I’m gob smacked. What were you’re aha moments?

Ok thanks for these guide...I will experiment with that for sure...

I will wait for your long story if you tell it...My best to you...

Creativeness buy more satisfaction than only money...I am with you Elisabeth, many audiophiles want to pay big bucks to assure themselves...I dont have money then I must be creative because I dream of good sound music...Cheaper than cheap is my motto...and buying used... My  actual system is so musical that I am no more frustrated by costly one I cannot afford to buy...

Geoff I am with you for the magnets...But mine are only on the batteries not in contact with the gear, and they are only fridge magnets, and they make a very sensible difference on the small batteries I use... My stones cabled and crystals audio grid is not connected to the gear and exist near the amp ,near the dac and speakers, no magnets is directly in contact with a piece of equipment, it is not good and I am perfecty ok with your advice...My house electrical grid is also cleaned with stones...And I use aluminum sheets to isolate piece of gear from one another...

By the way it is you who speaks to me of the Stein Harmonizer that included in his design crystals and batteries if I remember correctly...I was pleased because that confirm  the effectiveness of my own design by an another road...I only added some magnets to the batteries because the effect was more effective... 

Yes 2 cheap mats will be used here nevermind where ...But I hope and I am confident to notice an improvement like the one you note...My systems with stones and crystals cabled connected grid +batteries+magnets is very musical and the noise threshold is lowest after all that I did....Thanks for the idea,nevermind the results...

Only one Perfect Path Omega E-Mats cost more than the total sums paid for all my gear,including 2 headphones AKG K 701 and K 340, 200 bucks for the 2) ,an amp,(Sansui AU 7700, 100 bucks ) and a dac (starting point systems nos, paid 24 bucks new on a bid), and my speakers (Mission Cyrus 781 paid 50 bucks) then I cannot invest in one of these mats that sells 600 bucks with a system cost around 400 us bucks...

But my system is already cleaned by my stones grid and the electrical house grid is also already cleaned by my own design grid and I hope the cheap solutions of Elisabeth will makes a sensible difference in my system, a perceptible one because of my lower noise treshold... I just paid 20 bucks for 2 magnetics fridge mats...I will report later...

Thanks Elisabeth I will try the magnetic sheet also...In my batteries+ stones and crystals cabled grid I added magnets to the batteries with success, then I dont doubt the results with this sheet magnet under the gear...I will try it for sure...

Most of the times, except for drastic and very costly changes, few changes or upgrading of gear in my experience rivals the astounding results I had obtain by cleaning the audio grid and the electrical grid of my house with my own cabled batteries connected stones grid......By the way most people, some professionnals included, underestimated totally the higher noise level that percolate in their audio system unbeknownst to them … That is my own important discovery pertaining to audio and gobsmack moment ...
