With 3 feet (not a coincidence to be TRINITY) positioned closer to each other, the console can vibrate more freely (with less constraint) to deliver natural sound.

An accident (spring break 2012) occurred while relocating console feet . Two power transistors and a 5 watt 1.2 ohm resistor, part of the amplifier push-pull circuit, were damaged. In the early renovating stage, short-circuiting transistor legs also happened, resulting in the failure of 2 power transistors, one 5 watt 1.2 ohm resistor and the left channel speaker. Past failure experience helped the salvage efforts. However, it was really that the Lord gave me one more chance to bring the console back to life. God gives second chances. They say so.

High cost and impressive cosmetics has little to do with the ability of audio electronics to convey the stunning musical event being sought after by the music loving audiophile. Too often people are fooled into hearing through their wallets. If a music system fails to allow the listener to be overwhelmed by the the naturalness and emotional impact of what it conveys, money may have been wasted . Also, through any audio electronics; what is heard is only a facsimile of the "live" or studio event . Presenting the most realistic, convincing, and enjoyable illusion or facsimile is the key. Only the best synergy of music system elements will yield musically impactful results. By the way, much of the audio industry is banking on your dissatisfaction with what your music system presents. Purchasing their expensive offering will get you "there". Not necessarily! (4-11-2013)
