@thecarpathian, The men don't know, but the little girls understand! Sound a little like a hater carp, down on joe and any differing outlook.
New Omega E Mat from Perfect Path Technologies
Many of you own or have read of the highly-regarded PPT Omega E Mat, one of Tim Mrock’s revolutionary signal-enhancing accessories. Just prior to his untimely passing, Tim had finished developing a new generation of his Omega mat, soon to be available. Krissy Mrock has asked a few of us to introduce this new mat, here given the working title of The Double Omega.
In distinguishing the Double Omega, we know the original Omega, herein called the single, as a 7.5” by 10”, rather heavy and somewhat pliable mat, a bit more than 1/8” thick and with a vinyl-like feel. One face is glossy white, displaying the PPT logo and Omega name, while the other is black, smooth and magnetized. Sandwiched between these faces is the active material that causes components to reject the EMI that saturates everything in our surroundings. The Double Omega is much the same, with one important difference: the magnetized face has the finely-textured feel of around, say, 220-grit sandpaper. This texture, it is presumed, comprises yet a second active layer of EMI rejection. Presumed—because working details of the Double Omega are not well understood—better yet to know how to apply it.
With the understanding that the single Omega E mats generate field effects from both faces, mats have typically been placed under and over components and vertically over circuit breakers. How you apply the Double Omega will depend on best use and experimentation. In my case, I have removed two single mats, lying side-by-side, from the top of my large Wadia CDP and have replaced those with two Double Omegas. The Wadia is a one-box player that contains a pre-amp, so I wanted that second, strong field effect exerting downward as well as upward. I also have several singles placed underneath, just as before. Going straight to amps, this player is my only source, so I want it fully protected from EMI. Your priorities will differ.
As of this writing, I am only thirty-hours in on placing these Double Omegas, and I can already tell you they are powerful in their prevention of EMI within my digital source. Yet another veil has been lifted—all instruments and voices are even more sorted out in the aural space with new information heard within that space. There is much more decay heard against a new silence behind and between the musicians. I am already so pleased and excited about what the Double Omega E mats are doing. As Krissy told me, Tim was really stoked to have these new mats available. Rather than wait for the the fourteen-day window of improvement, I want to get this intro out so others can relay their experiences sooner.

Hey were you one of those that had some bybee iQSE's in your system that interacted with Omega mats. I am going to copy and paste something written earlier to this, thanks marc I had not tried any PPT products when Tim passed. I saw one of the Omega mats at Tweek Geek at a big discount and put it in the stereo breaker box and got mixed results. I read where some of you said the bybee iQSE clashed with the Omega mat. I had 2 left in breaker box with the mat so i took those out and put those 1 each on the back of my 2 JL113 subwoofers and got some very substantial improvements. The mat by itself in the box was better, especially over time when it seems to settle in. The bybees on back of subs allowed me to lower bass volume per knob while improving clarity and punch in a stereo already with major jump factor.
The Omega mat seems to have made the music more tightly connected with some added detail,improved timing and flow which give added realism that was not expected. When the mat is not near the iQSEs both benefit stereo in different ways for me. I plan to take out one day just to double check but another shocker for me in the land of tweakdom! Are any of you using both but just not next to each other Thanks,marc

@rsf507 That is indeed sad. Cry me a River! |
The original betrayal is where the romance was slayed. Obvious to any romantic. Listen close towards the end he asks her to cry a river for him "because I cried a river for you!" If Joe is a real romantic believe me he would take her back, if it hurt that much. PS You act like that was the one and only original meaning, right when English was created. Like I said my friend,think i got you pegged dead on. Much safer, but mama, that's where the fun is! |
@pesky_wabbit Now there is a romantic, you dig where i am coming from! Joe's emotion is boundless, not 1 iota of cold-hearted revenge to be felt or heard from Cocker. @thecarpathian besides see above, it is hard to see romance, but feeling it can last a lifetime. It seems to me a romantic would be less likely to argue against a professed romantic and his or her take on that crazy little thing called love. @mahgister instead of reacting quickly to show how learned you are with words on any subject, slow down and read all relevant threads, smell the roses and,in this case, FEEL the romance if possible is my genetic mode of operation. This fool rushes into situations where wise men are running away from. I do like the thrills too much! Let's enjoy life ASAP and and as soon as possible, thank God for wine, women and song! |
@mahgister Your idiomatic expression did not come before somebody cried a river for someone, that is my point. Feelings mean much more than words to most! |
@mahgister In your own response the words "and for whom you have no sympathy" shows it does not fit the description of my words, as my feelings for oregonpapa are heartfelt and real,a real loss to the community, marc He is gone,damn it, Cry me a river! |
@thecarpathian You are smart. Must be nice thinking you are always right with everything in black and white and no quarter given to a different perspective. I prefer, like joe cocker, to not be pigeon-holed by an idiom, or whatever group of words anyone claims with a one-sided meaning. Cry me a river has,is and will have a different meaning to many, mostly romantics like myself. Ask all your lovers and friends if any concur with me.

@jerrybj @thecarpathian Am am a 69 year old romantic who sees things differently, that"s all. Growing up sounds so boring in your world. If you let harmless distractions drag you down and irritate you to such a degree, it maybe you that needs to reboot. |
