Description

Recently moved and found my new room the most challenging to date. Limited bass response initially and placed speakers closer to rear wall than I would have preferred. Isolation under each component in addition to Nordost sort cones under cd. Possible future upgrades include turntable and ability to handle computer/streaming audio (DSD). Looking at Nordost Sort Fut to replace speaker spikes. Any thoughts??

I'm located in London, Ontario. Have had the Edge pre in the system for quite a few months now and I am loving the sound. Have been thinking of switching in the Allnic pre because I have not heard it in my system since I replaced my speaker cable to the Nordost Valhalla. Really like having both options and switching between them but have been considering just keeping one and putting the value towards an upgraded turntable or some type of computer option-dac, streamer?? Big step and have not reached the point yet. Best wishes.

Forgot to add the Allnic H-3000 Phonostage to list-very happy with this gear. Also recently traded nordost Valkyrie speaker cable to Valhalla series 1. Wow its hard to believe it could make such an improvement and also allowd speakers to be moved out from wall and further a part with noticeable increase in bass response. Have been thinking the floor may be more the issue and have been looking into ways to decouple speaker from floor. Have had the Edge pre in the system for a number of months now and sounding very good. Will probably put the allnic pre back in for winter months. I really like the sound of both. Playing lots of new vinyl lately and the sound is great. Miss having local audio friends to help with opinion sound, set up etc. Best wishes.
