CD vs. SACD vs. DVD-Audio vs Vinyl vs...

BMP, I've borrowed Harmonic Technology cables, and have them right now. They need to go back soon. Which ones are you curious about? You don't seem to be interested in my other suggestions, so I don't know why you'd think I knew about these cables. I'm not experienced with Vibra Pods, but I'm sure they'd help at least a little. I use AQ Little Feet, and they work great. And if you didn't know the chair was leather, that's different.

For the record, I humble myself before Albert Porter, specifically regarding power cords for my power amp. He was right, and I was wrong FOR SURE!

Hi Bmp; Vibrapods are a tremendous product, especially when placed under digital components and pre-amps. I liked them so much I put them under EVERYTHING except my big DNA-2DX amp which already has good vibration control. Clarity and dynamics improved across the whole music spectrum, including tighter bass. I'm even considering putting them under my rather stiff speaker cables.

Carl, You should follow your "14 years of expereinece with using Armor All on plastics and rubber, and it always elimated the aging process (cleans and makes it shine too)altogether, Zero" and clean your vinyl collection with Armor All. Afterall it is only logical since vinyl is in the plastics family and Armor All is so good, as you say, for ruber and plastics. PS I have always enjoyed washing my cars although its far ranks below many other pleasures. Congrats on buying the Argenta @ Music Directs close out price. Lets read you thoughts about it after you play it. Is that before or after the Armor All application? Gerrym5

I have tried Vibrapods, but did not like them. Putting them under speakers yields good and bad effects, but overall they reduced musical enjoyment for me. I feel they would work best under speakers with noisy cabinets, since they reduce cabinet resonance at the expense of doppler effect distortions. Under CD players, preamps, power amps etc they had a similar effect to many of the other compliant footers around. At the price they are good, but in a top flight system I strongly recommend the various bladder products like seismic sinks. Their performance eclipses products like Vibrapods. If you do not want to pay so much then experiment with 12" or 14" inner tubes (with as little air in them as possible). I use seismic sinks under my electronics except for my monoblocks where the sheer weight and the difficulty of centering that weight meant a very expensive sink was required. As a result I used 12" inner tubes between two shelves. This performed hugely better than Vibrapods.
