Good advice here IMO and cheap/free to try, excepting #6: http://shunmook.com/userinfo/Tips%20for%20the%20Crazed%20Shun%20Mook%20Users.pdf

Nothing against Shun Mook but those suggestions are SO cliche and dated. One imagines they posted them so folks wouldn’t think them so strange. Their best products? The Original Cable Jacket and the enigmatic Mpingo disc. I met the two Shun Mook dudes back at CES ’97 when I was exhibiting with Mapleshade. Not sure if they noticed my Mpingo disc knock-off sitting on the floor. #6 is an interesting suggestion, if only becasue of the whole can of worms it opens up. 


@astro58go


never mind

suggestion though... you ought to change whatever it is you listen to Grateful Dead only

by all means, reply in order that you have the last word

let the words be yours, I'm done with mine


@astro58go         Go back and re-read my post. It was directed to gdhal where I simply quoted his response to you (for context).
Yup, quack = cables almost immediately for some.  I've got my bias, and will not go there.  There's plenty of other 'WTF' stuff being offered that makes snake oil seem like a daily dose like a multivitamin....

Cable stands...try some blocks of wood before you spring for That.  C'mon...it could be some nice walnut or zebrawood or teak.  Have it CNC'd into whatever shape tickles you....

Magnets...huh?  WHY?  Sounds like black magic physics to me...

I'm waiting for 'spindizzy' something or another being offered. (See Heinlein's 'Cities in Space' novels, @ Wikipedia).  Floating amps might cure Something we're not aware of....yet.... ;)

Yes, I'm trying to be 'funny'.  Some seem to take umbrage at my sense of humour, asking if I'm on drugs.  Well, currently, No.  Got some? *L*
