MY Place sbayneI was out of the country for a few weeks and was finally able to sit-down last night for a listen to my system. I'm still very impressed with this fully optimized Tekton/Yamaha combo. Very musical ... posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI recently heard some very expensive systems. These folks gave hi-end dealers a budget and let them do their thing. I'm pretty sure none of the owners frequent Audiogon so I'm going to comment here... posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI've put Perfect Path E-Mats underneath the Yamaha and covered all the open RCA connections with Perfect Path caps. The receiver is now completely engulfed with this technology and the sound I'm ge... posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneThanks David. People say things online to each other they would never say to a person's face because they know its not appropriate. Makes no sense other than for self-edification. posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI'm going to stay off the forums for a while. Seems like most people there just want to show they are better than someone else. There is no real discussion going on. Not worth my time. posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI've come to the conclusion that to get truly high-end sound you must treat the signal, power and acoustics. The components are not nearly as important. Companies like PerfectPath, Synergistic Rese... posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI added Audio Magic silencers/clarifiers and placed on E-Card on top of them. They have only been cooking for a couple days but they sound spectacular together! I admit, I've officially gone tweek ... posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI haven't touched my system for over a week now but did do some extended listening last night. The E-Cards and Total Contact are the real deal. Using just a modest (but well engineered) Yamaha r... posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI placed an E-Card on top of the Kemp QA, the end of my Ethernet cable where it enters the Yamaha and over the speaker binding posts. Its now a couple of days later, and holy crap, the sound has op... posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneAs a number of you have pointed-out, I've been calling PerfectPath Technologies....... Perpetual Technologies. Brain fart, mistake, and apologizes all-around! posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneWow, I posted some reading material over on the Perpetual Technologies thread regarding spintronics (the direction electrons spin around the atom i.e. quantum physics), how it can effect electronic... posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneLast night, I removed a couple of the E-Cards from on top of the Yamaha and placed them directly on the transformer inside. I also applied Total Contact to the ends of the Ethernet cable feeding th... posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI've done a massive update of MY Place system page with current pictures and explanations. (Frankly, I wish more people would have a system page and keep it current. Many times I see people discuss... posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI got home fairly late last night but still got about 45 minutes of listening in (with an aged tequila in hand!) The sound is even more warm with lots of texture. Not sure if its the magnets I adde... posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneMy current thinking is you want to get the electrons spinning as uniformly as possible in the signal passing through your components, cables and speakers. This is explained through quantum physics... posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneSorry Tom, that was definitely a stream of consciousness post. I've moved to a Yamaha R-N803 receiver that I've tricked-out with Total Contact, Synergistic Research Blue fuse, GCTs/ECTs and a doubl... posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI'm doing some major rethinking and reworking of my system. The holiday break was really refreshing (audio wise). posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneHi Tom - yeah I took all the magnet sheets w/ graphene oxide, Tweek Geek Sonic Tonics, High Fidelity MC-0.5s and some DIY Shakti Stones out a couple of days before I started listening with the E Ca... posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI've now doubled-up the E-Cards and heard a nice improvement immediately. Relocated some ECTs and added a Kemp Quantum Approach that I had in another system. Things are really coming together. posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneIt’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... posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneI 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... posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |
MY Place sbayneYep, 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. posted over 6 years ago | View comment | |

MY Place sbayneYeah 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... posted almost 7 years ago | View comment | |
