| Why Power Cables Affect Sound Cogito, you mean there are only two considerations that apply to YOU......For many of us, to ask if good AC cords make a difference would be too embarrassing--like asking if sleeping on a good mattress or driving on good tires really makes a diffe... | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound No EE here, but my trial-and-error experience has shown me that a large isolation transformer helps deliver a quality energy supply, and then differences in AC cords have been easily heard. For a larger system, a 240V/120V transformer puts things... | |
| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat Bob James' '78 classic, "Touchdown" just became three dimensional on red book. It was good before Omega E mats--now it comes right out into the room. | |
| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat As the Omega mats continue to refine the sound, I cannot find a CD I don't like. New sounds are appearing for the first time, like stars in the night sky, previously hidden by city lights. There's a Milky Way of sound density being revealed, free... | |
| The awakening... I can see the beginning of an Audiophiles Anonymous forum. | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound No, the AC cord does not carry the audio signal, but it does carry the electrical energy upon which the audio signal is delivered throughout the system and to the speakers. How free of noise and distortion for the audio signal is that energy? It i... | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound I've built my AC cords using Furutech Ohno Continuous Cast copper--much better sound clarity over tough pitch copper. Your signal needs a smooth, quiet pathway to travel in. No grain boundaries in OCC metal--less distortion. You must also address... | |
| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat Not listening, but working, the past four days--the new Omega mats have further linked with the components. Al Stewart's "Modern Times" and "Year of the Cat", both lush productions by Alan Parsons, including orchestral arrangements, are velvety s... | |
| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat Geez, looks like I missed all the action here---was up late, listening to older music, hearing "Abbey Road" and "Seventh Sojourn" through the new E mats. The Beatles CD reissues from ’09 are definitive, and the Moodies reissues, overseen by Justin... | |
| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat I looked at the AMD website. I am beyond wall-plug filters---don't like 'em for what I have--thanks, though, | |
| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat "First you think you are ’there’, and wonder how your system can sound any better." sgordon1How many times I have thought that--must be twenty or more. The beauty of the Omega E-mats is that, after all the gear changes and tweaks, my system has ne... | |
| How important is it for you to attain a holographic image? "A low noise floor is required for holographic imaging. This improves dynamics, transparency, depth." LowriderYes, lowering the noise floor brings forth more bottom end, wider soundstage and more inner detail---a lot more, and in layers not hea... | |
| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat Eddy, I was also so satisfied with my SR Blues and other tweaks, I did not make the jump to TC for some time. Like other products, I made my decision on the positive reports that kept coming in. | |
| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat Continuing from above: It can be said, "Well, we've always known EMI can be a problem." However, has anyone else shown to the degree of this effectiveness--at the level of the end user--just how much of a problem EMI really is? If so, I have no... | |
| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat Thanks for your positive report, mac---glad you have "seen the light". As you connect up your new components, paste all those connections with your TC, re-place mat and cards, sit back and listen for the accumulative improvements over weeks. I h... |
