Handcrafts, Tabletop Hi-Fi

[Endorphin]

Hi!

Quality sound comes from stationary, expensive, AC powered units. That I think is true. What about battery or adapter -operated tabletop devices with integrated speakers? I made a few units by hand, they employ craft techniques not available in mass market units and make better sound with crisp treble. What do audiophiles think? Does quality sound come from stationary units only, or do quality tabletop speaker/amp systems offer something to hear?

IME solidly made speakers stands definitely enhance the sound.

I had my own made up by a local metalwork shop.

I am less convinced when it comes to the amp and other similar items.

They are solid state and a little vibration should not matter,

unlike valves (tubes) that suffer from microphony.
