VPI is bringing back the Magic Brick!

That’s what they said about the Tice Clock. And the Intelligent Chip. It's likely you didn’t have the brick in the proper direction. Probably best if we throw out the negative results as outliers. Same as we do with fuses. Make sense?

The expression thick as a brick springs to mind.

If these manufacturers and reviewers have fear of tweaks like the VPI Brick what in heaven’s name will they say or do when the going gets tough. It could get pretty ugly. There are a lot more difficult to fathom or preposterous sounding things in audioland than the VPI Brick, that’s for gol dern sure. Let’s see, you got your tiny little bowl resonators, Schumann frequency generators, Morphic Message Labels, battery powered clocks, Red X Pen, green pens, purple pen, Mr. Chip. And many others. Enough to give amp manufacturers and reviewers conniptions. It’s also quite funny, maybe not funny like a clown funny, that PS Audio readership is under the impression the brick works by mass loading. I’d opine the quest for better sound inspires more creativity and invention than a Mission to Mars.

Just wrap the transformer with low frequency high permeability mu metal and be done with it, oh, and leave the nut on the bolt holding down the transformer slightly loose so the vibration won't couple so strongly to the chassis and everything inside it.
