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.

It is easy to verify that a field around the amplifier interact with all the pieces in the amplifier...

Take a piece of shungite put it on the amplifier and you will hear a compressed sound, at best more dense sound...

Take a piece of quartz put it at the same place you will hear a more decompressed sound at worst harsher...

One of my series of experiments begins with that....

You can make the same experience with cables...

I tried 30 kind of rocks with varied results always different and very specific....

"This is how eMats and eCards work."
We are just waiting for revelation of the word "this".
mahgister and millercarbon make some good points. Any material in close proximity to the signal will change the sound for better or worse. Identical electronics with cases made of different materials will sound different. Different mats, feet, platforms and furniture materials will change the sound. One needs to experiment with this in order to understand what materials work best.

Einstein is exactly what he used to be. A golden ear audiophile who can hear the difference when suspending his cables with rubber bands but not, according to himself, the difference when tube rolling in his tube integrated.  How is this even possible?
