C37-Speziallack
I have been reading and researching C37-Speziallack, a lacquer developed from years of research by an Austrian master violin maker. This lacquer has been modified to have special resonance controlling properties. Violin lacquers are not just cosmetic but are used to enhance desired resonances and limit others in the maker’s quest for sound. But in audio we want all the resonances vanished-and here C37-Speziallack offers a new and different approach.
The theory behind this product is simple but almost unbelievable:
Our physical hearing system is made up of bone (which is mostly carbon, or chemical symbol C) operating at the body temperature of 37°C - hence the name C37. Our ear bones have their own particular set of resonances at body temperature, and as such could be expected to make our hearing a little bit 1ike living inside a constantly ringing church bell tower - but for most of us it's not like that, so there must be something more involved.
The C37 theory here is that we don't hear these ear bone resonance's because the brain’s operating system (some very good "C37" filters) eliminate these resonance's s without affecting what we want to hear,
The result of applying this quasi magical C37-Speziallack to a resonance prone/sensitive surface or object is not to make it less resonant (that's almost impossible without adding a lot of mass) but to shift these troublesome resonance's to match those of carbon at 37°C -therefore causing them to be automatically filtered and ignored by our brain's hearing system.
It has been claimed that this lacquer brushed onto the paper cones of speakers and after several weeks that it takes to dry, the resonance's 'coloration's reduced remarkably. The claim is not only speaker cones are affected but CD's, tubes, cartridge, capacitors, signal wiring etc. etc, etc. all benefit from C-37-Speziallack and the improvements are not subtle according to my findings.
So now my question, has anyone had experience with this incredibly expensive lacquer?
