| Preserving the sound of the ultimate audio gear for future generations ... I used to listen to CDs as a convenience, much-preferring vinyl over the shiny discs. Now that the system is tweaked to the heavens and back, CDs are on an equal basis with my vinyl rig as far as sound quality goes. Do they sound the same? Nope. C... | |
| GO PATS! What a defensive game! Even though they lost, you have to hand it to the Rams' defense. Considering how long the Pats held on to the ball and controlled the game, it's a wonder any defensive player for the Rams was still standing. They must have b... | |
| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat So, it’s been a week or so since we pasted connections in the circuit breaker box with Total Contact. My friend Dave came over for a listening session last night. Dave is the audiophile friend who helped me paste the circuit breaker box. There was... | |
| GO PATS! Living in and around the Los Angeles area all of my life, and remembering the greats like Elroy "crazy legs Hirsch", Bob Waterfield, Deacon Dan Towler, Dick Bass ... and all of the other Rams I’ve enjoyed watching all of these years, I have just o... | |
| How important is it for you to attain a holographic image? It seems that the lower the noise floor, the better the 3-D imaging becomes. With proper room treatments and specific tweaks, that noise floor can be reduced way, way, way .... way beyond what we could ever have imagined.Frank | |
| Impressing friends with your rig My audiophile friends love the system. My non-audiophile friends think I’m bat-s*it crazy. My kids and grandkids have removed all doubt .... they know for sure that I'm nutz. Frank | |
| Agon is now a retail outlet. I've bought and sold here on the "Gon" with no problems at all. One slight issue ... I sold an ARC phono stage to a guy. I followed up with a phone call just to make sure he was happy with the purchase. He said that he took the cover off and found... | |

| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat David ... Thanks for the tips on further pasting the circuit breakers. That's our intention when I get more TC. We pasted the circuit breaker box this past Friday afternoon. I got up really early this morning and fired up the system. The improveme... | |
| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat I had about 1/4th of a tube of Total Contact left, so yesterday, I had a friend (fellow audiophile) come over to help me paste my circuit breaker box with "Total Contact." We pasted the mains, the grounds and the breaker that controls the audio sy... | |
| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat Well, the E-Card experiment is working out nicely. Like all of the PPT products, it takes time to reach full potential.As reported above, I put E-Cards inside the equipment on top of the transformers and then also along the sides of the aluminum b... | |
| Hey RICH Audiophiles You mean there IS such a thing as a rich audiophile? If any hobby will make you poor, this is it. Oh, I mean besides chasing women or playing Black Jack. :-)Frank | |
| Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat yobyI very carefully placed Omega E-Cards in certain locations inside the components, like on top of transformers and such. This is easy in my system as I leave the lids off of the components. Then I got the bright idea of putting E-Cards inside o... | |
