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.

I have been following this thread for the last week. Often read Audiogon over the years. Never felt the need to post, but this is just too good of an opportunity. Did it ever occur to even one of you that Diamond is not a electrical conductor. It is an electrical insulator. Not just an insulator, but a very good insulator. Even in small spherical sizes. |
I would have real doubts about a nano scale diamond ball lubricant too. Diamond can be an excellent low friction surface, when both surfaces are coated with diamond. Things won't "roll" on nanoscale diamond balls. The balls would just dig into the surface. I have to say, I loved some of the stuff from his website. The mechanics, and other mechanically inclined people may find some humor:
That's some amazing breaking of the laws for thermodynamics. But wait
Does anyone want to tell the creator of this story what the wheelie bar is for? Of course, you have to feel for the misunderstood inventor (emphasis mine)
But strange, all these first hand accounts, but never a few bucks paid for ASTM-D6425 testing (or similar) a common process for high pressure lubricants. I do love the chutzpah of the price list, a few extracted here ...
Of course, with a product that will take your SEMI from 5 to 8.5 MPG (no, really they make that claim), the prices seem like a bargain.
