Re: Audiophoolery?
Does anyone know of any university offering a doctorate in 'Magnetic Engineering'?
If there isn't, then it's impossible to get one up on Rick.
I thought he was following the teachings of P T Barnum.
If we follow the high-end dictum that the source is most important, then people had better upgrade their house wiring and the national grid before buying that IEC cable. We'll know if someone does this by Mr Schultz appearing at top of the Forbes list.
I liked the quantum electrical spin bit. It sits nicely with the rest of the hokum. I wonder if he's holding quantum magnetic monopoles in reserve for a future product. For safety reasons, these will have to only come packaged as matched complementary pairs, I guess.
It might be fun to collect truly hokey audio adverts, frame them and put them in your listening room. These claims have reached the level of an art form. I've seen collections of handbills for doubtful medicines and electrical/medical quack machinery.
