Wrapping aluminum foil around the last few inches of your AC cords and connectors does the opposite....makes things forward and harsh.
Graphene for audio
A few weeks ago I did an interesting experiment.
I bought a pack of 5pcs of 8"x8" Conductive Graphene Sheets, and I place them above my integrated amp, above my speakers, above my DAC, above my PC and above my power distributor.
I left the Graphene Sheets for over a week, and I was listening to music every day.
I definitely heard something changed over time, but in the end, I’ve got a powerful sound in mid and low frequency, with a significant reduction in the high frequency.
Once I started removing the Graphene Sheets, I immediately noticed that my setup will "breathed" again.
I’m comfortable to say that Graphene "alone" sounds dark and does not improve clarity.

gill_92, what are you trying to do? Just messing around? You say it's a foil. One of the qualities of graphene is how thin it is, right. So is the foil sprayed with graphene? Graphene capacitors? Graphene is 100 times as strong a steel. Graphene, coal, and diamonds are all carbon base. I wonder why it changes the sound over time? It's non-ferrous (not magnetic) right? I also wonder what it would sound like in a cable build? LOL Have to hunt some up.. Interesting... Regards |
artemus_5 I left the Graphene sheets a month on top of my components, but the sound became too dark. It was very evident in every piece of music that I listened to with knowledge. The same story above my speakers. Fortunately, I managed to sell them all, so now the chapter is closed. For those who asked me what I wanted to achieve, nothing, in particular, was simple curiosity, totally failed. |
Since Graphene is defined as being only one molecule thick, i.e., two dimensional, and is invisible, it’s obvious by inspection 👀 the “Graphene sheet” is not really Graphene. Who knows what it is? 😳 Graphene gets a bad rap. It’s being produced by the ton all over the world but nobody knows quite what to do with it. |
Pardon my ignorance, what is an 8"x8" Conductive Graphene Sheet? Last I checked, humanity hadn’t figured out an economical way to make large graphene sheets. I always assumed the graphene products on the market to be gimmicks: not true graphene (I.e. one continuous, single-atom-thick layer of carbon that is technically one molecule). Has that changed? |
