looking for best isolation platform for CD player

How does it work:

The principles outlined in the white paper are strictly adhered to. I hope it's acceptable for me to say that the workings are proprietary.

How much does it cost:

I'm concerned that answering that would turn a discussion into a sales pitch. But I will answer the question as posed. So if an answer to the question would offend a reader stop now..........

What I do isn't for everybody. If you like to swap out equipment, I'm not your guy. I do custom applications.

Having said that, if it's a piece of equipment that really pleases you and we both agree that what I do is what you want, $850. That's the price for my best work, custom-made for your equipment. Lesser performance costs less. I do all my work with Oak, Walnut and Maple frames. You pick the color stain. The walnut can be "ebonized" into high-gloss black. No metals.

I'm not a mass-producer. I work one-on-one with audiophiles and that takes time and good communication.

Let's agree not to talk about prices further out of respect for the thread.

Thanks

Joe

Let's see... the guy who started the thread owns the Sistrum, the guy who sells them, tells everyone how dumb they are, then the guy who makes them gives a six page explanation of the workings, then the price, and then says, out of respect for the thread, "I won't sell."
This is, of course a smaller audience than the Super Bowl, but a more select, and captive one, and I am certain the pricefor this advertising is sure better.
I mentioned in an earlier thread that I would give, repeat give, which I thought the intent of these threads were, that is to exchange information, to anyone who wanted to try and build one, the recipe for how to build a mass based platform. Let's at least not insult everyone with such unabashed selling. Does anyone here doubt that this was not completely set up??
I really thought that the Audiogon Staff was supposed to edit out any obvious selling attempts on these sites. I am disappointed. Even if it works better than anything else, this duplicity makes me suspicious. Now Tom...tell us you don't sell these. Tell us that publicly.

Joe Lavrenick is not part of Sistrum . To my knowledge he has no dealer base and only posted here because some folks including myself asked him to do so.

Larry the guy who started the thread is Who?..the guy with a 6 page white paper is Joe and he has a totally different product.. not Sistrum..And Larry you have a great ear but I would not have you to my house and you know the multitude of reasons why! Shall we speak of people across the Ohio river here? If you were invited to my home and you were to listen to Sistrum products then you too would call Robert and buy one... What is your association with Albert the speaker guy? Some times controversial and negative press stirs up sales..A sales master like yourself certainly knows that angle..The one and only reality of my being on this thread is to say again.. there is know such thing as isolation and dampening is a storage device. And I think the current marketed devices that propose such are a waste of time and money. Maybe only one man's opinion, but it is, all of me.. Tom

I was wrong, wrong, wrong. Sorry. I admit it!!
