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.

Tbg: I do not own a TT at this time, and while I have thought about buying a TT quite seriously.., at this point with my digital at its current state I am not interested.

I have listened to the StillPoints component stands (the one that looks like an adjustable X in the large form factor) with the StillPoint feet in place. I have also used the StillPoint feet without the stand.

I find that they can work well with some items, but I am not enamored of them. I will say that in my situation they absolutely can not touch the Silencer in any form factor or way... they simply do not do what that thing is capable of under digital gear. Now under amps, I think in my case they do less harm than the Silencer in active mode, but I still would not use them under my amps (Graaf GM 200 and Modena) as they impart a sound I'm not partial too.

I do have one SS amp which sounds stunning when used with the StillPoints amps stands (the one that looks like a X) when used with the SP feet... this is on a carpeted floor. Again...YMMV there is no Panacea for vibration control in my opinion.
Audiofun, no Panacea, but these are so superior, that I have lost interest in others.
Tbg I agree 100% about the Stillpoints ultra five. I put four under my turntable and four under my phono stage. Amazing!
Himiguel, I wish I could say that there is no benefit of them under your speakers and amps, but I cannot deny that they are amazing. I know a guy with more than 60 of them! The problem under components such as a phono stage is that the Fives are so big, you have difficulty getting them under them.

If you have a StillPoints Rack, there is a replacement coming for their acrylic shelves that allows using the SP Ultra SSs that is every bit as good as the Fives and way better than the acrylic shelves which hide the real benefit of the SP Rack.
Tbg, saving for the ultra fives on the amps, speakers, Troy, Orion, Spartan. I can only imagine the effect as a whole on the entire system.
