Yea, I was bummed they didn't work too. All the great reviews I was sure they were going to work. Maybe the minis aren't the way to go but my Preamp only weighs 15 pounds. I did pull some monitors out of the closet before I boxed them up and they did make a difference vs blue tak. I did put them under CD player and got same results. For some reason my gear likes hard footers. Brass, Nordost quasars, aluminum. One of the strangest things was when I put audioquest sorbathane under CD player highs became overly bright you would think it would be dull. So I guess every system and component acts different depending what goes under it.
Opinions Golden Sounds DH Cones, I just bought some,they came in today
I bought some Jumbos to go under Preamp. Will try them this weekend, they just came in today. My tube CD player has easy access so I replaced Mapleshade brass with jumbos. I placed them in biggest triangle possible and found them a little exaggerated in the highs. I moved the back two feet 2 or so inches closer together and it smoothed out very nicely. That's as far as I've gotten. Very nice improvement over brass which I swapped back in just to confirm my findings. If you have used the DH cones which component faired the best with the cones? I have amp, Preamp, phono preamp, turntable power supply,. I've heard 2 up 1 down, 2 down 1 up. Any advise were to place under component. I am going to buy Gaia Oreos next anyone compared the two, thank you.

Where does one find the DH cones these days? The Golden Sound site isn’t much help and Musician's Friends site says they are no longer available, at least there. I have a 52 lb PrimaLuna tube preamp on the way, and a 25 lb Lampi TRP dac that currently has Stillpoint ultra minis under its three basic Stacore feet, resting on the bottom shelf of a Salamander Designs cabinet. The sound of the dac is much more open with the Stillpoints under the Stacore feet, vs. directly under the dac’s body. Thanks, |
I just went to goldensound.com and found the page for DH Cones and was able to place an order for Super DH Cones in the shopping cart, all within about 20 seconds. https://www.goldensound.com |
