    Cool Speaker Cabinet and Chasis Dampening.....BIG IMPROVEMENT !

    This is a very cheap way to get that big improvement and you really have to hear this to believe it! I put a five pound weight on my satellite receiver and two five pound weights on my stereo receiver and three sand pebbles ceramic tiles on top of each speaker (I stacked the tiles on top of each other) You can now fine tune the sound of your stereo system to your liking now! Just start my moving the weights and tiles around in different spots until you get the sound you like best......this does take a lot of time to get the sound to your liking. It's better if you have one person moving the weights around while your listening to your music......believe me, your going to know it when you find those magic spots! When you get it right....it's like listening to LIVE MUSIC! Now the magic weight may not be five pounds for everybody....it might be more or less, it's the same with the tiles too.....you might like the sound with only two tiles or some will like it with more.....but when you get it right your going to be AMAZED at the improvement! THIS IS THE REAL DEAL !

    This so good that it will have that dead cat of your's speaking in tongues! The size of these sand pebbles tiles are about 8 inches by 8 inches and are about 1/4 of of inch thick and are outdoor tiles......they are rustic like in color.......I already had people E-mailing me saying that they can not find these sand pebbles tiles anywhere ( I have this on other forums too) so your have contact Alex from www.mihorn.com and find out where he got his at....I had some left over from 13 years ago.....they might be hard to find today

    He is a salesman that much is clear.

    If you would like to try some tile on the cheap go to your local Home Store and find ceramic, vinyl, or porcelein tile very cheap for anywhere from $1.00 to $10.00 per tile.

    I guess the tweak he has mentioned has to do with simple isolation, coupling, de-coupling which can be done with very inexpensive material available at the local hardware store.

    That's what I thought at first too. Try this, try that. But now he's basicly saying that if we go out and get pet rocks and place them on our amps and speakers everything will sound so much better.

    He's got to be a regular who's bored and want's to stir us up. Kinda like a fireman who starts fires to be in on the action. We had a couple of those in this area a few years back. The thing that got them cought was that they always showed up at the fires before anyone else.

    So let's go back and see who is the first reply to each of his threads. My money says that's who the culprit is. Most likely, they are the hardest on him as well.

    Some of his ideas sound like they are out of the Mapleshade catalog. They advocate weights on components and check out their free tweaks, interesting. They also recomend placing small speakers close to the floor and angled up to the listener. Of course that will reinforce the bass.

    By the way GMichael I would think your avatar would be missing its head the day after Thanksgiving.

    Oh the horror! You raise a pet from a baby egg to be a part of your family for what? A few drum sticks?

    He's right. I put my bowling bag (complete with 2 16lb balls) on top of my sub. Now it shakes the whole house like no one's business. Now I'm going to try a bucket of water on top of my receiver. Hope this thing doesn't leak.

    Who's making fun? This is great. But now I'll have to watch all my DVD's over again. I put cinder blocks on each tower too. I even tought my cat to sleep on the DVD player. Now the colors are so much brighter that you wouldn't believe it. You've got to try this. And the best part is that it's all free.

    Some pushy salesmen deserve that kind of treatment.

    Hey SI,
    I bet you would have better luck if you came to a forum and talked like a human being, nice to people and helped them with their problems. Then as time goes on let people know what products you sell and you could build a relationship with the members. If you jump into a forum with both feet shouting "buy this" "buy this" you will drive everyone away and actually create enemies just by being too pushy.
