I don't claim to have all the answers but I have seen many threads where people use the "Original Audiophile Sony Playstation 1". Compared to that, I think me post is out of the ordinary. (I don't take offense to any of the comments because I know everyone is just kidding.). With regards to the Tice clock comments, I think that is a great comparison. I'm not an expert on line conditioners, but if I remember correctly, everyone thought the Tice was a joke because it was not a traditional line conditioner that you plugged components into. Today, there are many line conditioning products that you don't have to plug the components into as long as it is on the same circuit.
New Tweek - Has anyone ever tried this?
I have a pretty good system set up in my condo's living room. Like most condo's, the living room opens up into a kitchen/dining room area making it, essentially, one big room. While listening to music and glancing around the room I couldn't help but think that some of the stuff (besides my audio system) may have a negative effect on sound quality. I have a big box full of cables and accessories so I grabbed a bunch of cones (Polycrystal, Black Diamond, and DH Ceramic), and put them underneath things like my toaster oven, microwave, small pieces of furniture; basically anything that I could lift got cones. The end result is that it seems to have very noticeable and positive effect on sound quality. I was wondering if anyone had tried something like this and can confirm my results and possibly improve them. In the mean time, I came up with a couple of new ideas that might work, as well. I will report back any findings. Thanks in advance for any input.
