In Reply to: RE: HAL Tenderfeet Vs. Brightstar Isonodes under DAC? posted by Quint on June 28, 2016 at 04:00:15
Hi Quint,
Actually, that helped a lot. Thank you,. I'm leaning towards the Tenderfeet for now,. I also have an Oppo, a plain 103 with a modified psu section. I'm using it as a transport for audio but I still have to compare it to my old Theta Pearl cd transport that might need recapping soon. I'm slowly going back into audio after a hiatus; and some video too recently.
Yeah, I've had elaborate isolation stuff too from Harmonix (used) and some British made adjustable spikes that I sold off along with a turntable. So it can really be rabbit hole cost-wise..
Best regards....

You're most welcome, Fred. Glad to help!
Just FYI, if your factory feet on the DAC are kinda tall, you might want to look into the Big Tall Tenderfoot , which is useful in lifting a component clear of tall factory feet. I use them on my Coda integrated, which has beefy footers.

Hi Quint,
Thanks for the tip.. I just might do that too with the Oppo for more clearance.
Regards..
IME, Herbie's Audio Lab Tenderfoot feet placed under a Museatex DAC for many years now clearly outperformed a set of IsoNodes. YMMV
Thanks Duster!
Looks like I'm going for the Tenderfeet... I might even spring some more for my tube Phonostage + external psu, and my Oppo if I get good results from the DAC.
Regards..
I have Tenderfeet under all of my components. I have tall firm tenderfeet under my power amp. They clean up the sound a bit without altering the sound signature of the component.
