What is the Silliest Accessory You Have Ever Seen.

Audio2design, did you read the marketing behind the Hallograms? Go to the web site. It will make your day :)

It is wonderful how the mythology spreads. Humans will say almost anything that suits their purpose. You'd think every bodies electronic gear is blowing up and catching fire. I just does not happen very often. The only time I ever got close was with a power tool and it was my fault. Power tools do not have fuses. They must be regulated differently. They are certainly subjected to way more abuse. 
I worked in Audio for 15 years selling and installing equipment. I saw maybe three dead pieces. No fires. Nothing dramatic just dead. A bunch of bad switches in cheaper gear. No transformer failures. A lot of blown speakers.

@tomic601 , are you OK?

I do my best to stay "in the middle" when it come to audiophool gear-open mind until I try something myself.

So, you  already have a nice table/cart/phonostage and this thing will make it even "better"?

$400 headshell weight- anodized titanium plate, infused with silicone..... uh okaaayy?
I suppose it would look nicer than a penny w/blue tack.

 

Mijo- thanks for asking - doing well :-) actually worked a couple of days last week with really smart , engaged people - their software runs on 3 QPU, soon to be 5. Neat intersection of Quantum Physics and Engineering:-)

I spend less time and energy here, more on music, etc....

indeed, God does play Dice with the universe in strange and unknown ways...1, 0, or both :-)

Perhaps a different perspective? Certainly there is no shortage of items claiming to improve listening experience, almost every audio component makes that claim. To what extent the product succeeds in that is VERY subjective. For those with unlimited budgets cost is no concern, but for a very substantial portion of audio enthusiasts they can not afford to purchase a product that has no basis in fact and MISLEADS them to believe that the product will produce a significant improvement in their listening experience, but has little potential to do so.

I am a little worried about anything whose "How it works" includes...

"...Cantilever Bending Beams..."

I wonder if they would make one for Ortofon Concorde.
