| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I'll do that and be happy to compare any of the contenders to a N52 cryo'd magnet that has a mu-metal collar around its center. Even add to the lineup a cryo'd copper rod cut and polished to size. And your right that shouldn't take long. Tom | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Don't try this at home. No fuse rolling for me as I have been using cryo treated N52 magnets for years. Direction is obvious as you follow the ac voltage in and follow the dc voltage rails. Couple bucks apiece before doing the cryo and treating th... | |
| Cable Cooking/Burnin Yep..energy is always in a search for a better pathway to ground. Whether energy is riding in it or on it. Tom | |
| Cable Cooking/Burnin Cryo treatment is permanent unless the material is brought to or near its annealing temperature as told to me by Dr. Randall F. Barron of Louisiana Tech University. A thousand years ago or so I emailed the Dr. about the benefits of cryo treatment ... | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Lack of highs can sometimes be heard as lack of distortion or noise taking an unwanted free ride along with the musical waveform. Perhaps a case of mistaken identity. Maybe your hearing a more pure and non polluted signal coming from this pair of ... | |
| Novum Resonator Alternative RoxyYou could try bolting together a pair of Hi Hat cymbals and hear what happens with this higher mass combo. The pair maybe more similar in weight to the Novum resonator. If they rattle when joined you could place some felt dots between the 2 wh... | |
| Novum Resonator Alternative Roxy Looking at your thread 18 hours later it seems as if I barged in. Sorry about that intrusion.What you have started here is very interesting and your methods and observations should be shared. I for one am not a user of damping materials and I... | |
| Novum Resonator Alternative I agree with both of you.. it is a sound director and an acoustic resonator. While the front side is directive the back side is reflective so positioning to the rear wall is important. Like Roxy I wondered if this unit could be mimicked in some wa... | |
| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre Geoff,Every product you have mentioned at length is a transducer..a converter of one energy form to another energy form. All transducers have loses and yes that's (what you want) and (how you think). The Star Sound products are not based on that s... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Dave,Glad to see your back home.And you brought your madness home again to Texas.What a wonderful madness to have. Dangerous to no one other than one's wallet.Tom | |
| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre With the Case closed as you indicated the vibration is trapped. Coming in from all directions. And the beat goes on in a fashion. Damping slows the release and decay of energy, there is no fast pass thru only more buildup of noise and friction. An... | |
| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre Geoff,In what way does your proposal for a sharp pogo stick provide a path for resonant friction to leave the audio component? Tom | |
| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre Spike your chair and shake your booty and your toes tap along.Live music sounds better when you wear leather sole shoes. | |
| How an audio rack can enhance your amp/pre Back in the day the chemistry of choice made the vibrations more active and apparent. Active Engagement was the descriptive term. Coupled resulted in a better body rush than isolation. Same is true in this day and age all in the context of audio r... | |
