How Science Got Sound Wrong

I went to see what he was selling and lo and behold I see "Brilliant Pebbles" in the list."Blue Meanies" too and I think you will enjoy his for sale list.

This is, kind of, unfair.

Everybody, at least almost everybody, picks on geoffkait’s wares for being, ummm, slightly questionable. He is the joke of audiogon never taken seriously.

At the same time, you have companies that have products with similarly bizarre claims and they do not get that much bad attention as geoffkait’s. They actually have supporters while geoffkait is fighting alone.

He may have a bit abrasive way of communicating and may not be a sweet-talker as some of the other voodoo artists are, but his products are no more outrageous and laughable.

I am not, in any way, trying to imply that geoffkait should be taken seriously.

" I’ll show you mine if you show me yours. "

Look for Mahlman under Virtual Systems and I am there.

  He is not the only one I laugh at here as there are more preposterous dumb things offered through Audiogon than the mind can comprehend. It was a bit surprising though to see GK selling these kinds of things and in my mind is a serious strike against his credibility in anything audio. Beeswax fuses and Blackout Paint are two of my favorites for theater of the audio absurd. Cable cookers is another. I had no idea he was involved in selling that kind of nonsense until I looked today.

  In a way I do admire the entrepreneurial spirit that offers these things to people that buy them and I believe it was PT Barnum that said there was a sucker born every minute. If people insist on throwing their money away someone needs to collect it.
 

I may be the only one around who has never visited that famous geoffkait’s website, but I thought that Cable Cooker was someone else’s. I actually visited that website.

Overall, it seems that geoffkait gets the most laughs for silly products while others’ are at times discussed with some seriousness and fierce defense of them. geoffkait at least stays relatively low-key with his advertisements. Others go full attack on anyone not bowing.

That is not to say he is correct, etc., but he is no worse than many.

Another post hijacked. Why is this allowed. I thought the OP had an important point but this has descended into immaturity pure and simple.

I apologize for my part.

At the same time, it seemed like it was all said and done and almost everyone moved on.
