I am somewhat amazed that there is no thread dealing with Star Sound Tech's devices


I have their Rhythm platforms and rack, their new 2.5" Audio Points (2.5AP-1AINT, and new self-holding coupling cups (APCD4-Invert). All of them are great improvements in my system. There are certainly other contributing factors, but if you want realism in the hologram before you, all of these are worth considering. Each is superior to its predecessor still among the Star Sound products. I have done this comparison in all cases and each is quite a good deal better. I am where I never thought reproduced music would never allow me. I must say that what I am hearing is really the sound perspective of the microphones, not of the good seat audience. Maybe the conductor has always heard what I'm hearing but I have had perfect seats in Chicago Orchestra Hall and have not heard. I have spent more on these items than I have on those seats each concert but these are enduring.

If realism, not just music, is your pursuit, I would strongly suggest you try them. I am hearing great performances and totally thrilled.

tbg,

You have been around Audiogon for a long time. How is it that you haven't seen the many threads discussing their great products? There are many members who use them, myself included, and yes, they're great. 

I use the older ones under the integrated amp. They are good but nothing spectacular. Unlike Boston Audio tuneblocks for speakers, now that was big improvement.
How does star sound compete with critical mass?, critical mass has won nearly every best product award there is .
