Default More ways to part the gullible from their hard earned

Hmm, well, There is one thing missing from this device. a Rat and other
rodent removal device to stop them chewing your cables.

I cannot help wondering though that if any system is so badly affected by
the type or the routing of a speaker or other cable its design should be
seen as suspect.
I have attended demos when I was younger for special cables for speakers
and some do sound slightly different, but to my mind just the routing of a
cable, assuming no interfering devices etc should not make any difference.
I do remember doing an experiment with a very long cable rolled up and you
could hear some difference there on one particular amp, but not on another.
Suspicion that output stage was not unconditionally stable and immune to
inductive and capacitive loads.
No such elaborate devices as this one are obviously a load of tosh. I do
feel that good old Russ's stuff like special mains plugs and leads are much
the same since the miles of normal copper out there is not going to be
affected by a couple of metres of very high quality wire and connectors.
I wonder if its like the placebo effect? Are you paying money to support
your belief rather than anything else?

I just received a one month sanction on an Australian (moderated) forum for
calling out this thing as utter bull****:

I love the way the company has strung together a bunch of
pseudo-scientific words to justify an expensive waste of money.

I made the mistake of challenging the importer on the lies promulgated.
Unfortunately, I ****ed off an advertiser. The entire thread has been
removed.
