| Anyone using Sendust (Fe,Si,Al) to absorb stray EMI? Obviously the acronym EMI can have more than one meaning, such as electromagnetic induction. Thatās why Sendust is used in inductors and induction motors. Itās a mu metal. Am I repeating myself? But most people take EMI as the acronym for electrom... | |
| What Sonically is the Difference between a $1,500 CD Player and a $10K-$25K One?

| How does wood hardness affect the sound of a TT on a wood TT platform? Hardness of wood is related to stiffness which is useful in resisting bending forces, I.e., isolating against rotational forces.

| Anyone using Sendust (Fe,Si,Al) to absorb stray EMI? Quick Study on mu metal (Sendust is a type of mu metal alloy with specific applications, e.g., high power inductors). Mu metal in audio applications is found in wrapping speaker magnets and wrapping transformers. The percentages of metals and the ... | |
| Anyone using Sendust (Fe,Si,Al) to absorb stray EMI? Yes, Iām qualified to make those comments. You obviously are not qualified to understand them. No offense. |
