I have found out why new cables and tweaks actually work!



The issue is now solved via irrefutable scientific data and rigorous validation after unprecedented levels of physical effort. I now know why swapping cables works, and why a great deal of other tweaks work too.

I spent a great deal of time over the weekend cleaning my entertainment center. I used a Swiffer with the extending wand attachment. Immediately afterwards I went to watch a movie and the sound was clearer, cleaner than I’d ever heard it before. The video didn’t change, but the audio, it was so good I stopped playing the Fellowship of the Ring for the 10th time and went to listen to music.

Oh my goodness, what deep and extended soundstage! Not only could I hear deeper into all of my music but instruments had bodies and height! Diana Krall was so palpably present I wanted to buy her dinner. But what had changed?? Every single cable was left as it was, but I had cleaned!!

That’s when it hit me. All my tweaks and all my cable replacements did nothing. It was the cleaning I did every time I replaced a set of cables that actually caused the revolutionary transformations I was experiencing.  Same for every other audiophile!! You've ignored the cleaning and ascribed changes to gear.  We've been fooled!

On a completely unrelated note, I will soon be releasing my own line of advanced, jitter free, cleaning solutions, in peach, evergreen, unscented and Axe Body Spray fragrances.

Great poem!!!  I thought you were going to say that removing your cables , cleaning their connectors & also the jacks or terminals on the equipment & replacing them all made a sonic difference because it most definitely can! That’s worth doing every once in a while. I have the opposite theory on dust though & believe a good layer of it protects the electronics from outside evil forces…..

I think we should experiment by not cleaning a thing for two years and then hear what happens when we do. 😁

the Axe body spray was a dead giveaway and mildly offensive since I use their product each and every day. 

 

If you use the peach scent you will smell like candy.

I know you’re joshing, erik, or trolling, but it is true that cleaning has both physical and psychological benefits on audio.

 

Told ya.
