I need to buy a matress first, but I don't know which one has the best sound. Is latex good?

As you move into creating a room for your new hobby, you might want to know about the products sold by Aegis. They have a paint additive that creates an effective shield against EMF and RFI, and also a spray on version, and even a laundry additive that you could use on your clothing or bedsheets to shield your body from EMF and RFI.

Here is their website:
Aegis Corporation - Manufacturer Of AegisGuard Radiation Shields And Laser Products

And here is a post on the Audio Asylum about some of my own experiments with their products:

Isolation Ward

These products might allow an easier and cheaper way to shield an entire room than buying enough ERS for wallpaper.
Audiophile laundry additive is a good idea, I also want audiophile soap (listen in the nude) and toothpaste. When you get the eargasm and your mouth is wide open, your teeth will be visible and RFI will enter your body, the audiphile toothpaste will fix that.

I suggest you to add Black tourmalines all over your place, it will absorb all the bad interferences for a cleaner sound and even your health will benefit from it !

I just don't see why you don't post it in the high-end section ?

edit : I also wrapped my monitor and various cable with aluminum foil since long ago, i can take pictures if you want.
My RGC-24 Ground Conditioners have crushed with hammer Tourmaline in them, I love the sound when I shake the jar. I would like Tourmaline dust all over my room!

I have tried many high-end gear including dCS Elgar Plus and dCS Verdi Encore, I came to the conclusion that audio sounds better the lower the wattage is.

I don't have enough Magix to levitate my keyboard too.

I cut up everything because I want to look inside.

If I were you I would buy a real Hästens bed, and not a cheap latex one.
Well dampened, so I suspect it would not impact the sound all that much. Comfortable to sleep in as well..

Man was made to sleep in the forest under a blanket of leaves...For me a Judge power cable is a better investment than that bed.

the bed is the sex and as such will only add to eargasm's and the legs look like very nice vibration control for late nights.

Was man made to sleep with Judge power cable under the blanket of leaves in the forest?

I believe that place was originally reserved for a female. Not under leaves but on top of hay preferably.

In the night sleep in the forest under a blanket of leaves, while in daytime listening to music using a Judge power cable?
That certainly do not sound right to me!

Taking it apart

I removed the ERS Paper foam tubes around laptop's DC cable and it became edgy and bright. Then I removed the books on top of the EMU0404 USB and the difference was much bigger than I thought, it made it sound veiled and open with emphasized midrange, the blackness and micro-details were gone. I continued by removing ERS Paper in my system and it made it sound brighter which gave me a headache. Then I unplugged the RGC-24 Ground Conditioners and I felt physical pain in my ears from the harshness. Then I removed Magix under EMU and T-Amp and I felt sharp pain in my forehead, brightness was crazy.
I removed the Judge power cable + RTP4 strip and it sounded very empty, I quickly put it back. I added a 5meter stock extension strip and it covered up the brightness to make it listenable. I think it's possible to remove ERS Paper and vibration control when getting used to the brightness. In my new apartment I will put power and ground conditioning in the closet with a stock 5m cable coming out of it, everything else will be nude and vibrating.
