Another new sound system

Here's a picture of the stool with all the STB on it, some of which I stripped off the breaker/dimmer boxes

And here's a picture of the slabs of STB I have on the wall plugs at the baclk of the stereo. I took this picture by holding the phone down the back of the wooden sideboard cabinet. You can see the large stack of STB, the Black Wand, and a big sheet of STB.

Have you thought about trying adding your ingredients as the aggregate to mortar and make an actual brick. I've seen weird concrete / mortar with cork shards that have weird aural properties. Or casting it by mixing it into resin? There might be other receptacles for holding the ingredients than painting onto magnetic strips and tape.

Yes, I have Hicksville. The first samples I ever made were mixed into polyurethane resin. At that stage I was trying to make flexible thin sheets, so I wasn't looking at bricks. The polyurethane was very hard to work with for thin sheets, and it's not water soluble, so cleanup is a real problem. Fumes are a problem, and you can't get it on your skin or you'll be sorry.

It would probably be worth trying again, with the idea of pouring it into a mold to make a brick. The latest STB with the magnetic sheets is very powerful, so I would probably want to have the sheets sandwiched in the mold with the resin mixture. That would be good. I can't do that with PVA glue because it would take forever to dry, and shrink and crack as well, but two-part polyurethane resin cures quickly and doesn't shrink or crack.

I don't know if graphene and/or Component "B" would work in resin. That would have to be determined. They probably would.

I recently bought some Flex Paste. That is kind of a flexible mortar, I think. But when I read the hazard warnings on the side of the tub like "may cause fatal organ damage with a single exposure", I put it on the shelf and haven't touched it since. I want the products to be safe for me to make, and for users to handle.

Actual mortar is something I haven't considered. I will look into it. Thanks for the helpful suggestions!

I discovered which pieces of STB were causing the problem with the lights. It was the STB Cass-Blocks I had posted into the empty slot of the Dimmer box. Pity because they have a very good effect on the SQ. For critical listening I can put them in for the session and take them out again later. The lights stay on, or off according to their current setting, but they can't be switched until the Cass-blocks are removed.

It will be more acceptable from an interior design viewpoint when you make powerpoints out of compressed SBT. Make sure you cover all avenues in your patent application, including SBT-coated wiring, and chassis.

Here's a photo of the 3 sheets of P2M XXX (triple X) that I made this morning. To make up for the missing 3 layers, I added a huge amount of graphene and Component B. When I put these 3 sheets on the floor like you see them, the SQ was lifted to an incredible new height. Much higher than the P5 sheets lifted it. However, I have cut up the P5 sheets and they are in use in the system, so it's hardly a fair comparison. anyway, I am certain that the P2M XXX will be as powerful as the P5M. It seems like a LOT of Component B is a VERY good thing!

That reminds me, the sheets are just in from baking in the sun for an hour. It's a very hot day. Once again I am super impressed by leaving the crystals in the sun. But it may be the soft glue allowing the components to operate better, or it may just be a super powerful mixture. Or all 3 factors could be contributing to the incredible SQ.

I'll send you a PM showing exactly what I put in the application. I would put it up here with the regular G45 guys I know who are reading this, but it's a public forum and anyone could be reading.

Something INCREDIBLE just happened.

I decided to move one of the sheets closer to the stereo.

The sound just RE-MIXED itself to a totally different and VASTLY SUPERIOR mix to what I was listening to 5 minutes earlier. It was just like someone moved all the faders on a mix, and brought up instruments that weren't there before, or which were there, but hidden in the mix.

I just don't know what to say. So I'll show you what I did. P2M XXX is truly GODHEAD and the ENDGAME for ALL AUDIO!!!

Discovery of the hour :

You don't need anything in the breaker box or dimmer box. It can all go behind the stereo, concentrated on the outlet feeding the stereo.
This is an option. It works just as well as putting it on or in the breaker box. But this works only in the realm of

MASSIVE STB.

I had to do the experiment because of the way STB is affecting the lighting in the house, due to applying STB to the dimmer boxes.

If it can be done without attaching anything it would be a major advantage, as many people rent and are unable to alter fittings or do not want to because they know they will be moving on. What is required for Massive STB?

Massive STB requires multiple bricks (minimum 10 Cassette sized blocks), or a very large brick of STB, placed as close as possible to the breaker box, dimmer box or wall outlet (or all 3). It might also work close to the amplifier, but I am unable to test that because the amps are built into the Kii speakers. I'm pretty sure it would work. The Massive STB can be placed anywhere where the current which feeds the amps passes.

It can definitely be done without attaching anything. You just need relatively more STB than you would if it was attached. A giant STB brick could be placed on the roof of the house and it would work if it was big enough. A large tissue-box sized brick would be enough if it was placed within 3 feet of the breaker box or wall outlet. There must be an equation which calculates the distance vs. the size of the brick. I'm pretty sure it would be one of Maxwell's equations.

 

[bosshoss]

I think the best places for the STB bricks are places where the power connects from one medium to another. Places like the wall socket. At these connecting points, there is a potential for the AC to form eddy currents (or whatever!) especially if it's a complex connection with crimped multistrand wiring or other screws, nuts, bolts and plates in the power path. All these undesirable (but necessary) components create massive disruption to the free flow of the power, and it's likely that the "eddy currents" are part of the sonic problem caused by wall outlets and fuseboxes. Having the STB in these locations presumably absorbs the EM fields and interference that blasts out in all directions from these connecting points.

All very unscientific and unacceptable to square audio people. But this is what Cranks Corner lives for - it's what we do best, and we're winning.

 

[bosshoss]

Here are 2 examples of Massive STB. First are the Cass-Blocks which will be sent out on Monday. Second is a stack of P2S (left) and P5S (right). The P2S is considerably more powerful than the P5M stack, even though it's smaller.

Mark I have been reading all of the great "wizardry" you are producing. I have to admit that some of it sounds too complex to my simple mind. I live in an old building with simple electric circuits, most of the outlets not even grounded. I have grounded my music components myself and it did reduce some of the "white" noise.
Now my question is this, if I turn up my volume pretty loud without playing anything I can hear a hiss and buzz, do you think your invention could help reduce or even eliminate that unwanted noise.
I hope my explanation makes some sense.
And of course a big tip of the hat to you for all the amazing things you're doing

 

[bosshoss]

Hi Jim
It could help reduce the noise, but I doubt if it would eliminate it. Would you like to give it a try? I predict other benefits would outweigh the noise reduction.

Oh yeah would I love to give it a try!
What is better starting at the ciruit breaker or just at the stereo mains outlet?
Thanks and all the best to you, we are not worthy

The Platinum Pack will be a full treatment of breaker box, cables, AC wall outlets, and internal fuses. I advise starting with the wall outlet, becausse it's a very easy place to start and will definitely make an immediate difference that you'll hear. After you know what to listen for, try the breaker box, then the cables (especially the cable termination plugs), and lastly the fuses in amplifiers, pre-amps etc.

Jim - please PM your mailing address. The packs are going out on Monday. Anyone else who would like to receive a Platinum Pack, please PM your mailing address before Monday.

I made about 10 metres of hi-B P2M XXX today, and rolled it into a big roll. I put it under the stereo, and it sounds incredible as expected. But none of the lights work in the house any more. I have to put the roll outside in the garden before the lights will work. This would only affect Massive STB installations with dimmer automation. Standard lighting would not be affected, and it shoudn't affect automated systems unless you install ridiculous levels of Massive STB like I have.

I should note that there is absolutely no STB on or near the breaker box or dimmer box. I removed all of it. The P2M XXX roll is stopping all the lights in the house from working simply by being placed too close to the AC wall outlet near the stereo.

What it does to the electrical circuits of the human brain, I can't even imagine.
