Game Changing Tweak


I bought a pair of electrical devices called Electraclear from a company called AddPowr. They're simply plugged into an electrical outlet that's shared by your system. I paid under $300 for them and they've boosted my system's fidelity dramatically. In the 1800's,  a physicist and mathematician, Joseph Fourier, delved into the science of harmonics, and now the founder of AddPowr used these equations to increase the signal to noise ratio. (more signal=less noise) His devices act as harmonic resonators. He worked for a high-end audio cable company before focusing on this new range of products.
   I thought that when I first received the Electraclears, the difference would be subtle. To my surprise and delight, it was a stunning change. I was hearing music from the inside out. Cleaner, more dynamic, and a far greater and noticeable improvement than my power conditioner produces.
   I love finding inexpensive audio devices that work. The company makes other products, but I'd recommend a pair of Electraclears to start.

That made me laugh. 

Surely some cat turds sound better than others......
I do not know about the device in question but I have learned from experience over the years that if you are trying to solve a problem it’s best to look for solutions that are well understood. Oh and it often involves science and other things that you learn in school. That’s probably the systems engineer in me talking. Trial and error can work also but usually takes longer and cost more. Sometimes it might never end. Sound familiar?

It's all in the mind, y'know", George Harrison, 1968.  

I can hear George saying that in his cockney accent...no system needed.

My refrigerator is noisy.  Hmmmm......
I don’t know about the test it 50 times thing but in general if one is going to recommend a poorly understood solution of any sort, especially a pricier solution, doing diligence to verify findings can only help. Making a change and saying you hear a (positive) difference of some sort is something......but not much, especially when that is all there is for people to go on.

It’s ok to do it once and say what you hear, but not Ok to jump to the conclusion that you are infallible and others will surely hear the same thing. Even worse then is to discount others when they report something different even if based on similar low level of diligence.
prag,

It’s the only argument one has when there is nothing concrete to substantiate a claim. Why people choose to spend money on things that apparently work by magic rather than for some good reason is beyond me. It’s a personal matter mostly. People spend money on all kinds of things, some crazy, some not.

My theory is obsessive personalities cannot stop themselves from pursuing their obsession.  Figuring out what can be done to make things sound better is not easy.  But at some point it becomes grasping at straws if not reeled in.
