What's the deal with the Machina Dynamica Clock?


Just my uninformed and untested opinion, and maybe I am wrong, but this Clever Little Clock sounds more like a Clever Little CROCK to me. Any true believers are welcome to enlighten me, but don't expect me to whip out the credit card just yet. Don't mean to "tick" anyone off. Note: sarcastic skeptical scoffers are also very welcome to post to this thread. :)

So Geoff, you state:
"the Clever Little Clock does not directly affect the audio signal in any way - not the house wiring, components, cables, speakers or acoustic waves in the room."
And, according to your website:

1) you can substitute different quartz modules in your clock
2) only "special" batteries will work
3) if you adjust the time the audio enhancement will cease
4) you must remove the clock from your house for A/B'ing
5) you can't even place the clock in your car for A/B'ing

You also state
:...the Clever Little Clock has a profound influence on the sound. In fact, one customer opined recently on AA that the Clock is the most significant audio item ever, including components or cables, etc.....I am deferring any explanation of the clock until sometime in the future..... explanations can sometimes bog things down, so to speak, rather than help anyone. For time being, I prefer to rely on my customers' descriptions of their experiences.

Can you say "placebo effect"?
GIVE ME A BREAK!!!
Geoff, reading your disagreement to my statement about "replacing the quartz module" let me clarify my statement with a direct quote from your website:
Machina Dynamica reserves the right to use more than one brand/model to produce Clever Little Clocks, so don't be alarmed if the Clock you receive is not the exact one in the photo. All versions of the Clever Little Clock are equivalent.

I stand by my previous post. From the issues I raised there, I don't think that anyone with the slightest degree of intelligence could possibly believe that this product could produce ANY audio enhancement.
