Volcano
The Volcano is our new crystal design for the lowest cost. It costs as much as our old popular VibraDome Blue Star while also being bigger with our newest and best H2U2 Crystal Formula. This filter is surrounded with red PVC, black crystals and varnish.
Volcano is the best match for thin, smooth and airy sounding hi-fi equipment like Marantz and other brands. Volcano will compensate for those flaws and bring neutrality to the audio system so you can enjoy music like never before.
Subjective impressions
Below are subjective listening impressions and you may get different results in your audio system.
The famous VibraDome Blue Star had a fresh and liquid clear sound, but the bass was in the background and it was a bit thin. When I switched to Volcano I heard more resolution and heavier bass that contained more texture. It's a lot warmer but also scarier and sharper. The improvement was equally big as when I upgraded my amplifier and DAC.
Now it's time to add a 2nd Volcano into the system. First I placed them beside each other on my Heed Canamp amplifier, there was a further improvement but not as large as the first one. Then I tried stacking two Volcano on top of each other, this tuned the sound to give more oomph in the bass and gave a more powerful sound, but the overall performance was similar. Next I added another piece onto my amplifier, I had 3 Volcano beside each other and got a bigger soundstage. I upgraded it further into 5 Volcano and the soundstage increased in size again while making it smoother and warmer.
With 7 Volcano I could hear an echo deep in the soundstage that I couldn't hear before. The Vocals were smoother and had more information in them. The vocals were less "shaky" and not "incomplete" like they were before.
With 8 pieces of Volcano I could hear a little more echo that continued forever in the soundstage, the sound quality now approached perfection.
