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.

In forty years I have had only one component failure and that was an ARC SP10. The unit flamed out, the fuse didn't blow and the breaker didn't trip. I was there in the room when this happened. I tripped the breaker myself in the closet where the gear was located..and put the fire out in the unit. So much for protection devices. To me its all about the sound. Tom

I have never blown an IsoClean fuse, nor have I ever heard a benefit from using a fresh one relative to one used for over a year and a half.

I understand this is an old thread, but I am still very curious as to how active vibration isolation systems have benefitted the audible clarity of your equipment. I do work for Herzan and wish I was with the company during your original inquiry to provide assistance to your vibration noise issues. This by no means is a solicitation, moreover, I am simply curious with your experience active vibration isolation systems and their effect on your equipment.

Thank you,

Reid
