What is the Silliest Accessory You Have Ever Seen.
@mijostyn Thank you for TELLING me what i hear and don't hear in my system...I am off this thread now,  nothing to be gained here! 
What is the Silliest Accessory You Have Ever Seen.
So many naysayers on this thread....question is how many of them have actually heard what the Shakti Hallograph’s can do and have had them in their system? My bet...none of them..:0(I dont have any problem with folk who have actual experience with...

@mijostyn   You were asked if you have heard the Shakti's? I know that you have not. I will ask you a question, is it ok to post an opinion on the value and the SQ of any item that you have NOT heard and yet feel like denigrating? If so, then plea... 
What is the Silliest Accessory You Have Ever Seen.
@simao One could ask the same question about what justifies the cost on numerous pieces of gear in this hobby! If you look at how the Shakti’s are made and what goes into the various aspects of the product to get it to market, I can see where they...

I’m not really a fan of ’better records’. I have a number of his ’recommendations’ and they are nothing special. Most of the better D to D LP’s or the likes of Opus 3, smoke them. Problem is, and this is just IMHO, the guy really isn’t listening t... 
Can flexible power cables sound good?
As mentioned above, the Zen Wave pc is superb. Also excellent is the Black Cat pc. I have both and depending on their upstream gear, both have easily beaten out much larger and less flexible designs. ( and also far more costly!).

I own and have always been highly impressed by the Shakti’s! One of the best additions I have made to the acoustic treatments in my room. Why the OP has to ’assume’ that these do not work is interesting, perhaps because looking at them they do not...

 @asvjerry  Not relevant to used, or resale, LP's, which is what we are talking about here.

@jafant   Maybe. Although does that explain the significant increase in value of the MFSL Milestones LP that I exampled above? Plenty of supply for years...and little demand. Now that it is 'supposedly' out of stock ( and for how long?) the demand...

@builder3  Uhm, not what a "Seller' will pay, what a "Buyer" will pay. Selling it for less makes perfect sense if that 'less' is going to be more than what it can be sold for after said sale, or in the future! That is if one has to sell.

@chrisoshea I think you probably hit the nail on the head when you stated what you did about 28 year old newbies. That would certainly explain why so many of these titles are selling for multiples of what they were just a few months back...or even...

@millercarbon  Another non-sequitur.... 
Interesting development
Ok, so the fact that the title is no longer available, or is temporarily unavailable, guarantees it will now sell for multiples of the original price. This does not really make total sense to me, as the Miles Davis Milestones MFSL reissue was avai...

@millercarbon sorry, but I don’t think your reasoning explains the sudden rise in value of the particular albums that I mentioned in my prior post.  
Interesting development
Can anyone explain the sudden and significant increase in the desirability of a record like the MoFi release of Miles Davis Milestones, as an example. This release was available for years with seemingly little absorption, and yet we now see it sel...
