OK, so I have to ask. Is this real, or is this a joke?


This is plastered several times on the Audiogon home page: "High Fidelity Cables NPS-1260 3D Enhancer 1.5ml" for $349. Am I late to the April fool’s party?   How much for a gallon?

You going for a ride in a car missing one front wheel? Think it might be dangerous? But, you are an idiot for never trying it first.

"Your pathetic analogy is absurd and completely non pertinent to the topic … as is your presence on this forum. If you think your imagined “knowledge” trumps what I, and the other posters observe, you are delusional."

Actually, for most of us, the analogy is spot on.  We can't try everything that is claimed to 'work'--we have neither the time, nor the money. So some improvement that on the face of it seems absurd will have to wait for those modifications that seem to make sense.  I have $500-$2000 I want to use to improve my system, say. Should I squander it on stuff like this--how about new tubes? or a pre-amp?  or a pile of CDs?   I personally consider lots of things to be stupid and useless that I feel no need to experiment with.   Heroin, for example (Do I listen to those who scoff at me for not trying it?)  Sweat lodges.  Elixirs of all kinds. A new washing machine. And I ignore them despite the fact that their ads tell me this product will change my life.  I don't think any of us are really bothered by those who claim that of course, this hi-end product will only 'work' on systems much more expensive than ours, or only for those with the Golden Ear, or only for sound engineers.   As for those who claim that skeptics have no business commenting here, your religion must be pretty shaky to be challenged by an apostate or two.

Again, you are making an assumption."

Yeah, you're right.  The enthusiastic fit apparently got the better of me.  For MOST OF US, Read:  MANY OF US.   I'm guessing (assuming) that many readers here don't have the financial resources or patience to evaluate every recommended tweak in their systems, and have to toss out those that don't seem to make sense.
