Some tweaks make the sound bigger, and some make it finer. The E-Pad Matrix Gold is the fine one: a small self-adhesive pad that SteinMusic says brings sonic finesse, with clear, fully discernible detail and unfiltered overtones. It works on audio equipment, and it works on instruments too.
A little pad for a lot of finesse.
The Design
SteinMusic describes its E-Pads as high-end audio accessories that optimize the sound of equipment through molecular coherence enhancement. Each pad measures about 10 x 15 mm and is self-adhesive, so you can apply it easily to different surfaces and components. The pads act on the vibration and resonance behavior of the surface they sit on. The range includes the E-Pad +S and the Matrix Copper, Silver, and Gold versions.
What You Hear
According to SteinMusic, the Matrix Gold version stands out for sonic finesse more than for sheer effect strength. The Matrix E-Pads deliver crystal-clear, fully discernible details and undistorted, unfiltered overtones and nuances with a presence SteinMusic calls previously unimaginable. You can use them on musical instruments, such as guitars, violins, cellos, and grand pianos.
SteinMusic offers two studio recordings of a Fazioli concert grand piano, one with an E-Pad Matrix Gold on the soundboard and one without, so you can hear the difference yourself. Listen to the Fazioli recordings SteinMusic also shows violinist Elena Denisova, solo violinist at the New Year's concert in Shanghai, playing an old Italian violin with one of its E-Pads on the bridge.
Where It Fits
Use the Matrix Gold when you're chasing refinement: on audio components, or on a favorite instrument. The E-Pad +S is the entry point to the range, and the Matrix Silver sits alongside the Gold. We're happy to help you choose a pad and decide where to place it.
