“My initial impression was that the Serene Matt & Stabilise have similar effect – removing smear increasing solidity and depth and operation of musical threads – while preserving the coherence / whole. If you get my meaning. The combination of Matt / Stabiliser really moved the needle.

In isolation I preferred the Stabiliser / Felt Matt combination to the Serene Matt only. But without the Stabiliser – the Serene matt is clearly better than the felt matt. VTA was not optimised – but the effects were never-the-less quite clear I expect every better performance once I’ve tuned my system.up.”
