The puck is signed by a buddy of mine that played in a local adult recreational hockey league in Denver. He scored a hat trick and I asked him to sign and send me the puck. He never played organized hockey beyond high school.

I had very slight woofer pumping when I was using my Manley Chinook phono stage playing over 80 decibels. I bought a Pass Labs XP-17 phonostage & the woofer pumping was out of control even at mid volume levels. The floor to ceiling drapes behind the speakers were moving. I tried everything to contain the pumping because I liked the XP-17, but with no success. I then purchased a T+A phono stage (amp is T+A) and have no woofer pumping from playing vinyl. Sound is also even better. System synergy between matching components prevails. |
Absolute Sound just gave the Isoacoustic Orea and Gaia a Golden Ear Award. 80% of the performance of the really high end stuff at 20% of the price. http://www.theabsolutesound.com/articles/2020-golden-ear-awards-matt-clott/ All the best, Nonoise |
Try these, which are one of the dirty little secrets in audio. They work perfectly, won’t break the bank, and don’t soften the sound. I use them under all of my components. https://www.supplyhouse.com/DiversiTech-MP-2E-EVA-Anti-Vibration-Pad-2-x-2-x-7-8 |
rlb61, Great suggestion trying these EVA's. I am using them under some components and the 4"X4" cork-laminated ones under my heavy amps. I can't honest attest to greater SQ, but the cost is a trifling so it is a sensible place to start on the quest for component isolation. I put the GAIA Orea's under my Spatial Audio speakers and they perform exactly as advertised. Frankly, they outperformed many component upgrades I have done in the past. |
