Improve the Pace of your amplifiers
« on: January 19, 2017, 11:53:19 AM »

If you want to improve the "pace" of your amplifiers, for the low price of $900, try these.

Sadly they will only work on amps that have binding posts :'( :'( :'( :'(

I'll sell you a Speak-on version for $1,500 Ivan!

Well if you don't have amps with binding posts then you obviously know nothing about audio and how it works, and therefore you are unqualified to debunk these supposed snake oil products that actually really work.

Using Speak-On or EP4 connectors forces the audio to be squashed into one connector reducing the quality and frequency range of the audio, using a pair of binding posts frees the audio lines and lets the audio 'breathe' significantly increases the quality and tonality of the music.

For those who have multipin connectors the DGL Super Natural Audio Komponents Europe Online Imperfection Limiter can help to separate the audio lines thus improving the audio and is a special deal at only $10,000. Remember the quality of your audio matters and spending any less than $50,000 for something so important is madness.

"Pace" is a real thing.  You would refer to it as time alignment.  The initial transient of all frequency components of a sound being aligned in time.  The term mostly comes from consumer reflex boxes that rely on the port for a great deal of their output and the time difference between the attack of something like a kick drum or string bass coming though the midrange and the slow bloated resonance of the bass bandpass.  One reason why most audiophile speakers are sealed alignments.  It's easier to get time alignment, or to use a fancy term: spectral coherence, than with a ported box.

Reducing EMI with portions of capacitors hanging off terminations and in the air is dubious at best.

The best tweaks are simply doing something well.  Solid connections, sufficient current capacity, minimizing parasitics and resonances, and so on.  You'd be amazed what a little duct seal on a tonearm damping resonances can do.  Unfortunately you can't repackage it for thousands.

Well, you need two sets so it will cost you $1.800. But still cheaper than the $5.500 alternative...

My favorite were the Shun Mook ebony hockey pucks.  Now it might be that the resonance point of ebony might be sufficiently different than the base of a turntable's that it may provide some damping.  But people would put these things resting all over the place.  There was one reviewer who would go through a lengthy description of just where he put them around various pieces of equipment, even including the rotational angle, as part of a review.

I found that a 12" bicycle inner tube inflated slightly did a perfectly fine job of isolation.

Don't forget to add a couple of meters of https://www.tweekgeek.com/wireworld-platinum-eclipse-7-speaker at a bargin of $16.400 per meter.

Since I use active speakers I only need 0.3 meters or so for each speaker replacing the internal cable.

I'm off to the hardware store to buy some dowel rod and wood stain!
