Ayon CD2S vs ModWright XA-5400ES Ultimate Truth

I may just have to look into those platforms, currently using maple hardwoods for my player and power supply...

It would be interesting if anyone has compared the symposium roller blocks to the stillpoints.

Hey Goose, The still points ultra 5s do work as advertised or return them for a full refund, I could start with15 please,..
The demonstration of the Symposium Segue ISO platform with roller blocks under that Sony with the tubes sticking out of the top was impressive.
With that disk inside spinning at those rpms I can easily understand why CD players would benefit so much,to a lesser extent with preamps and power supply's however it works very well even so.

After experiencing this with the CD players I wouldn't even consider evaluating a player without a Symposium platform and roller blocks.
Compared to Stillpoints products the best bang for the buck is Symposium by a good amount.
And finally I understand Symposiums history is where everyone else in this business that use precision ball bearings got their ideas for resonate control, Kudos to Symposium.

In_shore thanks for the note. Another option would be Herbie's Iso-Cups. I haven't used that particular product but it looks interesting. I agree that the Symposium products offer a good value.

In_shore,

With the use of maple hardwoods under my components, do you think I'll need both platforms and roller-blocks? The HD roller-blocks may fit my criteria a little better based on their size.

Thanks,
