Halcyonics under my tt. Wow

I just put my third, too expensive but wonderful, Halcyonic active isolation base under my Shindo Labs tt and am just overwhelmed by what I am hearing. I doubt if I will sleep tonight having 50 LPs that I "must" hear.

The ambient detail and realism is just shocking.

It is one of the great tragedies of audio that this device cannot be made somewhere for under $2000; I think they would sell hundreds. I know I would have one for every componnent. Mine was used.

Lewm, I cannot tell you. All I can suggest is to call Laufer Teknic.

Are Halcyonics located in Germany or elsewhere outside the US? (I don't think so.) If not, why did they choose a German distributor for the whole world? That very fact will add a lot of cost for US customers, I would think. Surely most of their real business is done with US-based science and industry, I would guess. I guess I'm guessing wrong.

There is a California company that is distributor for the scientific community. Laufer Teknic does the audio aspects worldwide.

I suspect that the weak dollar is chiefly responsible for this product not taking off in the US. I have no idea how it is doing in other countries.
