What’s your vote for the most ridiculous, overpriced, and useless tweak?


My vote: Furutech Outlet Cover 105 NCF $220, with “special crystalline material that has two “active” properties.” https://www.thecableco.com/outlet-cover-105-ncf.html

@mahgister,

"...My experiment with stones and crystals were great tweaks with positive results but less evident one by one than with the resonators...My tweaking of mechanical vibrations were also evident but less so than the effect of the resonators,but I listen now to my resonators with an already tweaked system, electrically, and mechanically... Without these tweaks perhaps the effect of the resonators would have been there but less astounding in their evidence... All tweaks put my already good system to another level that is for sure..."

I wonder if you have heard of a British satirical magazine called Private Eye? It was originally founded by comedian Peter Cook and features a column called Pseuds Corner.

Your post my friend, I feel would be a prime candidate for submission. Perhaps some of mine too.

It's a dangerous disease, audiophilia, is it not? 




An ordinary man has no means of deliverance.

“If I could explain it to the average Joe Schlunk they wouldn’t have given me the Nobel prize.”

Faint heart ne’er won fair maiden.

No guts, no glory.
^^^ The two sides will never meet.  Where some consider it a special person with a sense of adventure and curiosity to experiment with some of the more, "bizarre" tweaks, others just consider this the "freak side show" of audio.

But above all, its your money and you spend it however you like.
That’s weird. All I did was mention Joe Schlunk and Jitter shows up. 
Another Saturday and I guess you must be using your special powers once again.  But one would expect no less from the sorcerer with a pocket full of magic crystals and cocoa pebbles, sorry, I meant brilliant pebbles.
