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

Lets bad rap everything and each other its great fun!!!

>>>If you believe the power cord is filtering RF you’re mistaken.

No, I’m not suggesting power cords filter RF. I’m suggesting that well designed power cables and their terminations can prevent EMF from influencing components and other cables in the vicinity. Benji’s comparison of a water filter and a power cord should not be taken literally. For one thing, electrons don’t flow.

The Gate - a $5K piece of hardware that fails to deliver on its promise to access "other realms and dimensions"!!! Touted and beloved by a certain NW Agoner!

whostolethebatmobile, 
Uh, you just contradicted yourself. 😛 No biggie. Let me refresh your memory. Here’s what you wrote originally, 

”And not just what gets into the cable in those last 6 feet, but what gets out of it (or doesn’t get out) is even more important.”

My water filter comparison was for all those people on the forum that think nothing can make a difference. I don't care if we are talking about cables, equipment, tweaks, cartridges, cleaning solutions, racks or whatever else I did not mention. There is a certain group of jailhouse lawyers here who seem to know everything about everything and according to them, nothing will make a difference. It is all snake oil and false claims, vendors are just taking your money. It is all smoke and mirrors. We are all suckers to believe that something can make a difference !

I guess I should try and find another one of those Radio Shack Realistic multiplex units with the 8 track player and the turntable intergraded on top with the 2 ft tall speakers that I got for christmas when I was 12 yrs old. That's it, the holy grail of audio playback. Nothing can sound better, no innovation in design, materials or circuitry will ever make music sound better.

It's all fake right ?
