    Hi Jrhyme,
    with regard to the url you posted; I've seen the Halcyonics device come up recently. Do you have any experience with this platform, and how much do they cost? Have you ever heard of Minus K? Their platforms are used extensively by government agencies, but they are bloomin' expensive. Funny enough though, I read a paper recently, by a research foundation at a well-known university. Given the cost constrants of their project, they set out to find out the best solution to vibraion isolation for a low price. You would be very surprised at what they found out from their research and what they ended up using. Their research, I believe, utilizes electron microscopes.

    Thats right Bert - I forgot you have 100 McIntosh watts. That serves nicely! I like your choice of music. :16:

    thank you :)

    a 100 mcintosh watts indeed serves the Thiels nicely, never had problems, it never loses control over the speaker, never sounds harsh or thin, it's exellent...


    Keep them spinning,
    Bert.

    Bernd, when I was checking out links on the MC30 there were more than one article that linked Shanling and Music Hall together on this project. Maybe MH uses Phillips transports. Do you know what the relationship is? One article plainly says it's the CD playback. Reading about it is how I realized the unit contained a CD and tuner--Mr. Peabody
    Don't take this as gospel but I think that Music Hall is a subsidiary of Shanling. The tale that I heard that MH was devised to attract consumers who might otherwise be prejudiced against Chinese made products. I've never spent anytime researching this, so y'know take with a grain of whatever.

    Check this out: http://www.elusivedisc.com/prodinfo.asp?number=MHSHMC30

    I know a dealer who carries both MH and Shanling, I'll email them to see what the deal is. It's not really important and both companies have a decent rep, I'd just like to see what the tie in is.

    I personally thought MH was American and owned by Mr. Hall.

    I was told Music Hall is the importer for Shanling. So I believe that MH does not have anything to do with the building or internal parts of the MC30. The response I received didn't elaborate so I assume there is no more to it than that.

    I own a Shanling piece and auditioned MH along the way. What I understand is that Roy Hall (of Music Hall) essentially contracts Shanling to build his pieces.
