A nice PC upgrade

I just added a maple shades platform (4 inches) under my PC (with the iso blocks and brass footers). I really did it because I had some money burning the usual hole and figured worse case, it gets the puter off the floor and less dust to blow out every other month Well, when I sat in front of the speakers, no kidding... I can hear deeper into the music. Deeper soundstage and wider in the back and even a bit more air around the instruments and vocals. Really glad I can cross this one off as I have been eyeing it for a while know. Your milage may vary but strongly suggest not overlooking isolating the noisey beast.

Thanks guys. I have seen the marantz and bryston. I think if I make a change, will custom build with linear power supplies or just buy a baetis. Thanks.

I always thought people were using external HD's to get them away from the other components in the computer. I guess the real reason lot of people are using them because they have computers like laptops and Mac Mini's where you have no choice. Its good for me because I have a full size case, so in they go.
