"The wooden platform has a rather complex design. Its frame is made of solid Canadian Maple. The supporting shelf laid into the inner frame brackets isn't very thick and of the same Maple. The support spikes making contact with the frame are more hardened high-carbon steel. The spikes pass through short tubes of a porous rubber-like material. These can be removed and treated as a cover protection during transport or be left in place to minimize micro displacement of the mounted spikes. I haven’t yet mentioned another component that makes this more than just another anti-vibration platform. Finite Element together with the Dortmund University developed proprietary resonators which are short steel cylinders with internally floating steel wings whose length determines their resonant frequency. There are six such resonator types set to 220, 486, 512, 550, 670 and 882Hz. They vibrate in resonance with the shelf and also convert vibration to heat by sympathetic action. This German anti-vibration system is outstanding. It does not alter the sound in the sense that colors with and without it remain the same."
"I'm sure you will be caught off guard with the dramatic changes wrought by the Finite Elemente Pagode Amp Stands—I was. They have the ability to eliminate sound degrading artifacts created by your audio furniture. That's right: along with the good stuff, your audio furniture is also the source of sonic degradations. Hard to believe, but you'll hear the difference. Treble edginess goes away and the presentation relaxes. The Stands were developed using laboratory measuring tools and have solid scientific principles behind them. The platforms incorporate a brilliant and novel use of resonators to eliminate excitation nodes from your component shelving. The tuning is non-invasive and of a musical sort."
