Also Emile, can you provide a second set of footers per Daiza? I'm thinking of isolating a server and dac on the one platform.

Hi Marc,
The footers you can see are on the underside of the platform. The Daiza is not supplied with footers for your component to the top of the Daiza, which is what Peter is referring to. So you could (in theory) isolate 2 components on a larger platform with 3 footers. I would personally *not* try to isolate 2 like that and instead buy 2 platforms as that will provide superior results.
Fortunately you found that the spiral was the best shape for your panzerholz platforms - the pattern of parallel grooves was patented years ago for audio racks. There are many interesting patents in this field, including techniques to study the platform resonance.
how Emile tried the spiral is a story in itself. i will let Emile tell it if he is so inclined. like most ideas it was confluence of causes.
Dear Mike,
I just looked at the video with you making presentation. In the video, I hear your voice has a lot of sibilances. Maybe you need to tune the vta of your vocal cord a little more to please a visitor like Ron. Did he complain about your sibilances during his visit btw.
seriously; i struggle with my diet every day to try and maintain my health. my father died of congestive heart failure and diabetes at the age of 76. so that's my alternative.
my 'KOB' is the 1995 Classic Records 4 disc 45rpm reissue. i have a shrink-wrapped identical backup too for 'lifetime coverage'. agree it's amazing. jazdoc prefers his KOB OP white label mono. i have OP stereo and mono pressings (not the white label) of KOB but personally the 45 trumps all to my ears.
so there is that.
but i would say that if i need to mainline musical goodness this is a good place to start.
i have 2 different KOB 15ips 1/4" master dubs of unknown provenance. they are pretty good. my 4 disc 45 smokes both my tape dubs.
and honestly this music is so good that my redbook files are super-duper too, and i have a 24/196 file that is crazy good. it's no accident this is the all-time most popular jazz album.

I was being polite saying the OMR45 not as quiet and the piano sounds different. If ddk spirit possessed me, I would say it is a piece of shit.
Your single sided 45 is now $500 a pop.

i suppose if ever a recording was worth stepping up for the best example, this would be that one....with a bullet.
Emile, I have fantastic results w RevOPods and Panzerholz under my Zus. The Revopods are absolutely enhanced by Panzerholz underneath.
Have you at all considered Daiza as an all-in spkr isolation system? Provide the Daiza footers with a choice of screw threads, do Daiza footers secure tight to the spkr and isolate on the Daiza plinth below.

Bill answered your first question, spot on.
I have yet to investigate speaker applications, there is quite a bit more to consider there.
every one of my 5 Tana active isolation systems include two Dazia's (one on top of the TS active device and one under each LPS) + Stechi grounding block. then i have 3 more in passive mode.
one can never have too much panzerholtz.

Mike have you tried the Setchi grounding block with the passive Daizas?
not yet. OTOH, i am the guy who has grounded his passive speaker towers (with the Tripoint Troy Sig) to good effect.
does this stuff ever end?
it's like peeling the world's biggest onion. always more to learn and hear.
no.
not going to consider -4- 750 pound towers on loose platforms. if a Dazia type product gets engineered for that use my mind is open.

Kind of Blue is a typical case where listener preference is the main criteria for selection - there are many versions of the recording, mastered by different people. No one knows how it should sound. It is an LP that should make partisans of ultimate turntable speed accuracy nervous - for thirty years the recordings were issued at the wrong speed in one side and no one noticed ...
Great music in any version anyway!

Extremely true. It is an essential part of the stereo sound reproduction - but some people hate it!
Reading this thread i start to listen
Cool.
Mike do you have that, the one above on tape?

This thread is inspiring so I'm listening to this right now, just for fun, because music matters (multich 5.1 surr layer) ...
