The amazing new Marigo Evolution Signature Mat
Color, finish and texture all three for sure. Add one more and that is material foursure.. Tom 
The amazing new Marigo Evolution Signature Mat
With our mat the edges did not need to be painted ..Secondary edge treatment was dismissed because the design encompassed the entire CD. Tom 
The amazing new Marigo Evolution Signature Mat
Couple of us at Starsound had our hand in the development of a CD cover mat several years back. Ours [I still have a couple for my own use] had a feature that no other brand attempted... repeatable top and edge cover all with the same device and t... 
Rick Schultz`s new cable
RickThanks so much for the suggestion and sale of neodymium magnets as replacements of fuses in the audio signal path of my sound system. Tom 
Upgrading Fuses
LaceeI have been using magnets instead of fuses as suggested by Rick Schultz for the last 5 years. Rick and I shared some common experience in amp layout, speaker design, resonance control and core ideas for cables. Rick's turn on of magnets were ... 
Isolation pads for the speaker stands
KizaNow remove all the sand and replace with reactive agents such as brass powder or steel bearings. Vibration will be attracted and drawn to these materials.Fill 25 to 30%.. The speaker needs to be terminated to the stand and the stand needs to b... 
Isolation pads for the speaker stands
The bass never changed..the spectral balance and dynamics changed. The sand and soft materials suck the life right out of thin air resulting in a dark and deaden sound..No air, what you have left is the perception of more bass and less of the musi... 
Upgrading Fuses
Replaced all the fuses in my system sometime back with neodymium magnets..No fires..only thing that glows is much more music. Tom 
What component is responsible for dynamics ?
Mechanical grounding is the main component, basis and foundation for dynamic expression. Material choice and geometry dictate the collection speed and termination of all things that are in motion...which is everything. Most audio devices are over ... 
MOSFET's vs Bipolar's
Belles uses Exicon lateral power mosfets..Luminance Audio used the Hitachi lateral power mos fets. Tom 
MOSFET's vs Bipolar's
Lateral power Mosfets from Exicon can be drop in replacements for many types of devices supplied by Toshiba and Hitachi. The Exicons supply 30% greater current have much greater speed and lower capacitance. In my particular amp they increased reso... 
RFI from steel TV bracket?
Ground loop from your cable tv or sat box. Unhook the coax cable from the source tv direct/cable box or sat and turn everything else back on and take a listen. Tom 
Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil
My auditory receptors communicated to my brain most recently that when I installed a pair of .68 Clarity Cap MR's directly across the 12 volt input of my hybrid Altmann multi dac that I was hearing more air molecules in my listening room. In fact ... 
Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil
Same applies to the rack or chassis of any other audio component. By..some more. Tom 
Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil
A room acts as a capacitor. How it may sound is dependent upon the choice or combination of reactive and resistive materials. Throw in your choice of geometry,alter the air pressure adjust the dynamic tension and listen to the signal flow. That's ...
