Hi Andy,Not being an engineer I have little knowledge of how best to manage air or ground based vibrations or how much they might or might not affect specific components but 'airbags' sure sound logical. Personally, I sit my components on simple corK and rubber combo blocks - nothing as extensive as DSK has tried.Regardless, my ears still work and any excuse to come and listen to your kit again and pass an opinion has got to be a good one. Pretty busy next week or so but soon.
Hi All,Andy, you prompted me to get out a slab of foam rubber which I used for vibration isolation under the turntable. I placed the foam under the Surya which is sitting on the floor within a meter from the VSonics. The position for the Surya is not ideal and a permanent position for it has not been established as we often take it to our holiday house. The sound with the isolation foam seems to be fuller/more rounded and detailed. I would like to hear your system again Andy. When I heard it a month or so ago I thought that it could not get much better.Cheers,Laurie.
...PS: Foam rubber is, yes, a first step in terms of isolation ... but a heavy slab supported by an air cushion is better, IMO. When you come round, I'll show you how I keep the squash balls fixed in place...
Andy,Thanks for setting up a group meet, 28th is out for me, Ben Williams is marrying that day in Sassafras, but 29th would suit?Hugh
hi, guysCan you post a summary of the listening experience?Or is it "just" having some nice social fun?
Hi AndySunday nights are not good for me. I'm grounded pretty much on week ends with family activities.T
Andy,1:30 suits me fine. Theo, I'll pick you up!Hugh
