Why don't combining both coupling and decoupling ?

71.167.225.12

Hello there: Here my excellent experience with my speakers. I have suspended wood floors, so the macrovibrations coming up from the floor to the speakers are a serious issue. Hence I began with a 2" thick marble platform to reject those macrovibrations (actually changing their frecuency as somebody explained me) Then on top of that marble platform I have the Auralex Gramma (from www.sweetwater.com) which is the vertical center of the Isolation System to absorb both vibrations coming up from the floor and the microvibrations coming down from the speakers. Now my Ribbon Speakers have screwed underneath four Megamounts (from www.mapleshaderecords.com) which drain the microvibrations from the cabinet of the speaker to a 4" thick mapleshade platform, which is mounted over a set of 4 additional Megamounts screwed underneath. Those Megamounts are resting on the Auralex Gramma mentioned above.
During the past 10 years I have tried so many different coupling/decoupling systems with various results, but after so many experiences and evaluations I designed this one with magnificent results: the sound exceeds my highest expectations. Best, Antonio Machado.
