Critical Mass Footers under Mono Blocks?
Critical Mass Footers under Amps?
I am not sure if using the Critical Mass footers 1.0 size under my mono amps is a good thing. The bass maybe seems a little less dynamic and deep, but I am not sure.
Can anyone add input or share on their experience using these footers under amps?

Re: Critical Mass Footers under Mono Blocks?
Heard many systems with CS2 / CS2M 1.0 or 1.5 footers under stereo or mono amp with amazing result. Since amp is usually much heavier so the larger the footers the better the result.

Re: Critical Mass Footers under Mono Blocks?
Consider also their new "ultra" footers. I never used the older versions, but the ultra had a very positive impact in my system (although I don't have them under my monos).

Re: Critical Mass Footers under Mono Blocks?
Thank you for the comments. The amps are sitting on top of a 4" maple base which has 2" Audiopoint's underneath. Perhaps I have too many?

So, today I reinstalled the Critical Mass footers under the amps. Even though the bass may seem to be less, the soundstage is wider, deeper and more enjoyable. (BTW, I have 6 sets of the CM footers under my components).
