I have written the same review article before, but this is an updated version of the previous one.
There are different types of marble exactly, and the previous one is an artificial marble made of polyester, an inexpensive material.
This one also has a good sound, but a better sound is the artificial marble made of Corian material.
However, the price difference between polyester and Corian material is very large, but it is at a level that can be paid for the purpose of buying a general insulator.
I immediately purchased one myself to check the sound, and first of all, without a doubt, the sound is “good”.
The sound is better than ever just by changing from polyester to Corian material.
I think it far surpasses the poor, expensive insulators, so let’s quit wasting our money on stupid, occult products now.
In the meantime, we also recommend the use of non-slip sheets as another update.
Since the flatness is not perfect by any means, the non-slip sheet fills in the unevenness and makes the foundation firm, thereby improving the sound.
This is a product that does not cost more than 1,000 yen, but beware that there are products that are made by OEMs and sold at high prices. They are rip-offs.
I actually bought one of these for audio use a long time ago and have it, which I introduced on Twitter. It feels almost the same.
I have found that the non-slip sheet actually increases the bass and power of the sound.
I heard that there are many counterfeit Corian artificial marble products on the market, so be careful when you buy one.
The material is not sold to the general public, so buy from a seller who presents that it came from a building contractor.
There has long been a genre of “occult products” in audio, products that are now at the level of religious believers.
There are products that cost several thousand yen for the cheapest and several million yen for the most expensive. What is the reason for such a large amount of money for the same product?
There is no concrete proof of the effectiveness of these products, and all the information is based on personal subjectivity and stealth.
In the end, even if you do research, you will not be able to reach the real information.
As a result, it is an area where you can only find out by testing and checking for yourself.
Because it is a field where you cannot tell whether it is true or false, those who do not have information turn into good gold-diggers.
To be precise, it will be artificial marble, but we recommend this one because it has surprisingly good sound.
If you buy it by the piece, 110 yen per piece, buy as many pieces of this as you can put on your speakers and use them.
Of course, it is not a deal or nothing.
Originally, I used Resoling for drums, as you can see in the past articles, but I learned about marble as an insulator with good sound, so I used it this time and decided to continue using it as it is because the sound quality is quite good.
It is a marble, but it is “balanced” in terms of sound.
There is no weird bias, so there is no impression of leaning toward the low frequency range or the high frequency range.
The sound may be tight, but it is not harsh.
The sound separation will be better, so it should be easier to see the sound of the instruments than in the original state.
The sound separation will also improve, so the sound is definitely better, first of all, as a material that can be bought for 110 yen.
And as for insulators, a set of insulators should cost about 3,000 yen at the cheapest, so it is definitely the best sounding material in terms of price.
However, this kind of information is not available even if you look for it.
I bought some myself based on information from a customer who is an audio expert, and I tried it out, but I can recommend it to others without a doubt.
I don’t think it costs that much money to improve the sound.
If you take the necessary measures, the efficiency of sound improvement will definitely increase.
Rather than buying strange materials with unknown effects and trying them out, “soundproofing the room” and “grounding the room” are the most effective first.
Even expensive speakers will sound bad if played in a room with poor sound quality.
Next, I think it is important to “avoid using famous products.
Famous does not mean good. It may be more correct to say that they are made famous in order to sell well.
It is the same as with health: “You will be healthier if you don’t eat strange food. What to eat? The more basic principle is to quit eating strange things.
Cables should be made by Mogami, and power cables are fine with non-plated cables that can be bought for 2000-3000 yen.
If you can afford to buy something expensive, it would be a power transformer. This should also be from a company such as Suzukid.
Many power transformers are probably OEM products of Tin-Kid and others.
Spend your money on the right parts of your audio system, and don’t spend it on unnecessary things.
Buy something better for your money.
Please note that “good” does not mean “famous”, “used by famous people”, or “expensive”.
Mogami products have long been a standard cable manufacturer in the low price range with good sound quality, so those who know what they are doing will first choose Mogami products.
The reason is clear: when you compare the price of Mogami’s products with those of other manufacturers, “other manufacturers’ products are too expensive.
If they were only expensive, it would be fine, but the sound quality is not good either, so there is no merit in trying hard to buy them.
However, this is also a gaping industry, especially in the musical instrument industry, where there are more occultists than in the audio occult, and the percentage of occultists seems to be very high.
Many people are easily deceived, and the quality of the buyers is very poor.
Some people buy because the product is from a well-known manufacturer, others assume that because the product is expensive, it must be good. or those who take it seriously because “famous people rave about it and use it.
People who usually don’t think, research, or study are good moneymakers.
If you are going to start a business just to make money, you might as well do it for these people.
People who tell the truth have existed for a long time before me, but many people did not believe them.
That is why they are easy to deceive. If you do a little research, you will find products that somehow sell well even though they sell contradictory effects.
The cause of this environment is completely the fault of the consumer side, so you have to investigate, study, and confirm for yourself who is saying the right things. You need to advance to the stage of “who is telling the right thing?
Price and performance definitely go hand in hand for Mogami products.
I recommend the 2497, which I also use and rave about for indoor use, and the 3368 for live performances.
Cables are “consumables” and should not be considered as something you can buy once and use forever.
They will deteriorate and the sound will deteriorate.
It is normal to replace them after 3 to 5 years depending on the frequency of use.
Considering these factors, expensive cables are very cost-effective when you think about replacing them on a regular basis.
In addition, if the sound is not good, it is even worse.
Mogami cables sound great and are inexpensive, so they make a lot of sense as a consumable.
FP703 is important for the plug.
It is expensive, but this is the best one using various plugs.
Vintage solders, famous solders, solders from individuals who seem famous….
I am sorry, but I don’t think there are any decent products that sell solder performance.
I have actually used and tried many different kinds of solder, but first of all, the sound is not good.
The sound changes, but usually some bandwidth is cut off, so the sound changes for the worse.
And yet the price per meter is too high.
If that is the case, there is no merit in buying cheap solder because it has better performance.
Since there are few factors that affect the sound of cheap solder, the fact that the sound changes for the worse itself proves that it is a bad product.
In the first place, we have to consider that “soldering technique” is the other factor that affects the sound.
Please do not think that you can assemble a product with 100% performance by working with a good product while your soldering technique is poor.
Correct assembly is a prerequisite before knowledge.
As a result of many trials, the only solder with good sound is platinum solder.
If you have any other solder, please replace it with this one and use this solder for production from now on.
If you still have any sense of decency, you will understand why I am saying this.
This is the only really good solder I know of that costs a lot of money.
Many are brainwashed and cannot make the right decision.
Since I am speaking on that basis, I write articles and transmit them on Youtube as a treatment for those who read and watch.
It’s your choice whether you see it or not, or believe it or not. Please believe from here! Please believe us! I am not sending out messages with the stance of “Please believe me!
I don’t treat the people who watch Youtube or read my blog posts as my customers.
If you don’t believe in the information that we have provided, please continue to be exploited.
The concept of “sound good” is also very well done, and it is a very efficient business because you start from a place where the original is not good, so you can have many means of doing business by making subtle changes.
People without knowledge will be a sucker who keeps buying and replacing products because they cannot see the goal.
And since people are emotional, they can be led to change their tastes and buy new products by giving them strange information and leading them astray.
Start with the good stuff.
Keep in mind that “good” does not mean “famous,” “celebrity,” or “expensive.
Most of them are minor manufacturers that are not well known to the general public.
For indoor use only, 2497 is fine. I have replaced all the wiring around me with 2497 from the moment I learned about this cable.
However, this cable has durability problems, so it is not suitable for basically moving environments.
That is where 3368 comes in. This is enough cable to take outside.
It is the right way to spend your money.
As mentioned above, it is up to each of you to decide whether you believe in it or not.
However, please decide the answer after using it yourself.
If you don’t, you won’t grow as a person.
That is why you continue to be deceived and exploited.
Please just remember that it is unforgivable to me that we are in an environment where “manufacturers who are doing their best to make good products are being ruined” because many people are buying products that are not good for them in the advertising business as a result.
It is fine for a manufacturer who sells a good product to go bankrupt.
However, if a manufacturer of a good product goes bankrupt, that is not good for me either.
It may be self-centered, but if Mogami went out of business, I would say, “What are you guys doing? They went out of business because you guys didn’t buy their products! Buy the good stuff, you idiots! Why don’t you get it? It’s your fault!” I would say clearly.
To be in the right environment, we need to raise the level of knowledge of consumers.
Otherwise, “cheaters will gain. A society where serious people lose out” will be the result for a long time to come.
Please really graduate from being weak-minded. Please study.
To be frank, people who don’t study and are weak-minded are also criminals who cause trouble for others.
It is also a criminal act that causes trouble to others, because it results in buying bad products, growing bad companies, and increasing the number of victims.
Consumers are responsible for their own actions. Please use your time and study to really change the world for the better.
As in any industry, there are those who believe in “occult” theories and conspiracy theorists who believe in them.
It is perfectly fine if they are just thinking, but when they find someone who is different from them on social networking sites, they attack them, which is very troublesome.
This area is similar to the “displacement mount” in the motorcycle industry. Another example is “Uncle Harley is good”.
I don’t understand what they are basing their greatness on.
These elements are the characteristics of “people who don’t study”.
Naturally, information evolves and is updated on a daily basis.
In the past, “this was the right thing to do” and “it was done”, so the answer may not be the same now.
There is no such thing as the same thing today as there was in the past.
To begin with, the world revolves around business and interests.
Information that is convenient for the general public and consumers is not available.
If you want to know the correct information, you have to go and check what is happening on the ground.
Then it is more accurate to find the answers to the information by comparing what was said with what is actually happening.
Most of the time, what was said and what is actually happening are different.
In my mind, I define “stupid” as someone who doesn’t have that idea, doesn’t think, doesn’t try to know, doesn’t actually act to confirm, and attacks others in spite of their ignorance.
Please note that I am not saying this to everyone who is serious and watching, so listeners beware.
I am just saying what I really mean.
It is normal to be ignorant unless you are an expert.
However, in this day and age, when experts are disseminating information in depth and can be accessed for free, if you spend a little time and work hard, you can certainly acquire more knowledge than most people.
Yet, it is one of the acts of a fool to mount up with only one’s own knowledge without studying.
Spend your time studying. You will benefit from the results.
Loose strings? Do you loosen them or not?
This is something I have been sending out for a long time, so check my past blogs and YouTube.
The answer is “the majority of the time it is better to loosen the strings.” The correct answer is to check the amount of truss rod left after the strings are properly adjusted and decide whether or not to loosen them.
Do not ask a repairman to do the job if he says “it is OK to leave it taut” without any evidence of this. That person is an amateur.
If it is hung on the wall, the neck warp will be fixed.
It will not.
If the neck is soft enough to be fixed by this, you would think that if the strings are left taut, the tension of the strings would cause the neck to warp in the forward direction.
If the strings were left loose and hung, it would make more sense, but this is a story about a mysterious person who thinks that “leaving the strings taut is fine and hanging them will fix the warp. There are so many enigmatic people who think that “leaving the strings taut and hanging them up fixes the warping”.
String tension is a much stronger load than the weight of the body.
Vintage guitars sound good.
This is also a business term involving business.
It is true that some of them sound good, but certainly “not all of them” is correct.
And of course, many of them are in poor condition because they are old.
However, dealers often do not give such explanations and sell guitars with the full intention of showing that they are valuable.
There are many people who buy guitars without knowing it and end up crying because they can’t use it as a guitar.
If you are buying a guitar for the purpose of resale and selling it in the future, it may be fine, but if you are considering using it as a tool, it is very important to judge its condition.
There are also many fakes, so purchasing one itself is also risky.
The more you play it, the better it will sound.
This is true, but I don’t know the specific reason.
Strings become new when boiled.
Old strings can be boiled to make them sound a little better, but there is honestly no benefit to this labor.
It takes a lot of time and effort, so it is better to replace them with new strings in a straightforward manner.
Put the screws back in their original positions.
Someone has come up with something weird again.
It comes up often. “I’m different from the others, I’m working hard on these things. Isn’t that great?” and mounts them.
They try to show their superiority to ignorant people by appropriating knowledge from other industries.
For example, if the length of a screw is different from the original length, it is natural to put it back in its original position. But this is normal without being told.
If a screw of a different thickness is used, this is also a matter of course without being told.
It is also common practice to turn a wood screw in the direction to loosen it and turn it from the point where the threads meet, etc., so we do not need to explain every time.
If the wrong screws are used by mistake or used screws are mixed due to amateur work, you need to ask a repairman to fix them as soon as you find out who used them.
And as I say in the video, if you are talking about the same screws under other conditions, it is “not important”.
This is the same theory as “try it yourself,” but if the sound changes after replacing the screws, it’s fine, but it won’t. If it does change, it’s because the screws are too tight or not tight enough.
If it does change, it is more likely to be due to over-tightening or improper tightening order.
The same thing is true in the knowledge of automobile maintenance, but even thick metal can be distorted, so there is a fixed value for the tightening order and force.
You can see that the act of attaching parts is quite important in these relationships, but it may be difficult to feel the great benefit with a guitar or so.
The larger and more demanding the operation, the more you will feel the small changes.
In the case of guitars, it’s not worth it to go to all this trouble for a place that doesn’t have a high load or a high temperature. It’s just a story of “What’s the use of such a small thing?
Instead, it’s more like, “There are more important things to worry about.” I’m talking about that.
Solder changes the sound.
It changes, but generally the sound is not good.
This is another business term. It’s the psychology of wanting something unknown with high expectations.
And the misconception of knowing the sound is that if the sound gets better, it means “something is going to get worse.
In the end, there is an imbalance.
It is basically impossible for everything to get better.
If these areas become the sound you like, it is a good result, but did you aim for it? Was it done by accident? The story is totally different depending on whether it was done by accident or by design.
I define it as an occult product because of its high price and lack of significant effect.
There are cheap solders around that don’t change the sound, and these are the best ones.
This is the same as the audio occult.
~Finally~.
I can tell you rightly and clearly that you should not believe the information you see, but rather take the option of “hold off until you try it out and see for yourself”.
This is true for everything, not just instruments.
Brainwashing is very strong in everyone.
Famous people advertise, media and companies advertise and market their products as if they are great, but it is never a definite factor.
It is all up to you to decide.
The question that one must ask oneself is “Is this really the answer that I have come up with? Is this really a placebo effect of the information? If you do not analyze things calmly, you will be influenced by emotions and atmosphere and make a wrong decision.
Who do you get information from? Please think carefully about whose information you are going to spread around and act accordingly.
