Tweak you gotta try. Post your results...

Well I read some reviews about the new High Fidelity cables that were designed by the former owner of Virtual Dynamics. They seem to be using magnets as their claim to fame in their design.

I happened to have some rod type axially magnets that were about 3/8" in diameter and about 1" long. I installed 2 of them near the end of my speaker cables near the speakers. 2 sets are needed for each speaker wire left and right).They are installed so that the magnetism is pulling through the cable.

It is quite interesting, but I would like some others to try this and share their opinions before I comment.

I also added a set at the Amp end.These magnets cost about $3.39 each and you will need at least 4 of them or 8 if you want to try them also at the Amp end.

I bought mine from http://www.amazingmagnets.com/show-fractional-r1000c.aspx

Make sure you select USPS for about $4.95 shipping otherwise you will end up paying for UPS at about $13 for shipping.

I've been using neodymium magnets for several years in a few applications and they do make for an improvement in sound.Tom

I use magnets in the ac and dc signal path and where they are placed makes for a fantastic improvement. I also use magnets in other ways and with other materials that make for some marked improvements. Can't tell you what yet..and I am not sure why..but better has been the outcome. Keep on looking and trying..be careful and don't swallow them magnets and don't burn down the house. Tom

I land hear to see what's going on and sometimes come away
with an idea that's new to me or a crumble of a catalyst that
may start a fire of thought. I can get that light from
somebody that's new or old or even someone who's hear for
their own self promotion or even those who just seem to want
to spar. Tom

Meaningless as in the efficiency gains in the conduction of signal thru wire? Is that your take away after reading the patent? Tom
