Synergistic Research HFT + FEQ

I heard this tweak at RMAF and brought it home on a 30-day free trial. Unfortunately it turned out to be a real system killer. I had 20 of the HFTs and tried them with and without the FEQ, using a ladder to put them up and take them down repeatedly. I couldn't believe how awful it was. Made it hard to enjoy my otherwise excellent ~$45k system.

I had a similar experience with their Quantum fuse. Never did trust anything with "Quantum" in the title. HiFi Tuning Supreme fuses, on the other hand, made my amps sound significantly better.

Dave;
Did you ever have success with Ozzy's HFTs?  I am thinking about buying supplies to try these, but your post raised some red flags.  Not having seen any of the actual parts I wonder if there are better way to put here together - is there a "best glue" to use?  Is there a preferred glue technique?   Do you have a close-up photo of one of yours?  Maybe if Ozzy sees this post he can provide a close-up photo. (I can't find them in his photos of his setup).

Dave,
There is another thread on Audiogon, just called,"Synergistic Research HFT's".  That thread seems to have a little more activity.  I've just posted a few things over there.  Oregon Papa has already noticed my activity, so maybe others might be able to help you on that thread.  This one seems to be dead.

Try placing them also on your speakers and equipment on all for sides. With speakers you can even place one on the top.

@ozzy Can you tell and show us what you used to make your own HFT's? I read about 'copper pipe caps with a copper cone inside'.

So far I have found this: https://goo.gl/Px4bjU for the copper caps

Is this OK - and how do the copper cones look like to put inside?
