Mattresses, not stereos is where the money is

Beds can be like audio in that there’s that markup to deal with but what goes for an audio deal can be done with beds.

Like my Kinki Studio EX-M1 integrated, my Nectar foam mattress is made in China. I researched the hell out of both of them and like the savings one gets with the Kinki, the Nectar set me back a mere $700 for a queen mattress.

Online reviews say it’s the closest thing to a Tempurpedic and I can attest to that since my sister got one a month before I got my Nectar. The best thing is, the Nectar comes with a lifetime warranty. Should I ever grow to hate it, they’ll come pick it up with a full refund, no questions asked.

I’ve never slept better and all it took was some good old fashioned gumshoe work, like I do with my audio purchases. And like with audio, some of the reviewers knocked the Nectar since it was made in China, so there’s that other aspect one can attribute to both: the xenophobia.

All the best,
Nonoise

Mattress stores are being put to bed as fast as they rise where I live.

I always sleep standing up and often wear a tuxedo while doing so.

I’m pretty sure mattresses would make excellent vibration isolation platforms, big enough for the whole system! If you have a LITTLE SYSTEM use a child’s mattress. 🤗 Air mattress or spring mattress. Take your pick! A memory foam topper for damping, perhaps? 

Unfortunately, a friend on a very limited income has a 400lb. twenty-something mentally-disabled son who wandered into one of these mattress stores and purchased an $8000 mattress on a five-year installment plan.
