Know of a "Dirt Cheap" tweak?
"I would simply note that Audio Desk System recommends the application of BLACK to the outer edge of CDs. I have done blind listening comparisons with fellow audio enthusiasts utilizing a highly revealing system (Meridian 808.6, ARC Ref40/250SE, M... 
A Big DIY Bang for Your Buck?
No, you’re the one that’s wrong at the fundamental level. Light is photons and electromagnetic waves. That’s why light travels at the speed of light. It’s also why audio signals in wire travel at near light speed - because the signal is comprised ...

HermanGeoffkait: Someone mentioned magnets were being used to cut down on RFI/EMI. That’s an interesting idea in light of the fact, no pun intended, that RF is comprised of photons which as we know have no magnetic charge.to which Herman replied, ... 
A Big DIY Bang for Your Buck?
I already stated the signal IS affected by magnets. Just not in a good way. Let me give you an example. If you remove the steel I.e., magnetic door from the circuit breaker box the sound will improve significantly. Putting the magnetic door back o...

hermanThe guy saying the paint color on magnets makes a difference is the same guy who told us several years ago that one of his little clocks affects the sound of a live symphony orchestra and the picture on a television even if the battery in th... 
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
NyameI have the greatest respect for people like Mapman who tried a red fuse and decided it did not help his system. But he never ridiculed those who were able to enjoy the benefits of the fuses. Well, actually he did. He was one of the most const... 
Know of a "Dirt Cheap" tweak?
jpmeurer2I have found that applying black permanent marker ink to the outer edge of a CD improves the overall sonic quality (better than the blue-green Stoplight).While I have to admit that’s it’s quite counter-intuitive, black is actually not the...
