Ah yes, our old friend Patrick82. He's well known on Head-Fi, where his antics have been celebrated for years.
I remember some time ago he was cutting up Valhalla power cables and subletting small strips for all conceivable purposes. He also applied ERS paper to every conceivable surface, and went through a brief phase of placing heavy books on everything for better sound.
In the end, he ended up with nothing but an E-MU 0404 and an army of tweaks.
What a hoot!
