Why do digital coax cables matter?
Sorry Al, don’t buy it. You get an E for Effort. I won’t point out your name dropping. You apparently haven’t had the opportunity to try the Shun Mook Orignal Cable Jacket or the Highwire Cable Wrap, both of which improve the sound of *analog* cab... 
Help with room treatments
are so many room problems the topic should probably be broken up into a number of subtopics.And the number of audiophile devices that have been introduced to combat all those problems has grown as a consequence. you got your Echo Tunes, Corner Tun... 
The MP3 is finally...dead!
And yet for all practical purposes MP3 is indistinguishable from Redbook CD by a panel of expert listeners in controlled blind tests.😀 
Lov'n the MC-0.5's but - a magnetic question
Generally speaking, magnetic fields are not good for the sound. We are used to hearing the effects of magnetic fields because all currents through wires produce them. But if you can reduce them or eliminate them the sound would be better, no? That... 
Best fuses for under $50?
You got me there, nonoise. I must've forgot. Audiophiles are *intimately familiar* with their systems. Which is why their systems sound so *good." Not why their systems sound so *bad."  My mistake. 😀 
Best fuses for under $50?
I don’t wish to be argumentative but I’m pretty sure that it’s actually rather difficult to separate out the "ups and downs" of fuse break in or any other kind of break in, especially over a period of hundreds of hours or more. That’s a hundred ho...

The current flowing through any conductor produces magnetic fields. It's the right hand rule.☝️

Can they detect the presence of artificial atoms? Can they detect the presence of one molecule thickness Graphene? If they can detect nothing it might not mean nothing’s there. It might look like a nothing burger. 🍔 
Damping to exitation of parasitic modes of
  jollygreenaudiophile2 OPI Have never heard anything negative about Shun Mook, so there "should" be something to it. At least I hope so if he's getting my ducky!I hate to be so judgemental but if you've never heard anything negative about Shun Mo... 
Damping to exitation of parasitic modes of
I kind of doubt any manufacturer provides transmissibility curves for either damping materials or for components. Vibration Isolation manufacturers sometimes provide transmissibility curves, but only for structureborne vibration, including vibrati... 
Directionality of wire
Heisenberg is speeding down the highway when he's pulled over by a cop. The cop asks for his license then asks to look in his trunk. When he opens the trunk there's a dead cat inside. The cops says, hey, buddy, ya know there's a dead cat in your t... 
Directionality of wire
A photon checks into a hotel. The bellhop asks the photon if he has any luggage. The photon replies, no, I'm traveling light. 
Directionality of wire
Einstein was lying in bed next to a lady smoking a cigarette. The lady pouted, that didn’t take very long. To which Einstein replied, for me it did.
