Audio nonsense


In this wonderful world of audio that we journey through folks selling stuff have sometimes been inventive in what they claim. In your trip down this road what sticks out as the most ludicrous thing you’ve seen someone try to sell? 
 

I can point to 2 things. When I first saw a Tice clock in a store I thought it was a gag. Next- Peter Belt.

My favorite is the

“I don’t need to try jumping off a skyscraper to know the outcome”

Such a dumb argument. And so arrogant at the same time. This basic knowledge justifies all your beliefs. Right…

Do we know all there is to know about electricity? Do you know all there is to know about electricity? Is there a possibility that we still have a lot to learn? Is there a possibility that you have something to learn about electricity? Is there a possibility that we might not know all there is to measure? Is there a possibility that you might know all there is to measure?

But you folks know all there is to know, right?

You do know, that depending on how a cable was designed, how the shielding was implemented and how it is connected to ground makes a difference, right?

That why many cables have arrows, so the shield ground is on the right end of the signal…

 

Pretty basic…

We don't know all there is to know about gravity but we know enough to know the outcome of stepping off a skyscraper. We know enough about electricity to build audio components that can take sound waves turn them into electrical signals and back to sound waves. It isn't necessary to know everything there is to know.

The next big wave in upgrades for us audiophiles? 

Hint: what transmits sound from speaker to ear?

after several cases of beer and lengthy discussions with myself, I’ve hit on the perfect air blend that will transmit sound wave with far less distortion than regular air molecules. SonicAir! In fact I have a solid upgrade path from Haze Free to Khrystal Kleer.

Only $1000.00 buys 1 cubic foot of compressed Haze Free, enough SonicAir to treat your entire house forever.
