| Sonic Tonic fom the Tweek Geek Addendum: sorry, not be be hysterical but such a scenario with the hysteresis, etc. seems rather unlikely, at least for shielded power cords, due to the uh, shielding. Anyone who doesn’t see what I mean raise your hands. ✋🏼 ✋🏼 ✋🏼 How can you be in... | |
| Sonic Tonic fom the Tweek Geek How can Sonic Tonic remove electrical hash in power cables if it’s simply resting on the connectors? Unless either the Sonic Tonic has some ability to attract RF from inside the power cord or the signal is traveling on the outside of the power cor... | |

| Sonic Tonic fom the Tweek Geek @jay23 I’m not claiming the violet pen affects conductivity one way or the other. I suppose it could be related to the photoelectric effect, which of course would be good for conductivity. Now, if we were talking about the Red X Pen which, now tha... | |

Hey, it's not nice to put words in someone's mouth. Stove piping means nothing of the sort. Stove piping is an Intel expression that refers to the probl... | |
| Has anyone made the jump to $uper High end and were disappointed? It’s true that there are a lot of variables. But variables CAN be controlled. Time of day, day of week, the weather ⛈ sunspot activity 🌞 humidity, whatever. You change ONLY ONE VARIABLE AT A TIME. Then you will know what causes the change - the on... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? I’ve been to the top of the mountain (not just Base Camp) and this is what I found out. - A rich audiophile has about as much chance of getting into Audio Nirvana as a camel has of passing through the eye of a needle. 🐪- Necessity is the mother of... | |
| Sonic Tonic fom the Tweek Geek I would be interested if anyone has sent his fuse off to the Cryo lab or has applied Contact Enhancer to the end caps. Or is that too crazy? 😜 Another trick is to wedge a square of 1/8 or 1/16 cork under the fuse holder. Speaking for myself I almo... | |

Re: Law of Diminishing ReturnsJust to chime in on the subject of diminishing returns, I don’t actually believe there is a Law of diminishing returns for audio, there’s no hyperbolic curve, or some artificial ceiling that cannot be surpassed. "I do... | |
| Scam dealer on Ebay? That’s a Strawman argument since obviously don’t think its a scam. How can I condone it if i don’t think its a scam in the first place? Hel-loo! | |
| E-BAY and SHIPPING ARE GETTING OUT OF CONTROL For many things eBay is the perfect marketplace for buying and selling. Plus eBay guarantees items sold. Where's the beef? 🐂 | |
| Room Acoustics Perhaps not all foam is the same but if the foam is similar to or is SONEX look out! And please if you’re a big fan of SONEX don’t flood my email box but SONEX is one of the worst products ever foisted on naive gullible audiophiles who have mostly... | |
| which direction?? - HARMONIC TECH - TRUTH LINK INTERCONNECTS Costco_emoji, actually the video you linked states very clearly that the wire - even very thin wire - is drawn through a series of dies.

| Speaker cable length with monoblock amps? I was with Bob and Curl at CES a couple times. Among others things Bob had great ears. Plus I had some of his TG Audio 5 feet long speaker cables I traded him for, and they were fabulous. Thus, I'm inclined to believe the five foot story. |
