Jafant (and everyone else),

I hope I’m not breaking any rules here, but I am having some CS2.4 outriggers made here in Dallas at a local shop that are identical to the originals (without spikes or caps).  I’m not offering anything for sale, but if there is any interest in obtaining a set of these I can put you in touch with the shop.  Full disclosure, I am in now way connected to the shop or making any money from this - just a conduit to get a set of these are they are almost impossible to find.  If there is any interest send me an email: [email protected]

@wisinskt , Perhaps, I’m mistaken but I seem to recall that respected forum contributor @duramax747 with his somewhat unique professional skills was working on a similar project.

 Keep in mind that depending on one’s room and in particular that rooms flooring, and depending how these devices are coupled or as the case may be decoupled, can make things sound just as easily worse or better. YMMV!

I have mixed feelings... Feel free to skip to 11:25 or so.

@unsound , thanks for the info re: @duramax747!  Good to be amongst tinkerers (as I'm new to this thread).  I started by trying to find the outriggers on various forums, websites, hifishark, etc... and then went down the rabbit trail of getting these milled.  I have a set for my 1.6's out at my ranch but not the 2.4's.  Instead of spikes I'm using the IsoA Gaia's and they worked so well with the 1.6 setup that I went down the 2.4 path as the rooms in both places are pretty similar (partialy sits on wood and rug).  I have been reading through the posts and think after a week I'm on page 30 or so.  Great discussions going on here and appreciate everything.  I also appreciate the fact that everyone seems pretty collegial unlike a lot of other threads out there.  Glad I found this place!

devinplombier - no worries. I have consulted a variety of designers for feedback and input for our upgrade design approach and particulars. In this case we're re-balancing the SCS4 (as an option) for stand-mounting rather than bookshelf environment. Danny also provided feedback re components and circuits from his perspective.

By the way, I highly recommend Danny's Electra Tube Connectors as input terminals. They fit our paradigm of propagation field integrity in a simple, well executed, affordable package. The best I've found at any price.
