I’m pleased to see that someone is looking into this area.
Being "old school" I’ve always looked sideways at claims made by Monster and everyone that piled on afterwards.
"Oh please, You’ll claim anything to part folks with their cash"
That original attitude of mine has given way over the years to at least listening, if not always agreeing, with claims made.
When I saw dual RCA’s hit the market at $100 or more I cringed....but they were, at least, made of better stuff than the Radio Shack equivalents.
Still, seeing 6’ HDMI jumpers lister for $6,999.00 does little to make the point that they’re doing anything useful for the end buyer.....
That’s simple greed (It has to be....Right?’)
I found an AVS-2000 voltage stabilizer in the electronics trailer at our town landfill a few months back. ....thought I was going to give myself a hernia...tightened the 2 screws that secure the variac wiper (the only problem) while I like the readouts (voltage makeup, currant draw and output voltage) I can’t really say I hear any diff with or without it, to be honest though I’m not running 4 bridged Levinson amps or anything close.
All that said, I really enjoyed your original post and I think I learned something, which after all is the point of reading anything technical.
Thanks again,
Kevin
