Guest francis woo Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 Susan Wong was singing Close to You last night in my living room. I felt the warm and engaging delivery of her voice and felt very relax. I put on the Marigo (which I brought back on Saturday) and suddenly, she was right there in front of me, her voice so vivid, clear and focus that made sat up and take notice of the ambiance. This is one tweak that I am very happy to part my money on and would certainly recommend to all to give it a listen...... :)
FookLai Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 This one? How much you bought it and from where? Fook Lai
Guest francis woo Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 I got 3 pieces from Hong Kong. One collected already and another one waiting for another forumer to contact me. It cost me S$270.00. You can get it at MusicLink though at $330.00.
DanDon Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 Is there a difference between 3D and signature? Or they are the same mat?
benzx Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 Mine's only the normal green series II cd mat and I'm already very happy with the results. Have to thank Ical for introducing this thing to me. So far, amongst all the changes I did to my system this year, (a DAC, a few powercords, soundcare superspikes, TAOC spikes, Interconnects, digital cable), I have to say this marigo product is the tweak of the year for me. :)
Guest francis woo Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 Dan, there is a 3D series 2 (first version coated in green and black surfaces) and the Signature (latest version) which is coated in gold and green surfaces.

As for me, I did mention in a another thread that I got the signature mat much earlier on, and though it did make a difference to the sound, it did not make my setup sound better than it already did. So it's either I 'sway', or my room tuning with revolution boards and other stuff is already sufficient before applying the mat... I bought it at Musiclink when I could hear audible 'good' improvements there at the showroom...wish it made such differences to my system.. So I guess if anyone has already properly tuned/treated their rooms, the mat may or may not make a significant improvement, ymmv.
stanly Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 Bought the signature.....never look back.....it's that good.... ;D

Heng Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 Glad u finally took it, its damn siok stuff!!! ;D Picked up my marigo mat from bro francis yesterday... ;D Only had time to play a few tracks with it but initial impression is that vocal is indeed more life-like & focused (like what francis described)... Also, noticed there's improved separation in the music as I can now make out individual instruments played much more clearly than before... ;D Happy with it! Thanks bro francis! ;D
domho8 Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 I was at Francis place and he demoed the Signature Mat. I was like WTF!!!!! To me the obvious improvement was soundstaging, the singer Mouth open wider!!! ;D

To me the obvious improvement was soundstaging, the singer Mouth open wider!!! ;D Last night played Do As Infinity's strings orchestra mix of "Yesterday & Today" from the album New World. With the mat, the orchestra behind Tomiko's voice suddenly become very lush sounding with a huge 3-D spatial effect. Really impressed as it was not subtle even with my untrained ears... :P

Guest francis woo Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 Darth Bro, you are welcomed to my place anytime. Like I said before, this tweak is worth paying for and I personally think those who yearn for improvement in their sound systems shud get one.
