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.

@facten What I saw as adversarial, has produced a unique opportunity and I am preparing something for publication because of you, and you alone. Ill spill the beans but need a couple days and I'll provide a link - but in the meantime my hat is off to you brother for providing me the kick in the butt to just do it. Sometime this weekend I'll getherdone.

@ghasley Who am I, the inventor of a unique material that is secretly being used (in breach of my license) spanning a range of industries by others claiming to have invented it. I've been manufacturing nanomaterials since 1998 and introduced the original NanoLube, and within 2 weeks, shysters across the globe started claiming they were NanoLube. I got thousands of calls from people over the years wanting the raw material but never would except for global laboratory testing. Instead it was only available under strict use license for lubrication and not to be resold without a license and royalties. Take a wild guess how that turned out. On October 15th 2021 I cut off the Global supply and started servicing equipment with a five year warranty, but nobody was allowed access until my marketing test right here on Audiogon. The rest of the answer is in progress, so get ready. I have copyright to my story, so don't even think about it. For the full story you'll have to read the book or see the movie, if I can get around to it and I'm open to legitimate agency offers on production. 

@mijostyn and @twoleftears it might still be a free country, so you seem to currently have the right your opinions, however my is opinion you both are acting silly:(

@twoleftears Good point, and another case of snide comments triggering an opportunity. I also single handedly repaired (nanolubed) the East Elizebeth River Swing Bridge for the Norfolk Southern Railroad and I believe its still on youtube.

out for now,

@nano-flo - My intention was not to be adversarial, nor was I picking on Tom. I noted his comment as a reference to why I had stated ’aborted" in one of my posts. And, I was not upset by not being a beta tester. I did in fact state that I was interested in your product. Why that illicited the following threatening response I don’t know.

"You have questions, lay down 5mil and I’ll keep you informed as to my schedule that is adjusted daily, but if you spill the beans to anyone (too) - you wont be happy with my next decision".

No need to worry about me anymore, my interest in your product is no longer there given what you stated to me above. Threats don’t play well with me

My soon-to-be-introduced X-Boson unguent will blow all other contact surface treatments out of the water (and half way to Pluto).

@facten cyberbullying is a crime, no matter what your age and if being called out for it hurts your feelings...?

I recently found out that anyone using Total Contact over the past 10 years has been getting my unlicensed nanodiamond without knowing it. That has been corrected and no longer allowed to be mixed in that highly toxic carrier.
