Do you believe in Magic?
Well, actually it didn't quite happen the way you say it did. In your own words you were being confrontational and I responded. You used veiled insults and innuendo, and continue to do so. You accused me of having no explanations for my products, ... 
Do you believe in Magic?
As you pointed out, there is no explanation provided for some (many) of my products - that's because I don't know the mechanism of operation, or I haven't sat down to write one up, or because I do not wish to divulge the specifics of how the produ...

Bryon C - since most of your angst seems to be directed at the Intelligent Chip, I will respond to your request for underlying Laws involved in how the chip works, which can be found in my definitive explanation at:Www.machinadynamica.com/machina6... 
In defense of quantum products.
The irony, of course, is that everyone pretty much thinks that quantum products are a marketing ploy, so how does that improve sales for such products? Everyone likes products with easy to grasp explanations, like vibration control and EMI/RFI abs... 
Do you believe in Magic?
Mrtennis, while nobody would say there is no such thing as the placebo effect, the placebo effect does not explain away all tweaks, or even all outlandish tweaks. The problem is that some of these tweaks are so preposterous, so devilish, nobody wo... 
Do you believe in Magic?
Byron c - no, you did not touch a nerve. I've become quite used to, you could say even a little entertained by, such confrontations, as you call them. But I have to admit I'm a little confused by your comment, which seem to be your Big Gripe, that... 
Do you believe in Magic?
Byron C - So, a died in wool skeptic continues to post long, drawn out diatribes full of attacks, veiled attacks, straw man arguments and innuendo. Geez, make your posts a little less verbose and a shade more bitter and you'll be right up there wi... 
Do you believe in Magic?
Byron c - It's not terribly surprising that you go on as such length on the explanation for the clock since in your OP you expressed disbelief in the explanation for the ERS paper which, relatively speaking, is child's play. I am going on a limb h... 
Do you believe in Magic?
In the words of Wittgenstein's friend and colleague Georg Henrik von Wright: "He was of the opinion... that his ideas were generally misunderstood and distorted even by those who professed to be his disciples. He doubted he would be better underst... 
Do you believe in Magic?
Somebody didn't pick up on the humor of Sabai's remark. I've said it before and it's worth repeating: a sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from Magic. Natives on some forlorn island believe a camera is Magic and steals their sou... 
In defense of quantum products.
"I opened up a Bybee Qunatum filter...pitiful. What a waste of money! nothing in it except some black goop around the conductor that was inside a ceramic or plastic covering."Just curious, did you try knocking off a Bybee Quantum Filter in your ba... 
Do you believe in Magic?
Sakai, you are correct, there may be some confusion here. Tbg, so it wasn't Magic for you, is that what I hear you saying? Of course you know by now I had to burn mine. One can't help wondering how many manufacturers have incorporated the stuff in... 
Do you believe in Magic?
I'm all for well controlled studies, heck I'm even for blind testing or whatever type of testing anyone wishes to do. Why anyone would think I am not in favor of well-controlled studies is beyond me. Why, it's almost like you think I'm trying to p... 
Do you believe in Magic?
I tend to think that anyone looking for "satisfying" explanations will probably be, uh, unsatisfied by the explanations provided for many of the less conventional audio tweaks and devices that have popped up over the last couple of decades. Let's ... 
Do you believe in Magic?
If we accept the premise that most devices and tweaks operate in physical reality, I.e., they affect physical, electrical properties that directly or indirectly result in a better audio signal presented to the ears, then there must be a real, phys...
