As far as I know there has never been an iconic audiophile tweak, whether inexpensive or Uber expensive, you know, icons like Silver Rainbow Foil, Green Pen, aftermarket fuses, fancy cable lifters, Mpingo disc, crystals, Shakti Stone, Walker Talisman demagnetizer, Tourmaline Gun ionizer, proven by anyone to be a hoax. Just a lot of who shot John. Or idle threats of “bet it can’t pass a blind test.” You can argue until the cows come home 🐄 or until you’re blue in the face 😨 as to their effectiveness or cost benefit as that would obviously vary.
Simple snake oil detection
Hi there were soooo many posts asking af any given device, toy, tweak or component is snake oil.
I’m not considered to be disbeliever or engineering guru at all. All I know and use is elementary math.
If an amp worth more than new Bmw, I can kinda take that with grain of salt, but if a wire is worth more than stainway grand, I am DEFINITELY sure snake oil is there without even questioning if this particular product makes sense
So now any audio device can be plugged into the detection formula above to truthfully define snake oil. All you need to know is product name, description and asking price.
