It’s nice to be on vacation and spend some time with my system.  I haven’t moved the E-Cards around but I have been tinkering with everything else.  It really is amazing how we can tailor sound wit...

I know you aren't supposed to move the E-Cards around but they definitely sound better in certain areas than in others. Also, they interact with the ECTs I use. I can already tell I need more E-Car...

Yep, I got the E-cards and the Total Contact about a week ago. Probably do some serious listening this weekend. I put them on my amp and over my circuit breaker to my listening room.

Yeah it should be fun! I have a pretty good handle on what my system sounds like with the magnets. I took the magnets out last night so the system can settle before I put the Total Contact and E Ca...

Things have finally calmed down at work and I should have time over the holidays to evaluate the PerfectPath Tech products. So, I ordered a set of Alpha E Cards from PerfectPath and bought some Tot...

I’ve been tinkering with my system lately.  I started to get a little less transparency in the bass and lower mids and the highs didn’t seem as warm. So I put everything back to where I knew I like...

Listened to Daft Punk's RAM on vinyl last night with my son. That last cut is nuts! Literally thought I was going to blow a speaker!

I ended-up taking the MC-0.5, that has Total Contact all-over it, out of my system. Even when used with the SR Tranquility bases it seemed to add a slight haze to the sound. Really weird. I tried n...

I've been busy with work and family matters lately so not much time spent with my system. I did buy a MC-0.5 from another Audiogoner. He had completely covered it with Total Contact.  Its a strange...

You mean "life" isn't all about our sound systems? Ha,ha.  I just want to give the E-Cards a fair shot so I need enough time to do that. I don't want to drop them in my system on Friday and reach a...

I read a news report this morning that scientists recently figured-out how birds detect the earth's magnetic field to navigate. For decades they thought it had something to do with their beaks bein...

Saw your comments on the E-Cards, Bill. I will get a set at some point. I've been gone so much lately I'm going to wait a little bit when I have more time to devote to my system. I certainly respec...

Long story short, over the past weekend, I met a quantum physicist and struck-up a conversation. She was talking about the dual nature of light which has both particle and wave-like properties. App...

I painted all the connections inside my Ground Box, including the copper strips, with graphene oxide. I'm a little surprised at the improvement. Starting to wonder how a completely treated speaker ...

Synergistic Research recently had a special if you bought 3 GCTs you received a Blue fuse free. So now, I have Blue fuses in my amp, music server and preamp and all have GCTs on them. Since its not...

Finally had some downtime this weekend so I listened to most of Bach's St. Mathew Passion directed by Otto Klemperer with the Philharmonia Orchestra and Choir. This was recorded by EMI and one of t...

Ok Bill I may take the plunge  Any theories on how they work? He has made very clear it has nothing to do with a magnetic field.

Bill just saw your comments about the E-mat and how removing the EMI barriers seemed to unleash the magic.  Do you still have any of the magnetic mats we’ve been discussing here in your system?

That's ok. I just think they crossed the line and I had to say something.

Well I guess the seller of Total Contact knows exactly what is going on with people painting inside of power conditioners. Last night on their thread they even explained how to get hex screws out a...

Thanks Bill. It appears the seller's wife is the company rep on those boards now so I'll leave it to her. Hopefully, people will use some common sense. I've talked to a number of people about my tu...

For you Total Contact users who may be reading this. Doesn't the seller claim its very conductive? I haven't been reading those message boards much anymore but the main proponent recently posted...
