TA-102 fo.Q Product from Japan "TRY These"


TA-102 fo.Q from Japan. 
I just added these to the bottom of my Focal Speaker stands. They are supposed to reduce vibrations and I must say they have tightened up the soundstage and bass. For a package of 2 for speakers they cost about $35 and it only took about a week to receive. 
I bought additional ones that I will try on the inside of some of my component covers. These are the real deal, even  better than Herbies!

Well someone obviously thinks he can be sneaky and repost the same drivel ( with a couple of minor snips)that a mod just deleted and it will now be fine.

Says all I need to know .......

And no it was not I that reported your prior post, I actually do have a life amazing as that may seem... Lol.
batmobile you stated go liberal on speaker baskets. I used mortite caulking puddly rope long ago on speaker baskets and there was a definite improvement. On a 6 1/2 inch driver how big of a piece do you consider liberal on each rib of basket. Now I'm on my way to 50 packs.

Hi Paul -
I would consider covering any or all parts of the metal ribbing of speaker baskets, to suit your taste. I would personally cover all of the metal basket. I don’t think you could over-do it with fo.Q, unless you happen to like metallic ringing and distortion as part of the sonic blend (some do!). The basket isn’t really technically part of the transducer therefore it shouldn’t be vibrating at all. Maybe start with one 20mm strip on each rib to see if you like it. If you like it, adding more will give you more of what you like.
Because fo.Q deals with low amplitude vibrations very efficiently, it is not subject to the same sonic pitfall as other damping materials (or at least to a much lesser extent). Namely, absorbing certain frequencies but leaving others behind to dominate and muddy the sound.

I think a lot of problems with Japan Post happen when the items hit USPS. For small items FedEx works great.
Well I just finished applying the fo.Q inside my Audioquest Niagara 7000.
I placed a full sheet on the inside cover. The rest was cut up pieces and placed on every cap, electrical device, on the outlets, IEC etc. avoiding any electrical contacts. The only place I did not place it was on transformers. I was concerned that they may get hot and melt the product.

Anyway, the deed is done, now to test the results.
