Isolation Devices Binge - Photograph of Some of the Devices

I've had a few people contact me to say that they don't know what some of these items are. I've taken a picture of a few of them which are currently "out of action". I'll try to get a photo of everything when I finish my binge (hopefully the end of this week).
Back row, left to right, Vibrapod (vinyl), Black Diamond Racing Cone on a Large Puck (carbon fiber based), Ganymede (ball-bearing), and Finite Elemente Ceraball (ceramic bearing under the top cap). Front row, left to right, Stillpoint (ceramic bearings under the cone), Polycrystal Isolator Cone (composite of inert materials), Aurios 1.2 (ball-bearings), and Vibracone (ball-bearing in tip).
In the lower picture you can see a Clearaudio Magix (magnetic levitation shielded) as compared to the Ceraball. I put this in to show scale. The Ceraball is about 1" high and 1.25" in diameter at the base.
I hope to have a report in by tomorrow on the Ganymede, Aurios, Ceraball, Vibracones and Stillpoints, all of which use ball-bearing in one form or another. I threw the Polycrystals and Black Diamonds into the mix as well. All were used to isolate my SACD player. I've begun listening to the Gingko Cloud 11, so that will soon follow.
