Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat

Grannyring;
I did spend a fair amount of effort on Mat placement. The difference was very small but with a single Mat I prefer the Mat’s logo facing the equipment. With two Mats I have them placed with magnet side facing magnet side.

Bike frame and designs are very analogous to audio systems in that vibrations, storage and release of energy, how stiff, how flexible, measured improvement, and rider perceived improvement are all at play. 
Especially fun was Time trial racing while riding a carbon fiber recumbent in the early 2000’s. At speeds over 16 mph aerodynamics are the major cause of drag.

Yes, reducing vibrations in audio is very important and makes a huge difference if done correctly. We have been doing a lot of experimenting with seismic vibration reduction lately and now need to move on to PPT products which I hope will help calm stray electrical “vibrations”. The Gate is going to be a particularly interesting product I believe, this I am thinking might be built into a dedicated audio consumer unit also using TC housed within a non ferrous damped enclosure. Any thoughts on this?

For anyone using PPT's Total Contact  ... 

I can't emphasize enough ... paste the inside of your outlet covers of the outlets you are using to plug your equipment into. Big gains in SQ to have there.

Last night we just hit about the four-week bump after pasting the circuit breaker switches. The clarity of the system is really unbelievable at this point.

Additional e cards

I purchased an additional package of the e-cards and installed them on the speaker cable connections from the amp and on the speaker cable connections feeding the speakers. These speakers do not have cross overs. I also added an additional card to the power strip. 

The immediate benefit was an noticeable intensification of the overall musical presentation. In other words, a more lifelike presentation with better PrAT. With this improvement alone, it is as if I have upgraded a power cable costing three times the price, I should know, because I have.

I am also trying out the rca covers on my office system. The impact was a subtle improvement in detail and some lowering of the noise floor. But I have been on the road a lot, after Installing them, so will not do any serious listening till Friday.

I will report if, further improvements present themselves, as ”break in” occurs with both products.
