |
| AUDIO SCIENCE REVIEW and $50 to spend......... I find it remarkable that some posters are incapable of taking @prof seriously. His views are well-founded, typically well articulated, and as balanced as anyone's could be, especially on contentious topics. He also has relevant professional expe... | |

| Shunyata Alpha HC Ztron power cord (discontinued) vs Shunyata Venom V10 NR cord (current) I'll PM you. | |
| Shunyata Alpha HC Ztron power cord (discontinued) vs Shunyata Venom V10 NR cord (current) FWIW, Grant (of Shunyata) was very helpful to me when I was considering various used options. I ended up with a Black Mamba CX HC, which he recommended highly. That was a couple of years ago, and I had a more recent exchange with him in which he ... | |
| Denafrips Pontus II Clicks Or Static? A couple of related notes. While it is possible that the problem has finally been resolved, it was never apparent in the experience of all users, only (I would estimate) a relatively small percentage. So the fact that some users of the newest vers... | |
| Denafrips Pontus II Clicks Or Static? @designsfx Thanks. I have mentioned this a number of times previously, but Alvin, Denafrips' representative in Singapore, was always very communicative and helpful. However, the company itself has, in my view, handled this situation poorly, and ... |
