OK, I put a dollar bill on my amp and nothing happened. I even tried saying "Novus Ordo Seclurum' 3 times fast. Whose eye is that, anyway? And why is it looking at me. I'm gonna take another yellow one and stick with vibrapods, at least they don't stare back.
New Listener Mag Tweak Issue
Latest issue, july/aug reviews many tweaks that members here have been recommending for years now including
Symposium rollerblocks
Symposium platforms/shelf
Aurios MIB
Nueance shelf
Walker HDL (high definition links)
Shun Mook Mpingo disc
Nordost Pulsar points
Vibraplane
Like to hear members reactions to reviewers findings. No surprise that rollerblocks and MIBs produced more detail under CDP, they recommend double stack tungsten rollerblock
set-up, but this is $700 of tweak per unit! I like the fact
that one reviewer did not always think enhanced detail retreval was an improvement, and maybe less musical. BTW they should have used the drop of teflon oil tweak for rollerblocks, does help.
If you want an idea of what doublestack rollerblocks sound like at 1/7 the cost try a set of daruma II for $99, check the tweak section there is a member Doug Kerns who is selling them and he does fast turnaround. Gives about 75%
the improvement for fraction of cost.
Redkiwi fav the Nueance shelf was well received and one of the more sanely priced tweaks. Things become more confusing when they combine shelfs and bearing isolation together.
I would really like some member here to confirm that 2" $50 wood disc placed on gear/speakers makes noticeable improvement in sound, refering to Shun Mook Mpingo disc.
The reviewer was just too positive about these, I have hard time believing this, any members tried these?
Comments please.
