Isolation Devices: Any Good Ones?

Stanwal,
I had the SR MIGS and sold them off. The sand boxes blew them out of the ball park. Sand boxes may not look pretty but since the music is the most important thing you lose sight of them pretty fast.

Schoff,
I use large Tupperware-style containers filled with dry sand under all my components as well as speakers. This is the best I have found and I have used many isolation devices, some very expensive and well-known ones. The sand boxes beat them all by a country mile. In my system.

I use fish bowls filled with liquid mercury. It takes a while to break in but when it does you loose all sense of connection with anything at all related to the transmission of musical harmony. Tom

Bungee cords rule. Relatively low WAF.

i'm a big fan of the Wave Kinetics A10-U8's under components. i use 8 sets of 4 in my system. some light-weight gear i use 3 underneath, my 60 pound amplifier i use 6 underneath. lowers the noise floor, increases detail, transient snap, and image focus. the degree of improvement does vary from one product to another. and you want a grounded rack for the A10-U8's to work their best. i use the Adona racks.

i also use the Wave Kinetics 2NS footers underneath my speaker spikes. similar effect to what i listed as benefits of the A10-U8's but also improves bass articulation (lowers distortion) and soundstage depth increases.
