YG Hailey 2.2 + CMS CenterStage2 LS footers : Mind-blowing!

[steve williams]

You misunderstand (and I didn't mean to suggest using only 2; "2)" was my second thought), I certainly wasn't referring only to CMS, as my post should have made clear. But if 4 is better than 3, why not 5, or 6, especially on heavier components? And would 6 of the 0.8's be better than 4 of the 1.0's or 1.5's?

On a separate note, I don't find the LS on the website or in the brochure?

We are waiting for the LS 0.8 so photos can be taken of the entire LS series it

as for why not 5 or 6 or more ..... I can’t speak for other products but Joe’s CS2 feet have been voiced for best SQ when using 4. It’s that simple

You know that sounds like voodoo, don’t you? I’m not trying to be insulting, only appropriately skeptical. There are a lot of similar products out there and all have their vocal supporters and often Web pages full of measurements and testimonials. I know you are enthusiastic enough about CMS to have become a dealer and I respect that, but that’s not quite enough for me to lose some degree of skepticism. I could mention that mine is mild compared to that expressed by some others (including some reviewers).

when Joe was still doing his research and development of CS component feet it was his initial thought that 3 would be sufficient. However his curiosity made him ask if 3 sounds terrific what do 4 sound like? Well it sounded far better with 4 rather than 3. It is for this reason we include a set of shims with each order

Steve, what material are the shims made out of? I presume the shims are meant to be placed underneath the footer. That is between the footer and the rack shelf. Is that correct?

 

[steve williams]

Metal alloy of some sort and are always placed under the foot. Rarely is a shim needed IME but a set has 3 different thicknesses

I wouldn’t take it so literally. Obviously there is a use of poetic license here to make a point.

I have seen this same story (Hailey + feet = Sonja) propagated by the designer of the feet himself.

it would be a very clever marketing claim because it is so easy to realate to and who would not want such a thing? Pretty brilliant IMO.

Imagine how much you could save!
