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

PS Audio

Fear of Tweaks

Change can be tough for me, especially when the means to an end make no sense. Like green pens on CD edges, demagnetizers, magic stones, voodoo dots, resonators aligning the earth to my stereo system.

Ideas presented to me that I cannot make sense of get put on hold. Sometimes indefinitely. Sometimes forever.

I remember the first time this became apparent to me. Harry Weisfeld’s, VPI Brick.

@geoffkait I agree with @mahgister above. Thanks for the psaudio post. I admit I am in Paul's camp. Although I have overcome some initial hesitations and tried tweaks that seemed to make some intuitive sense to me, it will probably take someone gifting me the tweak before I try any that seem bat crap crazy to me.
In my opinion, the best tweak is ensuring the backside of all of your audio components face towards true magnetic north.  The results are “jaw dropping”.  As the magnetic North Pole moves, you will have to make adjustments to your components placement.
