I have found out why new cables and tweaks actually work!



The issue is now solved via irrefutable scientific data and rigorous validation after unprecedented levels of physical effort. I now know why swapping cables works, and why a great deal of other tweaks work too.

I spent a great deal of time over the weekend cleaning my entertainment center. I used a Swiffer with the extending wand attachment. Immediately afterwards I went to watch a movie and the sound was clearer, cleaner than I’d ever heard it before. The video didn’t change, but the audio, it was so good I stopped playing the Fellowship of the Ring for the 10th time and went to listen to music.

Oh my goodness, what deep and extended soundstage! Not only could I hear deeper into all of my music but instruments had bodies and height! Diana Krall was so palpably present I wanted to buy her dinner. But what had changed?? Every single cable was left as it was, but I had cleaned!!

That’s when it hit me. All my tweaks and all my cable replacements did nothing. It was the cleaning I did every time I replaced a set of cables that actually caused the revolutionary transformations I was experiencing.  Same for every other audiophile!! You've ignored the cleaning and ascribed changes to gear.  We've been fooled!

On a completely unrelated note, I will soon be releasing my own line of advanced, jitter free, cleaning solutions, in peach, evergreen, unscented and Axe Body Spray fragrances.

Cleanliness is next to godliness. 

Not only plays better but smells better too.

I have no use for "starting a conversation" here.

So what exactly is your problem if I do?

Real life is actually better for that. You really should try it

How is what I do or don’t do any of your business? And what makes you feel like you know anything about real life better than anyone else, because if you think you do I have many many questions of how you got that idea in your head.

I’m here for sharing experiences and learning. I don’t know it all yet. If I make a post it is to share observations, only.

Really? Because most of what I see you do is post shade.

That's a breath of fresh air, thank you for that Erik. Who in his right mind can find the time and actually ENJOY cleaning all their connections on a continuing basis? I dedicate my time to listening to music instead.
