Equatorial Audio - Engineering every product for true magnetic neutrality — the foundation of audiophile transparency.

[Sixtyten]

Recently I'd become some what jaded by the sound of my HiFi. So while searching out a potential upgrade path, I spotted Equatorial Audio. Checking their site and learning about their design philosophy, it clicked. I was experiencing the classic symptoms of magnetic resonance interference, exacerbated by Solar Flare activity

So I bought one of their very reasonably priced Power Lock Solar Aware Mains Conditioners. It monitors real-time solar weather data from NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Centre and adjusts its power delivery profile before geomagnetically induced currents reach your equipment. A proprietary magnetic lock system — an array of neodymium N52 magnets positioned around the internal transformer core — dynamically modulates the transformer's coupling coefficient to compensate for external magnetic field variations.

I can't believe the difference. Sibilant tonality from the excellent Metallica album "Death Magnetic" has been significantly reduced.

Someone has made a significant effort to create this site.. It is utterly hysterical. The instruction manuals? Wow. 🤣

I can hear the mods approaching now...

Like you say, an awful lot of effort. I wonder if it isn't just to see how many people can be catfished?

(Does seem just a little obsessive if that's the case, though.)

Oh my aching ribs... 😂

 

[RTHerringbone]

I bet you can almost touch that hemispheric balance! I'm going to buy three, just to be certain.

How does Boards Of Canada sound? 🙂

Oh my giddy aunt!!!!

It reduces the disappointment of "Tomorrow's Harvest" by about 2.7%

Real BoC fans get over that initial disappointment and grow to love the album - you can never really be disappointed with a BoC album (fingers crossed...)

 

[Revolutions]

This is real hum-dinger.

I hope the mugs they trap are named and shamed!

This ↑ belongs in the "Your laugh of the day!" thread.

BTW, I noticed this little disclaimer:

"Fine Print​

• *Results in non-equatorial environments may vary."

And, another amusing paragraph:

"According to recent NOAA data, the magnetic north pole is accelerating its drift from the Canadian Arctic towards Siberia at an unprecedented rate. For audiophiles, this shift introduces subtle yet measurable hemispheric bias into every copper conductor manufactured in the Northern Hemisphere. Audio fidelity is no longer a constant — it is a variable, subject to the wandering magnetism of our planet."

Somebody should remind them, the Earth's magnetic field shifts constantly and, from time to time, completely reverses, so what's happening now, is a very long way from being unprecedented.

Ooooooooooooo VDU screen 🤣


Your Matsui and Saisho signature suggests tongue and cheek, thanks for making me laugh!

Never mind Jesus, I just pissed myself!

Your Matsui and Saisho signature suggests tongue and cheek, thanks for making me laugh!

His postscript, quoted below, suggests the same and is why I 'liked' it.

Surely the whole site is a massive p1sstake - possible for someone's website design project?

Just look at the dealer section - and what they "compensate" for ... fair play, someone has some serious sarcasm onboard.

I would like to think you are right but, we all know Hi-Fi is awash with snake oil merchants.
