Test der Vortex HiFi device feet VN 30 DB


Forget everything you have learned, tested and even experienced in countless hearing comparisons!

I have to admit that I was very sceptical myself when Mr. Maurer of Vortex HiFi introduced his new maple feet to me on the phone, because these products were quite different from what Mr. Maurer has brought to market in terms of effective sound optimizing products.

I couldn't imagine with the best will in the world that a few simple wooden feet placed under a hi-fi device could produce a real sound gain, as described by Mr. Maurer. So I first ordered the small version, the Vortex HiFi device feet VN 30 DB via the sales department. When they finally arrived, I was of course very curious.

Test report on the Vortex HiFi device feet VN 30 DB


We listened to two different stereo systems, which are also available in completely different price ranges. On the one hand, this was a T+A stereo system with MP1000E, PA1000E and Dynaudio Confidence C2 as speakers. A hi-fi system at the highest sound level. The second system consisted of a Musical Fidelity M3si Vollverstärker preamplifier and the brand new Oppo Sonica DAC as a player. The latter fetched the audio files, as well as the T+A system, from a Naim HDX audio server via network. The speaker for this second system was the Dali Epicon 6, which was actually completely oversized for this purpose. I was supported in the hearing test by a good music friend, because four trained hi-fi ears listen better than two.

After the basic sound comparison of the two unequal stereo systems, in which, as anyone can imagine, the T+A system had a clear lead, we, without further ado, placed the 30's Vortex HiFi device feet under the Oppo Sonica DAC and pressed the Play button. OK so far so good. But what happened now can hardly be put into words. We both looked at each other as if we had never really listened to music before. The second stereo system was suddenly raised to a sonic level equal to that of the untuned T+A system. It was simply unbelievable how the second installation gained in spatial representation, stage width, details and a detailed drawing. When switching directly between the two systems, only the loudspeakers with their different sound characteristics have made the difference.
