I understand Tom Thiel has been working with surface treatment of a speaker baffle to enhance laminar flow while also reducing interfering energy. This energy migrates back and forth on a vibrating surface and causes a pile up of noise that does r... 
I treated my room !
Over the last year I implemented laminar flow devices I have built and placed in strategic front locations of my 27/21/9 ft room . I also have for years now 3 Natural wool panels on the front wall 1 each at the side reflection points. The laminar ...

The Mills are a great value at $5.00 but the Path are much better at $25.00.Maybe the Path's are not 5 times better but for me the difference is significant depending on how many are needed. The Paths are closer to the Vishay bridge builds. Tom

I would not change the inductors but would change the resistors to the Path brand or with the Vishay nude resistors and build a bridge so you can reach a 5 to 10 watt power rating..Cost for the Vishay product would be over $100 per position. Other...

I have replaced all the steel fasteners in my system with brass including the circuit board standoffs and mounting screws and transformer lock down bolts, nuts and washers. This is a practice I have applied since the late 80's. thru to this day ev...

Several people need to walk away from all of this madness. I cannot stand it here. Tom  
Acoustic treatment and acoustic mechanical control over gear upgrade for improvement
All of my room correction is mechanical. Angles on a ceiling portion and angles on a soffit.  No foam in use only real sheeps wool behind cloth covered stretcher bars and only 5 of these in this large room. I use 1 each of the threaded inverted Au... 
High Fidelity Cable replaces NPS 1260
The 1260 sounds better than the Total Contact. Have not tried Rick's new product yet. Tom

  As I said previous with different words. Some people sell stuff, and they don't know how it works. Is that science or just luck. Mahgister and I are grasping straws, but we know how and why they work so we put them to great use as we do with ...

The difference between the crowd of one or many  and Mahgister is Mahgister understands that the shear velocity of any given material shape is the source for what we are hearing  in our sound rooms. Some sell devices without knowing their most bas...
