Audio stuff that is impossible to install right (or stay installed right)


(your own experience only, no trashing others please)

What are your most frustrating experience to install something?


In any other...here's mine's:

1) Salamander Designs Archetype 5.0 Audio Stand

The infinitely adjustable stand....

2) Aurios Isolation Bearings

Need a perfectly level house with a perfectly level floor and rack that do not move nor vibrate, and that's before you try to put your equipment on top of them.

3) Earlier Antique Sound Labs 845 tube monos 

Watching the bias swing insanely while the mono blocks were idle without signal - I should have videotape that just for fun.
