Townshend Pods - How many do I actually need per component for max effectiveness?

Hello,

 

Experiences from actual users would be greatly appreciated. I have a phono preamp (28lbs), amp (100lbs), linestage (20lbs), and potentially a DAC (6 lbs) that I am looking to get pods for. 

 

Should I get 4 per component or would 3, or even 2 work just as well/better? If anyone can share their experiences with the pods and experimenting with the number they used and what it did to the sound, I’d be thankful.

3 is generally considered the most stable and best sounding.

The 6 pound DAC might be too light as some compression is needed. You might try them under a heavier support. Have you tried Nobsound springs? They're a lot cheaper and work well.

Do you have any experience with this or is 3 something you’ve read about? 
 

Thanks for the response.
