My new audio tweaks

Talking about hifi tweaks, there are so many different brands offering various types of tweaks, more than one can ever imagine. To my friends and family who knew nothing about audiophile stuff, they will give me “that look” of disbelieve if tweaks would really work.

Last month during the Great Singapore Sale, instead of shopping for clothes down at Orchard Road, I was at Adelphi and Shaw Towers. Bought 2 things, this Voodoo Iso-Pod Isolation Systems and Soundcare Superspikes.

 

 

Voodoo Iso-Pod Isolation Systems 
I purchased the Iso-Pods from Audio Iconic. They didn’t cost a lot ($65 for a set of 3), so why not give it a try? So, I’ve got the Iso-Pods placed under my CD player/dvd player, replacing the Unicone Feets that I was previously using. I’m still in the midst of trying out the Iso-Pods with the rest of the system and see which yields the most significant result.

 

Soundcare Superspikes (Spike 2) 
Superspikes were from Musiclink, another cheap and affordable tweak. They are to be used between the speakers and speaker stand. Due to my current listening position (I’m sitting on my bed), my ears are positioned slightly higher than my speakers, thus the imaging goes off a little. Fitting a sofa in my room is quite impossible unless I remove my bed and sleep on the sofa instead. I guess my best option now is to elevate my speakers as to bring them closer to my ear level.

 

Look out for Mini User Reviews on my next posts :)
