I have three sets of these installed in my system, one under the power amp, one under the pre amp and one under the TT. Initial results seem to suggest a slightly livelier performace, bass a little more pronouced and a great sense of clarity. Things do seem a little louder with a smidge of increased sense of vim and vitality around the soundstage. I've had to turn the volume down a wee bit! I suppose this might help if I was lacking a little in the gain department with my cart or phonostage Anyway, has anyone tried these and what's your "take" on what they are doing to your system.

Ive got three under my dac.
I was supremely confident that my Hudson feet would be their equal...wrong. No idea why, but they do seem to solidify the sound.
I haven't done an A/B since installing the X50D, but that's to come when the LPSU goes in.
So far, they are keepers.

I tried under my amp and preamplifier. The did well at maintaining separation and coherence on loud busy passages, but my system is tuned for transparency to get the best realistic nuance of leading edges, shape of instruments, and the space they inhabit. I felt these blunted that slightly in some midrange frequencies in my system and the frequency curve also became slightly uneven and so I didn't keep them. However, that was before my USB3 changes mentioned elsewhere, so could have had a different experience after that. My experience is that these sort of things are highly system-dependent and down to presonal taste.
