    Minus K Isolation Platform BM-8

    Agreed, those are all great questions. It's my understanding that the Minus K should work better the closer the active device (in this case, the TT) is to the technology (a point with which Minus K reps agree). But of course I emphasize the word "should;" the proof is in the testing and listening.

    Kii 3 Response

    Certainly no trolling here! But I do disagree with part of your assessment, Brucemck2. I also own a pair too and I think that they are exceedingly good on well-recorded music, but I do not find them excessively poor on not so good recordings (which, if I'm to be honest, make up the majority of...

    Herzan/Table Stable "Active" Isolation table.

    Interesting. Thanks for the reply. BTW, it's not as though my Arden desktop stands don't offer some isolation, just not as much as might be possible form some more "extreme" solutions, I think. Thanks again for the reply!

    Minus K Isolation Platform BM-8

    Thank you again! I thought that the crank on (most) Minus K platforms was to adjust the loading--I thought that they were (adjustably) mass agnostic. Is this wrong? In any case, my thinking was that the 15kg Kii THREEs are almost a perfect match for the MK 25BM-10 (... 1kg too heavy, but...

    Herzan/Table Stable "Active" Isolation table.

    A good question--and a good point. As I said in response to your note on the other thread (just in case anyone on this thread is interested), I have my Kii THREEs on my desktop on Ardan desktop stands (I listen in the very near-field). My plan had been to pull the speakers off my desk and...

    Minus K Isolation Platform BM-8

    Yes, I double-posed on both threads, since both seemed to be more-or-less related to my interests. Anyway, thanks for the feedback! First of all, 7-8 platforms, that's crazy money--I think you'll have more $$$ in platforms than I've got into my whole system! If you'd indulge me, would you...

    Herzan/Table Stable "Active" Isolation table.

    Hi All, great thread! As I read it, most suggest that isolation works best closest to the source (though it can have a favorable impact wherever it's used). But I am using Kii THREE digital active loudspeakers (a moderately sized monitor speaker) (with a Kii CONTROL digital preamp and an...

    Minus K Isolation Platform BM-8

    Hi All, interesting thread! I have a: Kii THREE digital active loudspeakers (a moderately sized monitor speaker), a Kii CONTROL digital preamp and an ultraRendu streamer (w/ LPS-1 ultracap PS). Period. I don't have a TT (sorry), nor do I have any real interest in heading down that path right...
