MY Place sbayneYeah I basically agree with Bill but I would say at least 3 days. If you can wait a week before doing serious listening I would recommend it. Also use as many layers as you can and get EMI inhibito... posted over 7 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneOzzy - Thank you for everything you've done for this audiophile community over the years! To answer your questions.1. I don't think it matters if you cut the mats to the space you... posted over 7 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI think that a SSD will be more than fine with a magnetic field around it. A hard drive or phono cartridge not so much. posted over 7 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneTom - I've got 10 treated magnetic mats on each component. 5 on the top (if possible) and 5 on the bottom. I have a power strip with 4 High Fidelity MC-0.5s plugged-in that has 5 mats under it w... posted over 7 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneTom thanks for the tip. I didn't realize there would be enough magnetic attraction (pull) on the backside to keep them attached to the breaker door. I may try them that way. You've reminded me of s... posted over 7 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI took 5 treated mats and folded them in half so they are essentially 10 layers thick. I put them under my power strip where I have 4 High Fidelity MC-0.5s (see the pic). The sound was immediately ... posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneYeah its really interesting how we can change the sound of our systems with these things. There so many different configurations that are possible! posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneThey are improving with time. Not really sure if it matters to paint both sides. I've gone about this in such a haphazard way that its hard to say what does and does it make a difference. Would alm... posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI started with painting just one side because I thought it would be too messy to do both sides. Later I started painting both sides. At some point, I should probably go through and make sure everyt... posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneHi Tom - Glad you are back! Your feedback got me thinking about my modem/router - I may start messing with that again. I don't think I'm going to move the mats in my stereo for awhile. I've already... posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI let my current configuration of graphene oxide painted on alternate facing magnetic mats sit undisturbed for about 2 weeks. I listened for just over 2 hours last night. I didn't think my syste... posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |

MY Place sbayneTom - how is your system sounding? Have you made any changes recently to the placement or configuration of the mats? Scott posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI did some extended listening today. The sound really is something special. I'm going to leave the magnetic stacks in the alternating configuration (as discussed below) for the next couple of weeks... posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |

MY Place sbayneTonight, I spent a couple of hours listening to a wide variety of music. I must say my system has never sounded so real yet dynamic. Its "right there" type of sound. Not a hint of brightness or exc... posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |

MY Place sbayneSounds good Bill. I’ve been traveling quite a bit lately so my mats were able to sit without me taking a listen for a few days. I’m guessing they went through some ups and downs in the beginning ... posted almost 8 years ago | View comment | |
