hi,
its good to see some familiar friends involved in discussion, i have found threw trial and error that there are some great isolation products out there that will enhance the performance of ones electronics, i believe there are so many choices that it is confusing which product to use. There is also budget so obviously we have not all got stacks of doe to spend.
when i started out many found solid products gave the best results, evolution of isolation has brought many new ideas, i have recently found using Seismic Podiums under my speakers gave the biggest upgrade in sound quality i have experienced,
I then decided this product could benefit my electronics as well by acoustically isolating my speakers ie no more floor vibrations, my rack is a very heavy Copulare with the heavier shelves with the 3 legs filled with sand, i have placed seismic bars type S under the 3 legs of the rack, so now my rack is acoustically isolated like my speakers,
I am now experimenting with second hand Finite elemente cerapucs and the older volcano stillpoints, i have not had time to evaluate but with just the Seismic Isolation Products my system sounds incredible, i am always looking to further the performance of my system but budget is my limiting factor,
i believe everything everywhere all the time should be isolated and yes using the right products you will hear sound improvements, i believe i am on the right track now but there is just so many ways to skin the cat its taking a lot of audiophiles time and money to find the right ones that work for you,
after all its all about the music,
it would be so easy if there was one simple product that done it all, i am finding combinations work ie springs , solid objects and bearings, next up will be different materials used regarding solid and bearings the seismic isolation products are great on there own but all audiophiles are looking for the next level that Is what keeps and makes our hobby so magical, there is just to many products and different ideas, if i had to pick one i would go Townshend Audio Seismic Isolation Podiums they are a ground breaking product which will benefit your hole system and listening environment.
