Tweak you gotta try. Post your results...

Well I read some reviews about the new High Fidelity cables that were designed by the former owner of Virtual Dynamics. They seem to be using magnets as their claim to fame in their design.

I happened to have some rod type axially magnets that were about 3/8" in diameter and about 1" long. I installed 2 of them near the end of my speaker cables near the speakers. 2 sets are needed for each speaker wire left and right).They are installed so that the magnetism is pulling through the cable.

It is quite interesting, but I would like some others to try this and share their opinions before I comment.

I also added a set at the Amp end.These magnets cost about $3.39 each and you will need at least 4 of them or 8 if you want to try them also at the Amp end.

I bought mine from http://www.amazingmagnets.com/show-fractional-r1000c.aspx

Make sure you select USPS for about $4.95 shipping otherwise you will end up paying for UPS at about $13 for shipping.

Iso,

We have lots of magnets on fridge in kitchen adjacent to my family room with smaller system. Now I know why that sounds so good! I will be afraid to move them! :^)

Mapman, I can certainly understand that Nervous Nellies just aren't going to be able to scramble on board the Machina Dynamica train. No skin off my nose, I'm not trying to set the world on fire, just trying to start a flame in a few hearts. Meanwhile, I'm giving serious consideration to elevating you to Associate Troll.

I take that to mean challenging your nonsense is off topic and makes me a troll?

How much does the job pay?

Don't hold your breath. I'm still waiting for a reply regarding my recruitment on another thread. Something about 'Associate Shill'. I took it to be a timely confession. Not surprisingly on topic.
