geoff, just for fun, to humor you and to possibly learn something I don't know, which is always useful, I'll google micro arcing.
Frank, dear man, I think I answered your question without pointedly doing so. Pretty sure I never referred to myself, nor implied that I was a "genius", although statistically I only missed it by a point or two...... That and 5 bucks will get me a cup of coffee at Starbucks on a good day..... Nor did I claim to be an expert. I'm a jack of all trades........Master of none.
More to your point, my good man, no I haven't tried, nor even heard of either until this blog. The world is full of things that I haven't heard of. Some of them even have merit. However, the more overblown the sales hype for a product, any product, the less inclined I am to believe it, that simple.......If your snake oil............said that just to Pss you off, and to lighten the conversation a bit.......does half what you claim it does, I'm sure that you will sell gallons of it and make a ridiculous profit doing so.
Tell you what, I have a fairly simple system, two amps, bi-amp'd pair of speakers, CDP and TT. Send me a sample of your magik elixir and I'll try it on my system. If it does anything useful, that I can actually hear as an improvement, I will come back to this forum and happily relay the benefits of my experience. If I do NOT hear anything useful, I will agree to say nothing more on the subject....scouts honor........I have no axe to grind and even if your goop doesn't do anything in MY system, perhaps it will in someone else's, so unless I have something positive to report I will just get on with life and forget we had this polite conversation............You have nothing to lose Amigo.....If I like the stuff, I'll be an advocate. If I don't, I'll just go away quietly.......I have bigger concerns in life than arguing over something like this.....................What say, my man, you in??
