I got the Pacific to replace my GG2 and restart the run in process again, it has been a week already after i put the cs2m 1.5 under both of my Pacific and Extreme, i have slightly changed the position and put them close to the front and back panel and nearby the original footers of both devices (no contact to the original footers), this time i couldn't hear the changes after the 1st day, nothing improved or get worse since day2, the sound are still dull and boring and not engaging at all... Is it normal that the sounds didnt change at all for a week and it will suddenly improve? I heard most of the users experienced the change and up and down, but my case is quite frustrating and it didnt change at all
This reminds me of my experience as I was developing the feet. But let me back up a bit.
The 1st thing I look for is a potential mismatch between the component and the feet. The good news here is, I don't see a conflict. The 2nd thing I look at is the surface the feet are sitting on. Again, I see no issue. So this is all good news, but does not explain your experience.
I experienced an extended dead period that was followed, in my case, by an extended period of brightness during the footer development phase all caused, I suspect, by changing things around. In both phases the sound was clearly not right.
It might be the case that repositioning the feet was enough of a change to initiate a resetting process. This could vary from component to component and be part of the cause of your experience. The other more obviouscause is the switch to the Pacific. This is a great product and CS2M is definitely compatible. No worries.
I went thru a 3 week period of deadness followed by another extended period of brightness, as I said earlier. I'm not saying this will happen to you. Every system is different, as Steve likes to say.
I ask you to hang in there and, as much as you can, give it some volume for brief periods. Get the air moving and the components excited. This will help the process.
Call me if you wish or please continue to let me know how things are progressing. The bottom line is that all will be fine.
