Back in October at RMAF 2016, Dave Gordon from ARC introduced me to Michael Latvis of HRS. We had a great discussion about how I have top level components but something was missing that I sometimes hear at these audio shows. He said that isolation from vibration was an important aspect in audio that is often overlooked. I was skeptical.
I borrowed a few Isolation bases from my dealer in Seattle and tried them out and was blown away. Dynamics were more pronounced, yet everything seemed more relaxed. In short, it was the kind of laid back feel to the music that I often hear at shows. Notice those shows almost ALWAYS have HRS racks and bases!
Anyway, my dealer made me a financing deal that I couldn't pass up and I grabbed up the new S3 isolation bases. Three of them, in fact. Plus a few dampening plates and Nimbus feet and a record weight. No idea how much they help, but I am sure it's good stuff.
I plan to put under my TT, my Dac, and my Preamp. I will probably be pretty much the first person to try these new S3 bases, since you can't find them anywhere online, they just announced them a couple days ago.
I will post some kind of review when I get them in a week or so
