New Omega E Mat from Perfect Path Technologies
jerrybj ...How did your listening session turn out? Two more Omega + E-Mats were placed on the rear of the speakers in line with the bass drivers, with the results of more clarity overall. The three-dimensional aspect of the system is getting spoo...

Volume Wars-- Are things improving, getting worse, or status quo?
Last night, my friend Robert brought over an LP of 1939 recordings of the Duke Ellington orchestra that had to be transferred from 78 rpm recordings. Not sure if the new music is pure crap, but the old music is pure joy. https://www.youtube.com/w...

aniwolfe ...Sorry, I don’t know what to tell you about the mat placement on your speakers. However, with that said, I would paste the speaker baskets with Total Contact. Maybe others with speakers similar to yours can chime in here.The Omega + Mat...

New Omega E Mat from Perfect Path Technologies
I'm just a little over two days into placing the Omega + E-Mats on the speakers in line with the mid-range drivers. I didn't think it possible, but the clarity was even better this morning. These mats are staying in place. They will not be removed...
