My engineer claims that the metal cover acts as a shield. It should never be removed.
Same goes for the tube amps.

Most useful tweaks that are sensible and really make a noticeable improvement
So after reading the thread of useless tweaks I'd be interested the communities opinions of useful tweaks. I may be rehashing a previous thread but times change as do useful tweaks.
I have found that in my case the following were useful, immediate and audible,
In order of priority in my opinion
1 Room treatment
2 Speaker location, ie proper setup
3 Subwoofer location (if used)
4 Subwoofer integration
5 Component isolation
6 Cables, all SC/IC etc, normally I would not mention cables but did have an ear opening epiphany that makes me believe cables are system dependant and I do not mean directionality.
So if anybody has anything to add, please do so as none of us are ever too old to learn.

Geoffkait: i think its a NYC thing. I lived on a busy thoroughfare in NoHo / East Village. Dozens of taxicabs go by per hour. When I removed the cage, the RF went way up. Now that I’m in Newburgh, I should try removing the cage and see what happens. my engineer worked for NY Audiolabs. He built my amps while there, and he recently converted them to triode. He’s Al Kooper’s cousin. I think he knows what he’s talking about. |
The Ghia isolation feet are beautiful, I'd love a set for my Omen Mkiis. I'm currently using these cheap pads, https://mnpctech.com/isolation-pads-for-vibration/speaker-and-subwoofer-isolation-foam-pads-feet-pack-of-four.html
