Audio Tweak gone bad...similar experiences?


Hello,

As I said in a post earlier this morning, my right channel of my Classe DAC-1 has stopped working...I think I know what happened. I found a penny and placed it on top of my right channel speaker in hopes to "improve" the sound...Something that I was inspired by after reading some of the posts on Clever Little Clock. Got myself an atomic clock in my listening room which seems to help, so I was wondering if other things would help as well...Come to find out I think that the penny ruined my DAC! I have no other explanation for it other than that, so DAMN, that will be the last time I try that!

Peace,
Ben

I feel that in the interest of the 'brotherhood of man' I must divulge,without concern for my self interest,i.e 'profit',that I have found the most 'awe'some tweak yet.I have cryoed some conch shells that have been laying around in the household for years,(picked up during dives in the Keys).You would be truly amazed at the effect these things have on the sound characteristics of audio gear.I figured that since one can 'hear the ocean' in them then certainly they should be a cinch for making a mid-fi system such as mine sound much more expensive.Since not everyone lives near the ocean as I do,I would be happy to cryo some and ship them out,for a small fee to cover expenses!
