Yamamoto Sound Craft MGB-45 Magnet Floating Base

MGB-45 is an earthquake control plate base that uses the principle of magnet floating base as it is. Applications include amplifiers, CD players, analog players, etc.

MGB-45 is an audio board floating the board itself by the repulsive effect of magnetic force combined with a strong African ebony base with neodymium magnet at the bottom four of the beautiful asada cherry blossom collection material.

The MGB-45 employs the same magnets as the MGB-2 to achieve magnetic floating and is suitable for relatively lightweight equipment ranging from 1 kg to 9 kg. It is primarily intended for use with devices such as preamplifiers, D/A converters, and CD players.
When placing an amplifier or similar equipment on a board, using isolation spikes (such as the PB-20) between the amplifier and the board further improves sound quality, resulting in an even more robust and vivid sound.

Improves S/N ratio and creates clear reproducibility

Compared to ordinary audio boards that dampen vibrations, the magnet floating base floats audio equipment almost contactlessly to prevent vibration from being transmitted from the floor. Not only vibration from the outside, but also resonance of the audio device itself and reflective vibration to the enclosure. By eliminating noise, the S/N ratio is improved, the sound field becomes quiet, the outlook of the space is good, and the sense of localization and resolution is also improved with rich information volume. The bass is deep and powerful, and the treble range is sharply elongated.
In particular, the unnecessary bulge of the middle and low range is absorbed, the balance of the response becomes uniform, the sound tone is mild, not turbid, the transparency increases and the way the detail comes out becomes clear.
Since the effect of fine vibration on the circuit is absorbed, the focus is tightened and clarified, the position and depth of the instrument are clear and the overall presence is increased.

It is suitable for compact CD players and pre-main amplifiers, but it is also effective with power boxes. Unexpectedly effective, the SN improves further and the background not only quietens, but also clarifies the detail of each sound. It is especially noticeable in piano and a cappella because you can hear sounds that have not appeared before. With the impression that the expression increases, the music adds dense. Even in the orchestra, the touch of standing up is vivid, improving the sound quality more than you imagine. A board that can demonstrate a wide range of effects from various angles.
