looking for best isolation platform for CD player

As I mentioned in an earlier post, if Tom likes it its a great product. That said, Joe, who was, after my silliness as to who posted what, contacted me graciously. He listened to my description of energy transference and said it had merit. I am not saying its the best, but I do know it can work under properly used conditions. With 70# of suspended mass, and energy flow into this mass, assuming the transfer takes place with proper and (appropriate) mechanical impedences it can help. I am sure, like amps and preamps there are many good answers. I am pleased that this thread is so positive now, with all of us agreeing that many things work to varying degrees. I would like to hear Joe's and Tom's, and vice versa. Mine is, as I said a homemade, though difficult project,cheaper, but agreeing with Joe in his mention of the phrase stratopheric pricing. That's the shame of this.
Hey Tom, can you give us some idea of how much, and where to go to see pictures of the products you're talking about? Joe, same here, how do we see more?
My (and I think our collective) goal is better sound however we do it.
Tom, does your product work on all pieces, cd, turntable, preamps, etc, or does it have a particular strength, where its better? Joe, same question.
Mine while probably not as sophistocated,(or maybe expensive either)usually works on everything to a degree, with lead acting as RFI inhibitor, as a bonus, and energy transfer. It would be great to get several together to check this all out. The Grail is pretty elusive, at least to me! You guys have me interested. I for one do not find the old tip toes or similar items to help that much on anything but turntables. Sorry just IMHO! So don't get mad.
Good Listening,
Larry

Joe, you might want to speak with Dennis Gulino who also is a member of the Chicago Audio Society and who has a Sistrum rack. For what it's worth, Robert Maicks of Audio Machine & Design (makers of Sistrum and Audiopoints products) visited the club quite a few months ago and talked about and demonstrated some of the products. A different approach and a different set of objectives, from what I can tell.

Larry go to Audiopoints.com All their products are a continuim..I feel all of them, that I use are based on the same for me common logic..resonant energy transfer. Yes the platforms and racks work across the board with every kind of device cd dvd pre--power --speakers and even pig screen tv; Gee they to are all a continuim of resonance. Get that shit out of Dodge..When it leaves and has a place to go the end result is much better sound and video..So here I go again touting the shit I use and I feel is the best and the only sensible way to get There..Leaving myself open again but I am not going to change unless Joe or some other good natured fellow can show me different... Until then I will enjoy the direct coupled effect..Yea Baby.....Tom

I feel much the same way Tom does. I like what I have and I'm not going to change until I hear something better. I have a Berning ZH270 amp. It is a wonderful tube amp but only weighs 10 pounds. The platform that Larry designed has improved the already spectacular sound of the Berning. If you have a Berning, make this platform--buy it or steal it or something!!! It makes a huuuuuuge difference.

Tom/Theaudiotweak:

Do you, in any way, have financial ties/interests with the Sistrum products?

A simple yes/no would be great/super.

Thanks,

DeKay
