I saw Peter's (owner of symposium) demo at the NY audio show back in 2003 and was very impressed. (he hit a crowbar against a rod of metal and it rang like a telephone. He hit the same rod with the same crowbar, but the rod was resting on a Fat Pad and the ring became a 'thud'. I was sold. I had the svelt shelves under my Sanders Stats (100 lb, 6 foot electrostatic speakers). The immediately tidied thing up in the sound and made my wife very happy with the high hats down stairs no longer vibrating (unless I really blasted). Had that for 4 years, so figured, what the heck, and I upgraded to the Ultras. Tightened up the sound even more (can't imagine better) and I can blast as loud as I want and the high hats don't even wiggle. I would never not have symposiums under my speakers. They are a deal breaker for me. (and Peter is awesome).
Symposium Ulta Shelf under floor standing speakers - Any Thoughts ?
Symposium is no doubt a great company with a long with standing pedigree in the Audiophile community. I was looking at their products and they had mentioned that they do have a platform that will work wonders under floor standing speakers. So, I though I would toss the question out to the group and see what everyone thought. The Symposium shelves do wonders under equipment, so what do they do to speakers ? Thank you in advance .......
EBM - do not reply unless you truly have something to offer and or have them under your own speakers.
