Post Subject: Roller Bearings color the sound tooPosted by Jorge on: 12/1/2013

I had been using Aurios roller bearings under my Cd transport for a long time, Every time I changed a transport I would immediately put them under, and they always helped: Untill I got the Forsell transport. When I first brought it into my listening room it was sooo heavy I just put it on a side rack and compared to the transport I had at the time head to head, needless to say the Forsell aboslutely killed the other transport (CEC TL1) so I finally took the TL1 out and put in the Forsell with the Aurios on the bottom: It sounded the same as the TL1 !!!
Took them off and the great sound was back!
I tried again the CEC TL1 without the Aurios and it didnt change that much.
Now I have the Aurios on the DAC... It gives it a bit more clarity.... maybe?

I use sand isolation for my rack now.
