![]() It's possible that a tube moving-coil stage could be improved even more, but I am not in a position to make that observation. HERBIE'S TUBE DAMPERS- I highly advise using them for all tube preamplifiers and power amplifiers, though the largest improvement, meaning the most easily noticeable and musically important, will be damping the tubes in the RIAA phono stage of the preamplifier. The distributor claims that this updated model "improves on the (still available) original as the original improved on nothing." We may even get a "loaner" in the future. Note- There is a new Seismic Sink model (called the 3D) that is using advanced technology similar to the Vibraplanes, for a fraction of the price. Acoustical isolation should be a priority for everyone, no matter what, or where, your system is. VARIOUS ISOLATION BASES- Townshend Seismic Sinks or Bright Star bases. If there are any differences between these respective models, other than cosmetic, I'm not aware of them.īLACK DIAMOND RACING CONES- The best cones available for the money. Unfortunately, their prices appear to be considerably higher than the (now unavailable to audiophiles) direct prices from Kinetic Systems, the actual designer and manufacturer. The 2214 is also automatic, and adds greater horizontal isolation.įURTHER: The 22 models are also called "Vibraplanes" by the U.S. The 2212 does this automatically, but you have to provide the electronic pump. The 2210 is passive, requiring a manual pump to be used periodically to level it and retain the isolation. They were made to isolate electron microscopes. ![]() KINETIC SYSTEMS 2200 SERIES ISOLATION BASES- These are very expensive, but they are probably the finest isolation bases available at this time. ![]()
