Black Pod footers
Just took delivery of 5 sets of 3 each Black Pod ceramic and zirconia footers. 2 large for under my James subwoofers and 3 small sets for under my Focal Diablos between the speakers and the stands. The company is called Mad Scientist Audio from New Zealand. They also threw in some of there other products as free samples to try. The reviews are very good for all of their products. I have 5 sets of stillpoints and will be able to do some comparisons.
Shipping was amazingly fast from NZ to Canada pricing was much less than Stillpoints. image-941330466.jpg Last edited by jdandy; 12-14-2017 at 01:50 PM. Reason: enlarge photo. |

Can't wait to hear your comparisons. I have Stillpoint Ultras under my Bryston Model T's. Looking for something under my Bryston amp next.

So far the Black Pod Footers have made a very positive difference on my James EMB 1000 subs. Bass is much tighter and better integrated with my Focal Diablos. I haven't installed the Black Pods under my Diablos yet but should have the required machine screws for the weekend. The most amazing thing has been the Black Discus that was included free with my order. I placed this on the plug end of my Lawton modified Fostex 600 headphones. All I can say is wow! I have no idea how this thing works but it is very easy to hear the difference it makes I just have to lift it off and I hear an immediate change for the worse. With it in place everything is tighter and more musical. I wouldn't want to go without this thing anymore.
So far very happy with the improvements from these additions. |

I don’t notice any difference between the stillpoints and the black pods
I will use black pods for any new equipment because of the considerable saving in money |
