Ziplex Resonators...really? $2,600, really?

[jmillerdoc]

I love the idea of a magnet that clamps around the tube to "center" the electron flow...this could be easy to make and as far as I know, doesnt exist at the moment....why not a magnetized tube damper made from, of course, rare earth magnets (standard ceramic types might impart a haze to the image).

I am going to build a pair for my gain stage of my 300B, withn a few days I will scientifically notate my objective subjective findings here for the scientifically minded folk around here.

I can already tell this will work....

Well,

Its at your own risk..I guess it could magnetize the anode plate of a tube and could stuff it...it will move(push/pull) the electron flow...so this is probably why you haven't seen one......(I was joking!)

I'm emotionally confused. I don't know whether I should be angry at the stupidity of gullible man, angry at the loose morals of purveyors of BS who profit from it, or impressed by it all. Either way it's damn funny. Every time one of these scams surfaces I'm surprised again; maybe I'm the stupid one.

How can people with skills to make enough disposable money to afford such trinkets be parted from it so easily?

...and that review is criminal.

 

[kelticwizard]

How about some kind of bass concentrator built to the same proportions as the pyramid at Cheops?

No, it should be alnico.

 

[wwenze]

Well, if you don't get angry at the wine industry, you shouldn't be at the "audiophile" industry. Or should I say "audio-"tech"-phile" industry.

 

[jmillerdoc]

Ok, alnico it is....

 

[revboden]

I think the collective idea should include Pyramids. Maybe filled with Quartz or whatever rock rich hippys think does something currently.

On topic:
I still can't fathom why someone would want a multi harmonic bell in the listening room. It's beyond bone-headed.

 

[revboden]

I've got it!!!. A crystal pyramid harmonizer filled with quarts sand to damp unwanted resonances. (Patent pending )

 

[revboden]

You could make a pyramid shaped one and make it rest on top of the tubes. You know, to focus the energies.

The positive side of the magnet should point down to increase the "positive" energy of the music.

I'm go'in to hell for that one.

 

[kelticwizard]

Don't forget to include on the webpage that to work properly, the sides of the harmonizer must directly face north, south, east and west.

 

[adason]

just make sure its on the market before the end of the world...

There is so much here (I mean for fodder, not of substance). I'm most amazed that a major manufacturer did this with the AKDL1, and it's NOT who you might expect, like Monster or Bose, but someone "respected." The Amazon reviews are true classics.

Nope, fail.
Anything filled with sand actually will damp resonances. "Works as advertised" is against the rules.

Ok, i got it...make a pyramid shaped cage with quartz and rare earth magnets that fits over the entire amp, record player, CDP, etc...

Truly epic... Amazon.com: Customer Reviews: Denon AKDL1 Dedicated Link Cable

 

[DF96]

We need to recruit some of those reviewers to write the sales blurb for our product.

BTW do you think someone in Denon was taking the p**s? Was it an April 1st joke which accidentally made it into production?

I cant stop laughing......those reviews saved my day. These "reviewers" are truly brilliant with comedic play....

 

[benb]

Be sure to click on "Most Helpful First" and read the one titled "I don't have much time." I can only suspect it was written by Michael Crichton shortly before his untimely disappearance.

Absolutely brilliant,
