What's under your amp?


Interested in hearing the importance (or not) of isolation platforms for amps. Check my system, you'll see I've got my Cary's sitting on top of my cabinet, which is a custom piece made of solid cherry. Very solid, but I'm wondering if maybe the cabinet is introducing vibrations up into the amps, and maybe I could use some help from a platform?

I second the SRA recommendation. Yes, they can be costly, but IMO there is no better isolation device on the planet. I have them under every component in my system, and the difference they've made in the sound quality is nothing short of astounding. If you can afford them, and don't want to settle for anything less than the very best, check out SRA. They're worth every penny.
Sorry about that duplicative site reference. I don't know how I missed that.

Here is the Soundstage review site I mentioned:

Hey thanks... so what color can the standard VRA come in? I hate that grey phony rock color...
Dennis, my advice would be to call Kevin at SRA. I think (but you need to confirm this) part of the cost savings is that the finish on the VR Series is much less time consuming that the outrageous gloss finishes of the OHIO Class bases. I do think you may be able to get it in another color though, but again, check with Kevin. The finish does not affect the sonics though.
Dennis:

I've only seen the VR series in the grey finish, but it's worth a call or email to SRA to see if custom colors are a possibility.
