However, multiphase was advertising to extract ££££s from his acolytes.
Is this any different from your incessant posts about Linn or even Naim.Still whatever. The subject has been done to death, nursed back to life then killed again many times. As the stuff is no longer available I see little point in arguing about it. I have my opinion, you have yours. End of.
You were one of the biggest promoters. Odd number phases are where it’s at. Oh, you need another phase. It all happens at phase 9. You need phase whatever...
The one unavoidable issue with Mana is its need to be properly tuned. There is a sequence and method, especially with the slightly flexible Ref Tops and Stages. Get one layer out, and all bets are off.Not a big fan of glass supports and hifi full stop.
IME, Mana works best on solid concrete floor..
Bare concrete, perhaps. Mine spikes through carpet and underlay. I've actually put my LP12 on top of the 5-Tier instead of the Shelf. The Linn sounds better coupled to the concrete floor than it hanging off a timber-framed wall (even with both sides of the Shelf firmly anchored onto studs).A rack or table with no Stages or boards involved sound harsh and nasty on a concrete floor, in my opinion. Once you get some wood in there it's fine. A wooden floor is a pain but I think it sounds better. You need to re-level the damn stuff once it sinks into the floor. If you don't, the whole thing goes off and sounds like crap.
