Perfect Path Tecnologies ‘The Gate’


Having been a music lover and audio enthusiast for more decades than I care to admit to I’ve had the privilege of owning some tremendous components over those years and thought I had attained a level of musical enjoyment that would be difficult to improve upon without spending more money than I could afford. Then along came The Gate to turn my audio conceptions on end. 

While I was quite skeptical of all of the positive proclamations regarding the Perfect Path mats, cards and contact enhancer ( how could they possibly bring about such sonic improvements?) I took the plunge and purchased a nano bundle to see what the hubbub was all about. Much to my surprise they not only brought about improvements to my systems’ ability to recreate a more musical sound but did so in spades. 

When Tim of Perfect Path Technologies asked if I wanted to try his new product, The Gate, I jumped at the chance thinking it would be a nice addition to what the other products provided. I wasn’t prepared for the quantum leap The Gate brought to my music listening pleasure. As much as the other products brought about a much lower noise floor, greater detail and delicacy, improved dynamics, richer tone and more realism The Gate does so in magnitudes difficult to describe. The best way I can describe its affect is unreal purity leading the most realistic musical sound I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing.....outside of a live performance obviously. It has me listening to all of my CD’s as if for the first time again.

I have no idea how The Gate actually works or what it does I just know it’s the most dramatic tweak to my system I’ve ever experienced and I wouldn’t think of being without it. As to how it’s implemented, it’s installed in the electrical panel with one lead connected to the common buss and the other to a breaker ( preferably 220). Hope I got the terminology correct.....I’m far from being an electrician!

At $4,999.00 it’s not cheap but worth every penny to me as I’ve spent more on components with less sonic improvement. 

Lastly, I realize some will scoff at something they can’t understand and I get not understanding it as I don’t, but I would hope people could keep their skepticism healthy and civil. I am not here to promote or sell, nor do I have any affiliation with PPT. I am only sharing something that I’ve found to be transforming in my system. Sorry for the lengthy introduction.

I never bought the Gate, I wish I had though.

I have found that as I have improved my component selection the Omega Mats under that equipment seemed to add a edge to the sound. Removing them along with the cards, paste sounds more natural. So I have sold most of them.

But, I still keep some of the mats under my Oppo 205 and other video components.
And, I still have 4 of the Omega Mat +’s inside the breaker box.

Perhaps should i sell my idea instead of giving it free ? 😁

I create what i called a "golden plate"...

Shungite tile+ copper tape on the external side of the application...

I use them all along the main location of my electrical grid with success and no "edge" to the sound...

I use them also behind my speakers posts cables and on my main central electrical panel and even outdoor on the electrical meter box, inside on the main router etc...

I use them with a very small shungite plate tough on my Schuman Generators grid....

But i give idea to all free of charge, and guess what nobody want to try them really....Cost is peanuts compared to competition...

They prefer throwing thousand of dollars of money....

I am too old to create an audio company.... If someone try one i will be interested by his review...

The "golden plates" are my main tool to drecease my house electrical noise floor....What i called one of my embeddings controls...

😊

P.S. dont use them near an amplifier or near a dac or a cd player they will compress the sound ...Sometimes i use them with an Herkimer diamond to make the effect more refine...
@oregonpapa ,I remember going through this thread few years ago. Did not know the owner passed away. Looks like they had some good products. I read good things about 'The Gate', but it is not a product that you buy on whim. Surprised that the company nor the products continued under a new ownership.

  • I have a spare Gate that I am not using at the moment. I found one to be sufficient on the main panel along with the Omega emats. If anyone is interested, please PM me. 

^^^ Someone should jump on that one for sure.
