hyper Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 There certainly is some waco gear out there with outrageous claims of technical prowess that people drop more than a few lettuce leaves on searching for that audio nirvana only to be left with nothing more than what could be put Into a little sugar pill! Id be interested to hear what other members have come across over the years that is totally ridiculous!! Meant to be light hearted peeps To kick in with a starter $3000 cable elevators which claim to cease electron misfiring. let the fun begin!!

Once was an audiophile Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I am staying on the sidelines and planning on watching the bloodbath I hope they use elevators that way we won't get any blood on the floor..............

Just imagine what some Baby Promethean Isolaters could do for your system. There's another site I haven't found yet that has stones you put on your gear as well as 'special' cotton wool to put on your cable terminations. Gets you that last ounce of realism with your system. Or the last few gullible dollars out of your wallet. One or the other.Edit: oopsies. I see Manchu has found some fluff! More than one seller of this mystical upgrade on the Internet it appears. So must be true. Edited August 2, 2013 by shaky
Guest guru Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I use after market fuses, cd lathes, NOS tubes, expensive power cords, really expensive interconnects,after market coupling devices,extremely low output mc's and step up transformers, single ended triodes,broad front baffle speakers,interface shielding devices, EMS paper, no filter 20 bit DAC's,CD mats, green pens and loads of unobtanium so I can't really comment on your preposition of wasted lettuce leaves but I know what sounds good. YMMV however.

Krispy Audio Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 (edited) I agree with Phantom, I see the funny side of the cliche thread but this one is going to insult and offend some people imo. There are a plethora of things that I believe in and/or use today that I wouldn't have dreamed of a couple of years ago - because I've now heard and experienced them.

You misunderstand the post ass wipe use of such devices, often used by charmless middle aged audiophiles seeking attention to the trouser department when attempting to engage with members of the opposite opinion.
shaky Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Shaky - How dare you call it fluff!!!!! Sorry. I stand corrected. Audiograde fluff! Better?

There are a plethora of things that I believe in and/or use today that I wouldn't have dreamed of a couple of years ago - because I've now heard and experienced them. Meant to be totally light hearted mate hope people can just treat it as such and not take it so seriously. Gotta admit that fluff is pretty funny on the back of that CD player mate 1

Krispy Audio Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I realise you want it to remain light hearted but to give you an example, I have a customer who uses said fluff! One man's snake oil is another man's treasure. I think you might be inadvertently making fun of some people here, that's all. I'm all for laughs, just hope no one takes offence. 1
jeffl Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 This thread is getting close , to being flushed ... Reminds of that olde Vinyl sounds better than Digital *** CRAP ****! or MC Beats MM , specially in BluRay , at 45 RPM Had2GeThatOffMahChest,JeffL
