New Omega E Mat from Perfect Path Technologies
I haven't tried the quartz as I'm primarily using the Perfect Path stuff (have some of the Shungite tiles).  My friend who I originally lent the first Shungite tile has ordered more and will probably get more.  He also did a demo for a couple of o...

Received a couple of regular emats and a couple of plus ones (in addition to cards - already had a plus mat and cards) and will be listening soon.  The Shungite tile and shielding tape (noted earlier in this thread) do work to a lesser degree.  I ...

I had a Bryston 3BST in the secondary system (along with an Odyssey Candela preamp and a Meitner MA-1 DAC) driving Ohm Microwalsh Talls (augmented by a Rel Strata III sub).  I had a friend bug me about Class D in the summer of 2017.  I had last se...

Hegel makes nice products.  I use a Hegel H190 in a secondary system driving a pair of Ohm Microwalsh Talls.

Yes - I've used the copper tape on the external direction and have some Faraday tape to try and have some more Shungite on order.  Great find - thanks.

Is OPPO worth the inflated price?
" You can get a fabulous second hand audiophile player for that amount of cash. I know what I'd pick"Totally agree. Given the more limited Oppo support (vs. in the past) at this point a little bit over list might be OK and a new one (given the fa... 
Is OPPO worth the inflated price?
Oppo currently provides communication via email only (unless it changed recently which I doubt).  So if you have questions, there is a need to detail the problem and send them an email.  As noted earlier, I have an Oppo 203 that sees little use.  ...

Owned 2.3s and helped deliver a bunch of 2.4s.  At one point, they changed the tweeter in the 2.3 (helped replace a blown one in one speaker and had to replace the other to match).  From memory (long time), the new one might have been vented in th...

He actually got the $85k list price speakers used for something like $27k with shipping (that was probably about 15+ years ago).  The room was probably about just over 9 feet wide by about 17 feet with metal Boltz LP racks all over.  We took out a...
