The great thing about this type of thread is that it gives me the opportunity to update my ignore list.
I don`t have an ignore list, I just ignore people randomly.

Too far away?My CD player is on 8, I tried it on 14 but it wasn't very noticeable.
The Mana Effect might have been a lucky discovery by John Watson, but how it works is not magic. It is certainly not an isolation system. Quite the opposite, in fact. Properly tuned Mana couples whatever it supports to the ground, which provides a mechanical drain for parasitic vibrations from motors, transformers and suchlike. This is the reason the LP12 corner bolt mod works, and why LP12s sound better on Mana.
But, and this is the major but, if the stand is not perfectly leveled with equal contact on all four corner spikes and glass shelf is not correctly tuned, the path to ground is massively compromised with the attendant deleterious effects everyone thinks of about glass and metal. YMMV, of course.
It seems more likely to me that there is some kind of pleasant musical resonance going on in each stage which accumulates with more stages maybe?... Is the effect more pronounced at louder volumes?...
