Halcyonics under my tt. Wow

No. I end an email to Herzan asking about the retail for TS-140, but never got any reply.

BTW - does Micro 40 has auto leveling feature ? The Silencer has to be readjusted every time you put a different component on it (for different weight).

Yes, the Micros series is self-leveling as was the Model One.

I emailed Herzan also. Maybe I will need to send an email from the University.

I did get an answer to some of my questions from Herzan. Apparently, the Stable Table people and those at Halcyonic once worked together. The focus of Herzan has become improving sensors and communications to correction focusing on corrections in the 10-100Hz region.

TS-300LT costs $10,200 but is comparable to the Micro 80, so it is a very large unit. I would love to be able to compare the two in several applications.

Could you ask about the TS140 as well ?

I tried The Silencer under my ARC CD-7 CDP, ARC Ref-3 pre and ARC Ref 110 amp. When I put my pre and power amp on the Silencer, the changes were minimal. A bit like changing the tube dampers. There were there, and were positive, but they not warranted extra $11.500 IMO.

CDP was a different story. Here the changes were very substantial, in terms or removing grain, improving stage depth, resolution, HF-air and decays. It is like the noise leven in the system had dropped -20dB. Here it actually represents a reasonable value. Not good, but reasonable. I think that If I had a spare $11500 burning my pocket (which I do not have right now - the unit was on dealer loan) I would keep it. Oh well - maybe one day !

Thank you Tbg for bringing my attention to this innovative product.

PS. I borrowed The Silencer to a friend who owns VPI Aries 3 turn table. I will report back on his findings as well.
