Brilliant Pebbles, a new tweak, cheaper than high end cables.

Hmmm, I always thought it was "Etiam tu, mi fili" although in Greek. Who would know, after all these years?

I actually had glow-in-the dark Crocs around and did not notice any impact on sound. On the other hand, I rarely use air conditioning so I cannot say they would not help if I did.

" This thread was really unnecessary dude. That stated, It would not matter what you did with that McIntosh equipment, it will still sound like the sub-par over priced McIntosh equipment it is. The best thing you could do is start over.

You are correct. I feel kind of embarrassed to say I have a brand that has had a history of shabby engineering and poor sound quality. It just dose not hold it’s value because there is no demand for 2nd hand Mc. stuff, so I know I’m stuck with it. But please don’t be judgmental about my equipment. When I get my results, I am willing to forward the Pebbles to you for a real high end audiophile test. Perhaps better gear will reveal more of the sonic benefits of the Pebbles. Thank you in advance for your help.

No one seems to know Brilliant Pebbles was the brainchild of Lawrence Livermore physicist Lowell L Wood as part of the SDI initiative taken up by the Reagan administration in the late 1980's. Instead of thousands of kinetic satellites placed in orbit defending humanity from nuclear annihilation we have a handful of crystals defending your tunes. This proves the adage that history repeats itself, first as drama, then as farce.

Hey, dude, take a Valium. This is a hobby, not World War III.
