Sistrum Platforms


Has any one tried these in thier system and how is the rack at reducing vibrations? Thanks.

Yes, I've got to say that Dml1's experience w/Sistrum and StarSound is completely the opposite of mine. Robert was 100% available and responsive to all my inquiries and questions and offered full return policy. Meanwhile, my Sistrum rack and speaker stands get better and better. They were a great improvement to an already very good system, and I personally love the looks of this distinctive, minimalist stand. You can adjust the audiopoints on each shelf to fit each component, large or small, perfectly. I even have my Linn turntable resting on the audiopoints on the top shelf and think the sound is much improved from when I had it on a Brightstar Big Rock before.
Yes I second Sc53's comments. The StarSound company was very responsive to my questions and presented a very professional and educated approach in dealing with customers about their products.

Esb - the purveyors of Sistrum gear have sullied their reputation here through shameless and deceitful self-promotion on this forum. Hence I have reservations and perhaps a bias.

Having tried their product I can say that I thought the sound was decidedly better than using simple brass cones, but generally in the same direction. That is to say, a muddy sounding system will open up using Sistrum, but at the expense of adding resonant peaks that will color all that passes through your system.

Under speakers seems the best application to me, but under electronics there seemed to me to be far better ways to go.
redkiwi is quite correct about the shameless self-dealing done in the past by sistrum on these forums. they've used a number of shills/sockpuppets to puff their gear and then deny it. i find it fascinating, indeed, that sistrum's latest supposed "spokesperson," lonelynote, has posted on but ONE thread: this one. just remember that a lifetime guaranty is based, not on your lifetime, but on his who offers it. i, too, have heard the rumors of sistrum's imminent demise. not hard to believe. lonelynote, BTW, skirts this issue neatly but seemingly disingenuously. caveat emptor. -cfb
Good-day to redkiwi and cornfedboy,

I urge you to pick up the telephone and call me (toll free at 1-877-668-4332). A person to person discussion could change your tune about our company, especially since I will have no knowledge as to who you are. Judge us based on the merits of your direct contact with our company or your personal experience with our designs.

Truthfully, anyone can attempt to damage the reputation and function of any product. We are never upset with any opinions concerning our products from people who have actually listened to and own the product.

The buying public is intelligent enough to analyze and critique the published reviews from Industry’s Senior Editors and form their own opinions with regard to the science and function of our products.

I truly find the attacks on our finance somewhat amusing though. More or less a cheap shot that bears no merit of truth whatsoever.

Audio Points™ and Sonoran A/V Wire Designs have been a part of our company for the past dozen years or so. Sistrum Platforms are the most recent project released into our product line up. Many more designs, including Harmonic Precision electronics and loudspeaker systems, are scheduled to follow.

We welcome the opportunity to speak with you and as always – Good Listening.

My name is Robert.
