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.

Chris has been forthright with me about his claims for the gel. Several of us here validated his claims further beyond day 1 musical performance improved in all facets.

If he were able to remove the insulation from the conductors, apply the gel and then re apply the insulators then for me there would be a high probability his cable would be better. My senses tell myself thats possible..Kool to compare treated as I desctibed with an untreated sibling.

@theaudiotweak You're av@ghasley 's questions, and with good reason, because you have no way of answering them satisfactorily.

As evidenced by the claims that the Nano-flo power cord beats “$3,500 power cords”, Nano-flo is explicitly claiming that a nano-flo treated $5 Home Depot power cord outperforms all other power cords up to that price. Do you believe Chris is being forthright in this claim?

Do you mean the claims Krissy initially made? How would Chris know anything about audio efficacy (other than what someone told him) since Chris has no audio gear?

 

I've already said I take no issue with anyone using the now lime green gel on anything they desire. To me that's like accepting that freedom of or from religion is a peaceful and mutually respectful stance. This is your thread OP and I doubt anyone would have reacted any more than the usual contact enhancer threads. Then Chris chimed in.

 

Back to the power cord: Are you a candidate to purchase the Nano-Flo power cord? If so, why? If not, why not? Is it that you don't believe it beats all comers up to $3,500? Is it that you don't believe it works as advertised? Is it because of price? If it is because of price, at what price would you try it?

 

Lastly, you stated earlier in this thread that you had no business relationship with Nano-Flo, is that still the case? Have you received any accommodation whatsoever from Nano-Flo as this thread has evolved?

 

I guess I will just have to look for the guy with the white van in the parking lot at Axpona hawking hand-sanitizer-like gel with suspended nano particles...guaranteed to solve whatever the potential buyer might be subliminally thinking. You guys should be embarrassed... sheepish, about any association with Chris given the way he has handled this saga. I would cast a vote that the penalty for being complicit with Chris in any form would be a sentence that you could ONLY use the amazing Nano-Flo power cord on all of your gear for all of eternity. That'll show ya!
