I do not think that cast iron is use in there for any damping characteristics or anything to do with sound or common sense.  it is just the style niche that he has: art-deco like, rural Pennsylvania style.  It is not the style that I personally find attractive, but some people bite into it. You see, the PR is this character specialty. All that TV appearance in network news, pretentious demos in Manhattan loft and the rest of the things is how he is buttering up own business. He does not sell anything to audio seasoned people, he has no sound to sell and no option to appeal, even if he sells anything. His clientele is market brokers who would like to put a “kinky audio” as a decoration in their real-estate. A half of them do not even turn the systems up, ever. Ask me how I know about it. It is like Bang & Olufsen years back…. You might see those magazines that are made for people who have a lot of money and who called to buy rare cars, brilliant, loaded watches and the golf equipment reportedly blessed by 3 Pops. That is exactly the space where this creatine operates. I do not feel that anus is wrong with him in the way how he makes his living but what he does has no relation to audio. He deals with commodities that just looks like loudspeakers and turntables.
