One aspect that has been overlooked is that a mat will affect the component above and below it regardless of shelving according to Tim. My components are in a vertical rack and I have placed one under my Preamp, magnet side down on the shelf. Immediatley below this is my PS 10. My second is magnet side down sitting on top of my Sony Sacd player and below my Meridien 508 which sits on top of the sacd player. My top shelf has my turntable. My VAC monoblocks are on separate floor stands. This was Tim's suggestion. I might add he has been very willing to help me find the best starting place for the mats. I added them a week ago and I have found a a significant improvement in the sound stage in all directions, especially depth. The timbre of each instrument is more there-the only way I can explain it. The result in not terribly subtle-my wife with hearing aids noted all of this without prompting. It's clear from the discussion that the next mat will be in the breaker box.
Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat
I’m curious about this product from Perfect Path Technologies and would like to hear from those that have experience with it. I’ve bought and used the Total Contact enhancer and like what it does for my system so I’m interested in hearing how this Omega E mat performs.
