Agree, it is very good. For the vibration isolation, I would
worry only about the driver tubes. If you have some money to waste then you might
look for ALNIC made tube sockets vibration dumpers. They are VERY effective and
if you buy them in bulk then they are not too cost prohibitive. Be advised that
the driver tubes are very microphonic when they are cold. As you just turn the
amp it will be latterly ringing for a first few mins. It should be dead quite
after 5-10 mins. The good question would be if I hear the sonic difference with
and without the sockets vibration dumpers. It might be but I think it is more
done for intellectual satisfaction. You might
rubber recouping via the stand-off for the top tube-caring platform. To make is
absolutely crazy you might find (I have seen them) pneumatic inserts in the standoffs
and then to use very light wires if loos wires to connect the tube sockets.
This will be a great engendering treat but I am not convinced that it will give
you tangible sonic advantages.Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site
