Static is a much bigger problem than is generally realised. On cables, a massive problem. Static spray doesn't cut it.
Chemically Altered Audio
Is there any interest in a discussion about home-made formulae that can significantly enhance audio quality? After reading some recent threads here, it appears that one company which had been involved in this aspect of audio is no longer in business, and has no immediate plans to reopen. I would not be making this offer if that company was still operating. My recent experiments in this area are extensive, and most of it is unique. The experiments are not influenced by the products of any other company. I would like to share the results, if it's not too controversial, and if such a discussion would not cause difficulties for anyone actively involved in the business. I certainly don't want to hurt anyone by revealing and discussing what I know. On the contrary, I would like to help open minded readers get started on some very cost effective, radical home-made solutions. I can describe in detail the steps necessary to create some home-made formulae which have proved to be very successful in my own system. I'll await reaction before I continue.

I have active grounding on my SR Galileo SX cables. They are greatly improved by even a small piece graphene/mica antistatic material, taped anywhere on the surface of the cable. It appears to me that active grounding has no effect on the static charge of the cable. It does however have other major beneficial qualities. Here's a link to a Chinese company selling graphene/mica for antistatic coatings https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/manufacturer-graphene-conductive-mica-powder-for_60854960887.... |
Thanks
whostolethebatmobile. I find this very interesting. And I think a reasonable person will make a reasonable decision regarding stuff like this. So I do not think it hurts at all to discuss some things that have worked for somebody else. One thing I have done is a combo of some others ideas. I made a wooden 1x2 2' long, put 3' legs on it and then hung cotton string down with cradles and put behind my rack. The string and cradle hold up my cables individually. Keeping them all separate, and I think slightly isolated from vibration. Anyway it works better than cables laying on the floor. Thanks again for sharing |
