Tweaks


The latest issue of Absolute Sound has a list of 15 or so tweaks that they say are worth doing. I would like to get some feedback from others about 3 of them.

1. Grounding Caps for unused preamp inputs.
2. Equipment anti-vibration devices such as Vibropods.
3. Aligning interconnects and power cords so that they cross at right angles to each other. (This sounds like a very difficult thing to arrange).

Albertporter, perhaps Jax2 could have his dog sit in the center of the room for better imaging.
Enough said about this on my part.

I wish you had not posted that at Audiogon, Marco was planning on introducing the dog-here, dog-gone tweak at CES. Since his large dogs are not allowed in the hotel he's having a couple of different models made from cloth and stuffed with various material. So far he says it's working out except for some issues with being too large.

To reduce size and for ease in shipping Marco came up with Velcro attachments for the tail, arms and legs but his (real) dogs keep carrying off the vital parts and chewing them up.

He originally considered What-Dog as a clever name but thought it too close to a famous manufacturers product and dropped the idea.

Guess we'll see how it all works out in January.

Old news, my friend: You don't need the Dog-Here Dog Gone tweak anymore (some folks don't want a large dog sitting in the middle of their listening room. I can't imagine why, but I guess there's allergies and cats and bunnies and other small critters.). For just $49.95 my dog will give you telephone call that will transform your system into a friggen symphony hall, cure your erectile dysfunction, and grow hair where it's missing. Hey, it's amazing but it's true, and it really works. OK, I dial the phone for him and hold the receiver, but it's really MY dog on the other end of the line. The beautiful thing is that you don't even have to answer the phone in your the same room...the effect will be the same. Heck, you don't even have to be in the house when you get the call! You could be in Denver, or Wichita, it'll still work. It even works by voicemail if you're just too busy to answer the CanineCall™. You actually can get the full benefit of the call by just thinking about my dog calling you up. As a matter of fact, I think you owe me $49.95 if you just read that cause you can count on those improvements that I promised you! I bet you feel something in your pants right about now. Go listen to your stereo now....12th row center, yeah the guy with the hair and the bulge in his pants and the great big smile.
This guy took the CanineCall™ and "forgot" to pay me for it, and look what happened to him (seen here in his listening room). Don't even think about not paying me if you read about the call in the previous post. If you read it, better call up PayPal so you can just sit back and enjoy the benefits like this young rascal learned at an early age (seen here upon first hearing his Victrola after an early CanineCall™ from Petey (seen here demonstrating the CanineCall™ to a radio audience.
Marco, I'm sold !

Only one question, if I have two stereo systems and receive the CanineCall™ does it transform both at the same time? Even more important, do I have to pay twice?
Albert, with your two systems you need the new CanineCall™ Signature Edition which handles not only all the audio gear in your house, but all electronic appliances as well. The early reports of the toasters growing hair on them are all a vicious lie started on Twitter by an anonymous Twit. Yes, you get all the systems covered, the appliances, the hair growth, and your johnson brought back from the dead all for the unbelievable price of only $99.95 + tax and nominal cellular charges. My dog is standing by...well, actually he's out playing in the yard, but he'll come when I call him...sometimes.
