Stillpoints and reference-level speakers

Tbg,
What do you mean you have sought them to no avail? Are you saying that Robert won't sell them to you?

Roxy54, I want to try them and possibly to review them. I have had people I respect say they are better than the StillPoints, but I will be surprised if they do.

Wrm57, those are interesting results. I use some digital EQ in my system, so I might be able to compensate for the mid-bass issue that you mentioned. Creating more air and separation are things that I'm looking for.

Psag,

Definitely worth a try, especially if you can pick up the Stillpoints with a trial period, just in case. Good luck.

For me I found Stillpoints SS worked well on heavy components (75 lb integrated in my case) and not so well on lighter components. I tried 3 and 4 SS's under my DAC and my transport; and I could barely tell a difference over some Stillpoints brass cones.... the SS's actually made the sound a tad dry and less involving. Wave Kinetics A10-U8's worked way better than either these; which is what I settled on. I had all three at the same time, so I was able to compare them directly. Also tried the SS under my speakers and they didn't work so well there either, but I blame my thick carpeting.
