“Marks on the underside”
"Perspicacity"?     That buyer seems much more shrewlike, than shrewd!                                                                               ".....not worth the hassle."    +1  
Best Power cable around/prefer under $300....
After listening to and enjoying lesser cables, from both Kimber and Synergistic; they were sold to make room for and finance their upper crust wares.       No difficulty quickly moving anything I've owned, from either company.         Mostly: he... 
A Fuse question
Imhififan is correct in that, "3AG" only represents the fuse’s physical size/material.   Nothing to do with electrical specs (ie: amperage, voltage or time characteristics).          "AG" is actually short for, "Automobile Glass", and, "AB": eit... 
Can speakers cause mental illness?
@jdane-     "Beg the question"   (definitions from Oxford Languages)  (of a fact or action) raise a question or point that has not been dealt with; invite an obvious question.   "some definitions of mental illness beg the question of what constitu...

McIntosh fuse changeout to make better sound
"This is partially correct, ac does change direction, but the EM wave does not."                         The fact that voltage/signal flows outside the conductor, as a wave, and always toward the load, doesn't fit their 1800's science based theo... 
New Synergistic Research Record Mat
The tech does open the door for a wide range of possibilities, when it comes to electrodynamics.    Given radio frequencies are part of the EM spectrum; I tend to lump them together.      Perhaps: not that good an idea, when it comes to clarity....

@cerrot-     Looking forward to your review/experience, one way or the other.

Absorption of RFI/EMI has nothing to do with piezo-electrics.    Were one to actually read the references I posted; the posed questions would be addressed.      Of course; comprehension is key! 
New Synergistic Research Record Mat
@lewm- RFI/EMI is all around us, all the time. https://imagine.gsfc.nasa.gov/science/toolbox/emspectrum1.html I’ve never tried crystals for anything in audio, since making a crystal radio as a kid, but- I wouldn’t scoff at the possibilities. ie:... 
New Synergistic Research Record Mat
"Unless you have tried something or heard it in someone else’s rig how can you legitimately comment on it?"    HEY: that makes SENSE!     This is AudiogoN.                                                               HOW DARE YOU?
