Name: Andy Fawcett, Merrimac, Australia Review: Substituting two Stabilizers for six Eichmann Toppers on my preamp gave a slightly tighter bass and improved transient definition – at a much lower overall cost.
I also tried a Stabilizer on my Meridian CD player – to my protest that it already bore what the manufacturer describes as a 'non-resonant' glass lid ... The Stabilizer’s presence does nothing for the player’s refined aesthetic, so I was really hoping that it wouldn’t work – but it did, improving bass coherence and overall definition. Name: Lynn Kelley, Bella Vista, Arizona Review: Just wanted to let you know the big dots, iso-cups, grungebuster and top weight have transformed my system into a sonic delight. As soon as 'she who must be obeyed' gets over it, I'll be ordering some more (may take a little while) Name: Norm Handwerger, Baltimore, Maryland Review: For the first hour or two, I didn't think they did a thing. Perhaps that was because I didn't know what to listen for. Once I started hearing their effect, I couldn't stop noticing their effect. Depending on where these Stabilizers were placed on my CD player (using two stacked) would make dramatic differences. Some spots would start sounding overdamped, others the bass would get muddy, and still others would have little effect. It took me a while to figure out that very incremental movements of the Stabilizers would effect the sound and finding the best spot for the most recordings took a lot of time (still not sure I've got it best yet, but good enough for now). Hard to describe what it does, but it does smooth the highs and make them more palatable. Provides better image/instrument separation and everything sounds clearer. Removing them is now unthinkable; I hear a loss of refinement when I take them off so now these Stabilizers have become a necessity rather than a mere tweak. I also tried mass loading by placing a weight on top of the Stabilizers. I didn't care for that at all. Killed the dynamics and just made the overall sound unlively. I don't know how these things work, but they do. Truly amazing. Name: Michael Anda, North Dakota Review: The Stabilizers work really great; I have them on my DAC and transport. They met and exceeded my expectations. They are quite an improvement and an improvement over the grungebuster damping sheets previously used. Name: Michael Shover, Westminster, Colorado Review: The Stabilizers went on top of my DCS P8i SACD player, mass loaded with some 500 g brass weights. The mids and highs are very slightly smoother sounding. No change noted in the lower octaves, but for the price I'm very happy with the results. Name: Tim Kmetz, Bloomington, Illinois Review: Adding supersonic stabilizers to the top of the cd player and amplifier refined the sound even further. The stabilizers give a ridiculous amount of value for the price. Name: Brent Feorene, Lakewood, Ohio Review: The two SuperSonic Stabilizers are sitting on top of my phono stage which itself rests on three Iso-Cups w/Lampblack Balls. Very nice combination – cleaned up a bit of "fuzz" on the vocals and gave a "cleaner" overall presentation. My analog rig is my largest investment and my baby – digital is for convenience and practicality – not everything comes on an LP! Name: Martin Jeeves, United Kingdom Review: Very pleased so far with your tube dampers and the iso-cups/balls and stabilizers. The system definately sounds more controlled and natural. A big thanks! Name: Neil Gowlland, Geneva, Switzerland Review: I am extremely happy with the stabilizers. I believe that the rattling top plate of my Sugden A21a integrated was generating resonances that were corrupting the music signal. As soon as I tried the stabilizers (presently the two are stacked but I will experiment further) there was a noticeable improvement in detail and overall musical lucidity. My wife put it best when, unprompted, she said that the system sounded better and more mellow. Obviously the rattling top plate had been adding a harshness to the music. Name: Allan Shapiro, Potomac, Maine Review: Using the stabilizers throughout the system produces a subtle but repeatable improvement -- rather the way very fine sandpaper makes wood feel smooth until you go over it with extra-fine. Thanks for your help.
