I Just Know It's BS ... But I Have't Tried It Yet

Have you ever noticed how quickly naysayers jump on "unconventional" products they have never tried, letting us know they are worthless -- shamelessly admitting they have no direct experience with the item they are putting down? For example, anything with the word quantum in the name seems to set some people off. Do you have your favorite examples of this phenomenon? What do you make of this irrational approach to high end audio that is often suffixed by LOL and exclamation points for emphasis?

I have found the best gear and parts by going down the road less traveled rather than the beaten path of safe and big. Many gems in the unknown and nowhere is that more true then this industry.

Stringreen,

Please note, in most cases, I was not referring to "unknown" products. I was referring to "unconventional" products.

Grannyring,

My experience is similar to yours. Although I would call this "unconventional" rather than "unknown", in most cases, in a few cases -- and I have examples in my own system -- there are, in fact, "unknown" elements involved.

Sabai, ya I guess I mean both! Sometimes they both are true of the same builder, sometimes not.

Happy to learn that Geoff's unconventional Animal Magnetism covers are clearly recognized in the video world. Until this news arrived I felt like a voice in the wilderness proclaiming their benefit for audio cables.

I guess one can now agree Geoff's Animal Magnetism cable collars have achieved their break through recognition in the video arena as his "news just in" posting above shows.
I have been a fan of his reasonably priced unconventional tweaks because they work in my audio systems, and that thirty day money back guarantee is always there, just in case.
