| Need help in trying to trace cause of distortion Suggestion: no music for three whole days.Clear your head, clear your ears.If you agree that "what you pay attention to, expands"the time off can allow the problem to go away, or atleast, for you to listen anew without paying specialattention to "... | |
| Perfect Path Tecnologies ‘The Gate’ Neodymium magnets seem to enhance the effects of the Gate.In an open breaker box, I have cut a strip of anE+ mat and used double sided tape to stick it tothe side of the Gate that faces the room.The small barrel shaped magnets are sitting on the m... | |

| Miracles in Audio, by luck, by good choices,by design or by tweaking... I just posted great results with three S.G.s (usb versions)and 10 foot cables. I found a plug online that has 3 ports.Too easy!I have both Synergistic Research hfts and DIY hfts.Placing one hft in the middle of the S.G. is very nice.Maybe I shoul... | |
| FEQ and Schumann Devices I started with one FEQ and two Schumanns in the room.Then I bought three Schumanns (Ebay), the size of baseball cards.Placed them in a triangle on the wall behind my speakers.The middle piece about 7' height, the others at 6'.Dividing the back wal... | |

| You know you've been thinking about speaker placement too much when... Have you ever read Descartes' "Meditations?" | |
| Mid Morning Listening Sessions - Sounds the Best I am rarely thrilled with "sound" early after waking up,even at low volume.It is as if being horizontal for hours has made it harderto listen critically and be happy with the result.Scientific explanation?Anyone else experience this? | |
| Chemically Altered Audio I agree. Tutti Frutti provides a great enhancement in sound quality,on the level of E+ mat's. Apply on Gate, circuit breakers, components, cables and power cords... anywhere power can be affected. Thank you, Mark for generously sharing a great a... | |
| Synergistic HFT’s with Martin Logan’s Too much of anything can have a negative effect.For me, too many HFTs on the same wall hurts the sound.Please send the link on SR website of the new product.I am not seeing it. Did they contact you with some kindof advance notice?Is it your perso... | |
| Synergistic HFT’s with Martin Logan’s Buy yourself a bag, online. Use quarter size pieces,quarter inch thickness is good. Color and irregularshapes are not important. One side of the glass canbe smoother than the other.Improves the effect of HFTs, IMHO, rather than just sticking th... | |
| Synergistic HFT’s with Martin Logan’s I own Prodigys, with many HFTs applied.Better sound, yes, expand sweet spot, NO,since the HFTs can accentuate the 30 degreecurve of the panels, not work "against" it.Maybe this is not an issue for you?I would start with Wide Angle HFTs, I think th... | |
| If I have good local shops available, should I restrict my purchasing? Excellent, thorough evaluation of different options! Good job.All "should" issues revolve around "personal preferences,"what someone LIKES. As opposed to some moral imperative,dictated by some "code," right?As you have noted advantages and disad... | |
| Adjusting speaker positioning. What, if anything, to expect? I think this has been missing, so far, IF you are insisting on trusting your ears (alone):Pick a piece of music that you are very familiar with,and enjoy listening to. Pay attention to parts (sections) of the pieceyou like best. Focus on the sou... | |
| Chemically Altered Audio Bat, how bout starting with a definition of terms.By "solution" do you mean "answer" or are you referringto a liquid or creme? And "chemically altered," doesthat simply mean you combine two or more substances together?What do your creations do th... |
