@deludedaudiophile . Indeed I most certainly have not been holding my breath 😉, merely amused at the content of the proclamation.
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.

"After today's fictitious lab results it's now headed for industrial service only because you guys were mean to me and asked me questions about my claims that I can't back up, and when it transitions, it will not be publicly available. (Test results could not be explained because I didn't want to hear them and put my hands over my ears and went 'lalala', so my cables, enhancer and fuses will remain for sale until I pull them). Which means when none of this nonsense sells." xoxo Chris |
@theaudiotweak I'm not saying you did or did not betray Krissy...I haven't any idea. I'm just saying I get the idea from the various posts in this thread that Chris wouldn't have clue one about what the "contact enhancer" would or would not do for an audio system unless someone told him. He had no hands on experience evidently and admitted by him, he has no audio gear other than the factory radio which came in his Lexus.
You've been asked if you believe Nano-Flo Chris has been forthright. You have danced around the answer. You've been asked if you believe the power cord claims to be accurate. You have danced around the answer.
Chris posted a quick fly-by comment that resembles someone off their meds. He hasn't answered valid questions for measured efficacy, something he committed to do, about the power cord and as I mentioned earlier in the thread, what little credibility he had as a non-known entity hasn't received any objective boost by his behavior and avoidance of the questions.
He may be sitting on the edge of a swing bridge somewhere, comfortable in the fact that he doesn't owe me or anyone else any explanation or data about anything. He would be correct in that conclusion. I believe he is here on Audiogon having joined in just the last several days, trying to earn a fast-buck on unsubstantiated assertions. I don't take issue with someone who buys the power cord or the "contact enhancer" or even the off the shelf fuses smeared with the gel. Its all good. In fact, he at least seems to be learning from this demolition derby exercise: the reason he will remove the gel from the market probably has more to do with the fact that some are prepared to pay considerable sums for a treated fuse with less pushback than selling enough gel to treat a case of fuses. I also predict version 3.0 of the power cord will be out before he has shipped version 1 or version 2 to any actual paying customers. |
