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.

@nano-flo You will pay one day. And I think it will be sooner than later.

God frowns on predators and that is what you are.

Eye for an eye.

Enjoy the lake of fire. 

 

This guy is saturated with bad karma. With his demeanor and dishonest business practices he will never be a success, neither professionally nor personally.

Indeed, a sad way to live your life.

All of us in this community are just trying to help you get your money back while also trying sincerely to help other would be victims of @nano-flo to avoid the same fate that you are wading through. With that said, are you following the EBAY and Paypal rules and are you communicating with Chris directly or through EBAY’s messaging system?

 

In either case, I’m disappointed that you just turned a simple and clear cut breach of contract issue between you, Chris and Ebay into a NEW negotiation between you and Chris. You do realize that’s what you just did right? If Chris accepts, especially if you communicated with him outside the EBAY messaging system then EBAY can just wash their hands of your issue. Did you place a time limit for Chris to respond or did you leave it open ended? No big deal to me because, if you recall earlier in this thread, several of us turned down the offer of a free cable from Chris/Nanofflo. That showed our commitment to your cause and our commitment to integrity and character. I want nothing to do with him or his questionable products/reputation.

 

I’ve been happy to assist by posting at least daily about @nano-flo ’s misdeeds as well as to sound the alarm about Chris and his inability to keep his word. My commitment to do so was open ended. Respectfully though, I have absolutely no desire to help you negotiate a new deal. I was posting because you seemed to need help because you had been taken advantage of. I also find it very poor form to offer him positive feedback, especially to someone so ill deserving of same, in exchange for him doing a new deal with you. Chris deserves negative feedback but if you were to ever post something positive about your dealings with him because you had received something less than you paid for but for less than what you were promised, then you would be willingly perpetuating his dishonest behavior. Someone could get burned down the road and you would have perhaps made it possible. All we have to rely on is honest and forthright feedback.

 

I wish you well @glory and while I can’t speak for others like @jerryg123 ​​​@thecarpathian @nonoise @agisthos @thyname @holmz , I don’t think I will be assisting any longer. I do reserve the right the slam @nano-flo should he crawl out from wherever he’s been hiding.

@ghasley , +1.

I would have gone the official route strictly through PP and eBay.  His actions already established there will be no compromise. Best of luck to you as you are a good man, but that was a misguided thing to do.
