No Duke, THANK YOU...You not only build products with high value/price ratio, and support then well, but you also changed the way I listen to music.

Anthony, do you use footers with your Jazz Modules? I liked them so much at RMAF, I almost thought of selling my.....well, I couldn't do it, but I did like what I was hearing in the Audio Kinesis room, those amps weren't bad either:)

Great read,thanks,Bob

Paul, in my old condo when the speakers were on the carpet I used Adona platform shelves under them. The shelves are a layer of granite combined with a layer of MDF bonded by some type of epoxy. Granite side was face down to the carpet and speakers resting on the MDF. My reason for using these was to give the speakers more stability and I feel the results were very good. In my new condo the speakers are on a very smooth and level tile floor. I found no need to improve stability, so they rest on the rails that Duke attaches to the bottom of the speakers. No issues and they sound great.

In the article Duke discusses the preferred off-axis listening set-up with 45 degree toe-in. In my old condo this was not possible and toe-in was never more than 20 degrees. I'm now using the 45 degree toe-in in my new condo and I have to say I'm liking it very much. I'm getting a whole new perspective on the sound stage and there is definitely a larger sweet spot. I guess the designer knew what he was doing;)
