Alto-Extremo from Germany, finally back in the US, is celebrating their 10th anniversary and has made great improvements to optimize resonance transfer with a wide range of absorber feet.
When used properly, Alto-Extremo's absorbers create unprecedented sound quality with better three-dimensionality, clearly defined instruments and outstanding dynamics. Alto-Extremo strive to make their absorbers as flexible as possible so that they deliver optimal results regardless of how you use them (see Alto-Extremo's absorber chart picture).
Alto-Extremo Lyd I
Alto-Extremo's most successful absorber can be used optimally in every system. The superior design with precision brass interior components and stainless steel exterior parts, as well as the two damper rings, create excellent resonance transfer without allowing any vibrations to reach the base of the device. This function is necessary for higher bass precision and for an open and clearly distinguishable sound profile.

Customer feedback:
"...I have the Alto-Extremo under everything and have to say they are quite amazing... until the Alto-Extremo footers (Lyd II & Fat-Boy) I never realized how much distortion from vibrations was affecting the violins..."
"...anyone who wants the highest quality isolations devices get Alto-Extremo. Phenomenal. Highly recommend."
"...these, my second set of Lyd II, this set placed under my turntable, increased the clarity and speed of the set up. Like switching to a London, after using a MM or MC. Quite profound & illuminating the effect of these remarkable devices!"
"...the rubber ring is in fact part of the 'magic' of the Lyd II, it gives the Lyd II a more soothing sound, although less accurate. So for me, the Lyd II proves to be a much better buy than the more expensive Finite Elemente."
"...I wanted to let you know that after three weeks of listening with the Alto-Extremo Lyd I absorbers under my von Schweirkert speakers, the sonic effects are quite positive. Less smearing of the mid-range, tighter bass, etc. Although pricey, excellent product with significant results. They should be recommended by the speaker manufacturer, esp. for wooden floors."
"...This is my fourth set of Alto Extremo, a Fat Boy this time, and I have tried the Lyd I, II, and Exact.... I am so happy about the resulting sound improvement."
"...these feet/absorbers (Lyd II) are in a class of their own, so obvious is their ability to reduce feedback. 5 Stars!!!!! Indispensable!"
The Lyd Technology
Lyd technology makes these absorbers very flexible. With the outer damping ring the absorber’s effect is magnified. Try the absorber with the damping ring on the device as well as on the surface itself. Try the absorber with the damping ring side to the ground and you minimize vibrations from the device and disconnect the ground. If you use the absorber with the damping ring side to the device you disconnect the device and minimize vibrations from the ground.
The self-adjusting puck compensates for uneven floor surfaces. The inner component is flexible. They can tilt to the side, if the floor is uneven. If you have an older wooden floor or a uneven tile ground, the Lyd I, Lyd II and Exact can compensate that. That's no height adjustment.
Questions for the seller |

Do you know the thread pattern of the original footers in the Kronzillas?
The original footers are screwed on to the base with an M6 screws and nuts.
Best regards,

Will these Lyd1s work with my KR Audio DXL amps? What about the thread pattern on the amps? Yes, they will work fine underneath your Kronzillas. I have a Kronzilla too and use Lyd II set/3. You don't need to replace the original feet on the amps, you just place two Altos underneath the amps on the front side and one Alto on the backside.
Best regards,

Please, remember that I live in Quito, and we have earthquakes here, so I prefer to screw the footers in to my amps. Any difference between Lyd 1 and 2 under tube amps?
I’m also considerind the Exacts under my ARC Ref.10 preamp. It can be done. The Kronzillas have 3 additional holes in the base plane (two in the front and one in the back). But these holes are M6 holes and the Lyd absorber needs M8. So you would have to drill the holes bigger. Then you can mount the Lyd absorber with short M8 screws directly to the base.
The Lyd II is bigger and able to absorb a higher amount of vibrations.
From the Exact absorber I have only one set/3 in stock at the moment. You probably want two sets for the Ref.10 I assume.
Best regards,

When will you have another pair of Exact available? I will have more Exact in stock in about 3-4 weeks.
