MY Place sbayne@aniwolfe - I've been reading over on the Double Impact boards that IsoAcoustics are becoming popular with that crowd. I found a pretty good deal on a set of IsoAcoustics Iso-Pucks so I'm going to ... posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |

MY Place sbayneThanks @aniwolfe! I use Herbie's Iso-Cups under my Impact Monitors and have added some weight on the top of the monitors to stabilize/couple them to the Iso-Cups. It did make a very nice ... posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneWell the maple blocks and the bigger Tranquility Bases are now under the amps. To my surprise, everything has "relaxed" even more and the soundstage is spooky good. I can't say the soundstage expan... posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI'm waiting for stain to dry on some maple blocks for my amps. I'm also going to bigger Tranquility Bases for the amps. Previously, I had the Tranquility Bases on the floor. I'm thinking the maple ... posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneThanks Bon. I think you'll like the Rythmik. Since the Impact Monitor is vented you will have to mess with the phase/delay to integrate it the best. I suppose placement in the room also makes a dif... posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI upgraded the power cords on the Rythmik subs and it made the soundstage even more realistic with very natural decays. It’s amazing what even “small”changes can make to the overall sound of your ... posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayne@grannyring - Thanks! It's worked out well. It seemed like a logical next step with these monitors. Now if I could just convince you to upgrade the monitor cross... posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI've now spent hours listening to the various settings for phase/delay. As Rythmik indicated, if being used with vented speakers the subs may need some significant phase/delay. I ended-up at about ... posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneThanks mapman. Its still a work in process, but the Rythmik F8s cabinet size and design go well with the Impact Monitors so that is a good first step in getting them to integrate. posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbaynebdp24 - I updated my system description. These are the Rythmik F8 subs. They integrated really well. I'm still messing with the phase/delay. Rythmik explains on their website that with a vented ... posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |

MY Place sbayneI'm now using Tekton Design Impact Monitors. The tweeter array in those speakers is excellent. The bass is not the same as the VR-7 HSE but with the REL sub it is very good.The Tekton's are conside... posted about 8 years ago | View comment | |

MY Place sbayneBreezer - Also, if you are building a Shindo system I would start with a preamp and go from there. The Monbrison is excellent. As you probably know, Ken Shindo has passed away but his wife and son... posted about 8 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneBreezer - The reason I got rid of my Shindo gear is I had too much money tied-up in my system. I had 3 boys heading towards college and I just couldn't justify it. If I had another zero behind m... posted about 8 years ago | View comment | |

MY Place sbayneHi Dan (islandmandan) - I've used solid silver cabling over the years and I certainly understand why you like them. Switching between a SET 300B and Class D amp? Sounds crazy but I understand that ... posted about 8 years ago | View comment | |
The SummitDan - very nice system. Really like the plinth! posted about 8 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneJust added a picture of the FEQ on footers and a stand. This increased height helped its performance much like it helped the Atmosphere's performance I referred to in an earlier post. posted about 8 years ago | View comment |
