Perfect Path Technologies: Omega E mat

Recently a friend was asking me…Is it worth paying $150 for one of those blue fuses?

Now thinking about it, memories are coming back as flashbacks of when I bought my first ‘HI-FI’ stereo system; was 18 years ago when I joined the audiophile world and started this roller coaster ride. Will be almost impossible to remember every piece of equipment I have try or listen to in all these years. Working for an audio retail/importer company designing and installing systems exposed me to some expensive gear, then helping one of the small importers of boutique audio products in the country introduced me to a lot of cool things: valves, fuses, footers, tweaks, etc. Wasn’t to long before I was hook doing DIY, cables, power supplies and modifying, testing and trying anything I could think of...then it came the vinyl addition and so on…

When you really get to play and test a lot of good audio equipment you understand that the small differences/improvements are more related to synergy and placement (room/power) of the components, rather than the equipment by itself. As of today I can not think of any other product than has made such an impact as the TC/e-Mats combination has done to my stereo system…No little or different, the positive impact has been dramatic, and the improvement way beyond any other product I have try until this day.

My sincere recommendation if you want to bring out the best and true potential of what you already own.

Here is the warning that comes with Total Contact. The manufacturer is very active on this thread. Hopefully, if they have anything else to add they will.

IMPORTANT POINTS TO REMEMBER:

Perfect path Technologies Electrical Contact Enhancer is a next generation HIGHLY CONDUCTIVE contact enhancing formulation. If you bridge the gap between Hot (+) and Ground (-) with Total Contact you run the risk of damaging your equipment.

TO USE PAINT A THIN EVEN COAT on the MALE CONTACT SURFACES OR PINS ONLY! NEVER APPLY TOTAL CONTACT TO A FEMALE HOLE on any connector.

TOTAL CONTACT works on a micron level, do NOT OVERAPPLY!

TOTAL CONTACT can be carefully removed by using a clean cotton swab and pipe cleaner dipped in 90% or greater isopropyl rubbing alcohol….making sure Total Contact particles DO NOT get inside your component’s electrical circuitry.

The key is to CAREFULLY apply Total Contact in a VERY thin layer using the brush included in the kit.

Not sure if you've seen or used the product at this point (have you?), but I can assure you that its NOT a liquid that is POURED over the inside of a component with irresponsible abandon. No one is advocating that. 

Thanks for your concern. Much appreciated.

The combination of the Omega E Mat and the Total Contact is the best improvement I've made in over 40 years in the hobby. That includes tons of tweaks in the past. Some had a beneficial effect, some did nothing at all. But the Mats and TC combined? Killer!

Well I let the mat sit another 12 days or so and still was not sure the result was worth the cost of these mats. Then something occurred to me two days ago. ......

Well I had a  revelation.  My Lyngdorf has an Audio Magic Pulse Gen Zx in it.  It blocks EMI and RFI.  Well I understand these devices may restrict the impact of the mat.  I removed it 2 days ago. Well now I like what I am hearing.  The mat had been in my system some 22 days with mixed results until I removed the Audio Magic tweak. As soon as I removed it I was treated with all of the benifits folks have been sharing about on this thread. Music sounds more beautiful than ever in my home. My system sounds more like live music than ever before. As I turn it up the music swells and expands without any sense of being forced or fired at me from the speakers.

Wonder what two would do? 🙂
