| Opening a can of worms Hush your mouth! The cable debate has been going on since around 1980. Maybe longer. And it’s not about to stop now. It has legs, Baby! Witness all the cable threads. The debate whether no cables at all is better than any cables is just a subset o... | |

| Opening a can of worms kosst_amojan@lalitk Are you blind or just stupid? Here’s exactly what I posted just 2 hours ago..."Just so we’re clear, cables do sound very, very slightly different, they do NOT burn in, and you CAN measure them. Anyone saying different is just l... | |
| Let's talk power cords RE UK cable dealer fraud case. Turns out it was just the usual audiophile goat rope in which the very well known audio dealer Russ Andrews was accused by some magazine of "hyping" some audiophile cables that were claimed to arrest RFI/EMI. As far ... | |

| Better Sound For Free! The laser comes on only after you press PLAY. Would you believe I have a product that is activated by the laser when PLAY is pressed? Actually the CD is inserted into the player on the tray when PLAY is pressed, then the laser comes in when the CD... | |
| Opening a can of worms I was once challenged to a karate fight. It was to take place on The Amazing Randi's big yatch which was going to be where the James Randi Education Fiundation (cough, cough) was having its retreat that year down in the Caribbean. I gracefully dec... | |
| Better Sound For Free! That’s because it’s more aerodynamic. It’s smoother so the laminar flow is better, less micro turbulence so less drag. Just kidding. 😀 | |
| Better Sound For Free! Never unplug anything. That’s my motto. It disrupts the electrical mechanical interface and that takes a few days to heal. For that reason I’m out. If I recall correctly some CD players sound better after hitting PAUSE, then hitting play again, so... |
