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’ve known the “reviewer” and spoken and written to him many times and trusted his take on the product and his take on Nano Flo was very accurate as his findings were the same as mine. I kept three, and returned two and with that we all get to see the Flo’s true character. Altered and extortion, disclaimer on the receipt not to wipe off the group all adds to his broken down character being exposed.I didn’t even know there was goop on the cables when I opened the box and right away like the audio fool I am I applied the black Q45 Rick Schulz goop on the first three. No instruction at all in the box. Zero. Now on his EBay ad he has his disclaimer on no other contact enhancers in your system and if so 100% must be removed Otherwise the warranty and refund are voided.I kept $4.5K of his $25.00 cables and returned 2. I now have 3 cables with no warranty because he didn’t take the time to write out instructions on how to use his product. Glory is still learning about Life and the complications involved in dealing with different types of personalities and this Nano Flo personally here has a name folks use…..
Mind boggling is a great way to sum up this thread 🙈 |
@jerryg123 I hear you…I don’t wonder about the motivations of the proprietor of the shell game (Chris @nano-flo ) but I do wonder about those gathered around, certain they can spot which shell has the pea. @glory and others made an ill advised decision to get in the game. Anyone doing so from here on should have their head examined.
I would sooner trust the Nigerian princess who recently contacted me to assist her collecting 100 bazillion British pounds from her bank, which she has agreed to split with me….I would trust her more than I would trust Chris @nano-flo |
You are too funny @ghasley 🤣

@glory it’s too bad but I have a sincere question for you. You would NEVER do business in this way in any other part of your life so why did you in hifi? Chris is thr proverbial guy in the white van and you didn’t bother researching him further for a $4.5k purchase?
Something is also amiss because if I dispute a charge on my card, it happens instantly. |
