Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil
Flat bottom caps such as the Duelund and Jupiter can be enhanced even further when mounted and secured on Audio Points .2's and APCD2's. I acquired a few years ago Clarity Cap DTAC caps that have a center taped bobbin and bolted these in my outboa...

Okay we do agree on the potential benefit of resonance control and that it can be fun and games or maybe not.Really exciting to hear a new breath or audio cue from a recording that I have listened to for years. That added breath that was revealed ...

Tbg. Norm, I new you were not being critical. The third word I used in my post happened to be the same word used by you in your post that's all. Sorry if my comments were misconstrued. In a description of my personal experience with materials and ...

I never resent the time I spend seeking out new materials, processes, proportions and blends that enhance the directionality of my products in use with musical instruments that touch the floor. Capturing the forces of nature and placing them in a ... 
Porter Ports or Cabledyne Cryo Hubbell 5362
The 6 single, double cryo'd Hubbell 5361's I installed with all non ferrous hardware and stainless steel cover plates sound wonderful. Less to resonate. Tom

Placement of the right material in the right place that has the right mass is crucial. I prefer to use materials that are of similar reactance that have much the same transfer rate and mechanical impedance and are of similar sonic character. Brass...

What I proposed limits the material contact between the floor surface and any cable.When you limit the surface area for a charge to jump across you also reduce the vibration that can be conducted from the floor to the cable. Neither proposal limit...

Basically using a non ferrous knife edge for minimum contact area.

Brass sheet material cut into small pieces laid on edge between the carpet and cables works wonders. It is a balancing act of sorts but once elevated stays in place. The material and minimalist contact area between the threads and the cable are th... 
What's the best Dac for the money
This with 8 stacked Dac modules with all brass harmonically tensioned chassis and outboard power supply mounted to 2 custom terminated Sistrum platforms...Don't use an aluminum chassis it is sonically much inferior than one made of brass. Tom http...

I sent 8 Hubbell 5361 single outlets to be double cryo'd. I have 3 20 amp dedicated circuits in use and will replace the current FMS outlets with these. I have some 2024 aluminum 1/2 plate that I will have sized and cut to fit the outlets. These f... 
Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil
I use product called AVM to control resonance on wire and connections. I have also used it as an adhesive like material between surface such as 2 capacitors. Somehow some way it seems to reduce distortion and noise without all the bad that comes a...

The weakest link is the worst part. The largest difference in a rebuild in my Dunlavy speakers many years ago was replacing the 10 cent sand cast resistors with bridges constructed of several Vishay .8watt metal film type at each location. The dif... 
THE GREAT AC OUTLET SHOOTOUT.
Riddle me this Batman could it be that this Judy is the one and not only Judy 426. That Demon traveled side saddle with Wc65Mustang who in real life with another alias is Audiofeil. Tom 
High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz
My suggestion is to think of resale value..who else may require or want to purchase a .6 meter cable. Some other brands digital cables take in account wave reflection. Their cables are only made and sold in lengths of a about 1.6 meters to avoid t...
