Mitigating the Bubble
Today after many years of trials and tribulations I have mitigated a sonic aberration a horizontal phase anomaly in my center stage. While the center image was always stable and outlined it seemed narrow and bubble like and I would need to shift my body angle to really lock in the image. This was obvious on many CDs and LPs .
I have many man made fixes that helped the situation but never a total cure. Some of these are now permanent fixtures on the ceiling in 2 different locations. I made my own acoustic panels filled with long hair sheep's wool and 3 Argent Room Lenses. I have laminar flow lenses that focus and stabilize the image across the front stage. I have built and treated an acoustic fan that overcomes the boundaries with in my room by reducing interference. I have loaded my speaker cabinets 3 times with new drivers and now an outboard crossover. This was after my Essence 30s speakers and my Dunlavy SC4s. ..All my components are hard mounted and direct coupled to the floor...on rock solid racks and speaker stands, custom mono bloc amps each on their own stand. All of these devices and angles and positions made the image wider and more focused but I still had that little bubble and shift before me. Always less annoying with each new device and tweak.
So, your probably saying to yourself hurry up and get to the end. The end finally arrived today after having applied a contact enhancer 7 days ago to just 6 RCA ends out of many connections in my system. Today with a friend who has been here a hundred times sitting in the Chair playing the same music as usual he said there was a wider sweet spot. I despise that term but he said it and not me.What we both heard was a super stable center image that was a few feet wide and not just one. The bubble was gone. The head in the vise was gone. Off came the straight jacket and helmet. What I have now in this space intime is a glorious fully extended soundstage with all the meat on the bones and the features of talking heads on a real live performance stage.
I have probably used eight different contact enhancers over five decades but this one blows my mind. This product Nano Flo is the ultimate in transparency.

Good morning Nano Chris, I hope you woke up today and decided to honor your money back guarantee for the cables @glory purchased from and returned to you. Until glory posts that you processed his rightful refund, I and others will post each day to bring attention to your poor behavior. I’ll pose a few more questions which you will likely not answer: have there been other returns where you honored you money back guarantee?
@glory did you pay by paypal? Credit card? Have you filed a dispute? |
In the StereoTimes Review there is the following statement "NS Holographic 3D6 AC cords are said to be fully treated with Audiogon-tested NanoTube™ superconductive gel from end to end.[including the exterior nickel-plated brass contacts and outside surface of the cable insulators".
Per the reviewer’s statement would one not expect that the supposed "full" efficacy of the cable can simply be "corrected" by reapplying the gel to the brass contacts if it came off? The statement says that the contacts are not the only area of the cable to be treated. Not following the whole one time insertion/no movement, contamination, etc. narratives assuming that the entire cable is in fact treated with this gel.
BTW, is Audiogon and approved testing lab? |
@glory may have purchased the “original” version which was literally a $5 or $10 that anyone can buy from Home Depot or True Value Hardware freeby type sealed/molded power cord with the the Nano-Vaseline juice applied at the ends. Anyway, its way above our heads this amazing technology. It takes someone like Chris, with no hifi experience and no hi end rig to develop something like this. At least I know there is a place for those who fail at selling aluminum siding or pet insurance.
Careful who you endorse @theaudiotweak and mikeg. Character matters. Chris has failed to show any thus far but the day is young. |
