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.

Simply amazing…make it up as you go along. Make claim, test afterward.

After reading your rude comments here and on the Diamondback thread, and after checking all my email accounts for your anticipated correspondence but not seeing any, I retract my kind offer to send you a free sample, but it's up on eBay should you ever want to experience something lightyears ahead pf Total Contact. And it wont give you cancer either.

I will have fuses up on ebay next week, and once I get a few thousand bottles filled I'm off to the big A.

Warmest Regards,

The new kid on the block.

I perceived an increase in dynamic range after application to only 6 rca ends. I can listen at much lower levels without feeling the need to jack the volume up as much as before the application. Is the gain in percieved dynamic contrasts the same as "Louder'?  Cannot remove and measure and then reapply and measure again because nano particles may not be able to be totaly removed..and then the fact I dont have any more to reapply to measure again. I trust my ears and experience with  my body as a listening tool.Tom

I would rather trust a measurement, then the testimony of someone making seemingly wild claims.

But then there is no going back now, as application has all the mythical elements of Achilles being dunked in the river Stix.

 

 

And oh yea, tastes like chicken

OI know chicken and snake can seem to have a similar flavour.

You have little to no credibility. You have yet to answer the question. Claims of increased electrical conductivity and yet, you have no proof. You have been asked repeatedly “how do you know electrical conductivity is increased” and “please share the before and after data you relied upon to make the claim” and so far….crickets. Communicate the data or don’t, no big deal to me. The $1000 power cable you now offer for a $5 throw away home depot cable was “a bridge too far”. You should be ashamed that you even thought that was a good idea.
