What Does Holographic Sound Like?
When I remove the ferrous metal cover of my ac mains box that resides within my listening room the audio playback is improved. When I put the cover back on the sound changes slightly for the worse and the stage shrinks. Tom 
Isolation Devices: Any Good Ones?
You may venture forward by replacing all the vessels of sand with the same type container using steel shot or brass or bronze. These materials are reactive in nature. You should also experiment with the fill quantity of each. Overfilling will caus...

Hopefully you will see that you are listening to darkness in a near vacuum. Tom 
Isolation Devices: Any Good Ones?
The laugh is the playing with materials that only lead to a dead end. Nothing reactive or geometrically conductive in a bag of sand or a box of lead. These materials have a high saturation point but also have a very slow time release of that same ...

SabaiYou can smother in sand and so are the affects with it's use in audio. Of course the same can be said and heard with MDF and all its glue glory. Tom

I use fish bowls filled with liquid mercury. It takes a while to break in but when it does you loose all sense of connection with anything at all related to the transmission of musical harmony. Tom 
Fuses that matter.
The magnets are directional as well but then they tell you that, at least on this end of the equator you know whats up...Try them with AVM. Tom 
Review: Intuitive Design/Pitcher Sound Labs Summit PSL 624 Speaker
Yes I am a fan of those products and have developed some new ones for acoustic instruments that rest on the floor. I sold Essence products back in the early 80's and have always been a fan of Dale's. The original amps with the Corian chassis and f... 
Review: Intuitive Design/Pitcher Sound Labs Summit PSL 624 Speaker
Dale's designs are always musical and beautiful in their look and construction. I for one, would consider grounding these speakers with something other than granite and Stillpoints. Either by design or by an accident of nature these materials and ... 
The Problem with Synergistic Research
I took the time to look thru Mr. Denney's patent application for his acoustic resonators. They appear to be well explained and different enough to be considered for a patent. Just my opinion and not one based on a legal backround. Good luck thru t... 
The Problem with Synergistic Research
How or why would someone think or bother to apply for a patent on work that was displayed by Franck T Chang in 2004 "The Original Acoustic Resonator". I suppose a U.S. Patent office agent doesn't have access to the world wide web. I would like to ...

This thread has become "weirder than a bucket of hair". So that means I am cutting out. Tom

Chad No I suppose I put that to the side. The magnet makes a huge improvement especially on the AC side of things. I have the magnets thru out my system. 3 in each amp 1 in each sub 1 in the pre amp and 1 in the transport. The DAC has a blade fuse...

Thanks so much for the reprints. Now everyone can read them a second time. Tom 
Fuses that matter.
I have not sourced or measured the variations across a fuse either nor have I attempted that measurement yet. I have measured the before and after responses of an audio chassis on different ground planes at the same distance at the same frequency ...
