Townshend Springs under Speakers
@ prof I’d love to watch you at work. It sounds quite interesting. I have two friends who are cinematographers in the business, and two friends who are documentary filmmakers. Regards - https://www.theaudioatticvinylsundays.com |

Which seems at odds with the foo and magic in the way this thread has evolved. |

Finished up a few days ago installing the Townshend pods. I wanted to do it in stages to see where the biggest bang for the buck was. I started with 4 under the Rogue RP 7 linestage. While certainly not the impact of the Podiums a really nice bump with more of the same. No loss or softness and just more layering, separation and space. Next under the Cary 700 streamer/dac. Really couldn’t notice much of a difference between the pods and the Combak Harmonix spikes and footers I was using. After a few more days I installed under the Klaus’s latest version of his Kismet extremes Mono blocks where I figured I would get the biggest bump and did not disappoint I put one on each side of the 18lb transformers and 2 up front The -odd are adjustable to level the gear. Another wow moment. Just much more of the same Recorded music sounds damn near live and the live music sounds fantastic total investment for the whole loom including the Podiums was a little over 3,200. My system is at about 40k so that’s at 8%. Really a drop in the bucket in the big picture. Plus I have the Stillpoints and Combak Footers to re-sell. So if I had to rate the level of improvement of my system giving the value of the Podiums at 100% Pods under the amps 40% under the preamp 20% under the Dac/streamer 1-3% I really can’t see any tweak that can rival the pods/podiums for the money. Sure there is better available but for the relative affordability I sure am happy Check out a couple of playlists https://tidal.com/playlist/248cacb2-c9ab-47cf-94fb-03584fd120b2 I try to listen to well recorded music but as my system evolves it all sounds pretty good http://open.qobuz.com/playlist/3634907 Enjoy |
