How about the totem "beak"? Apparently making well-reviewed speakers isn't profitable enough, so they have to make something to improve their margins.

Just watched that video now i'm curious to know if the three guys placed at centre left and right in the front row affected the sound quality in the room due to reflections and were they an intrinsic part of the resulting sound quality ?
Are you suggesting a listener, by the very act of listening, affects the heard reality?
That opens a new field of quantum phonics, called the listener effect.
I'm only surprised Synergistic Research hasn't addressed this heretofore unknown problem.
You don't know the Bourbon Effect?
You listen, sip from your Bourbon, then replace the glas at another position than it was before. Presto! Sound difference. You can even measure it as a change in the in-room response. I kid you not.

McIntosh too. They could be nasty little buggers to remove once they'd been on awhile - nothing to grab hold of.
Lol it was the " synergy " created by the similarities in their um hairstyles that i was considering as possibly having effects on the sound produced in the room and were they employees strategically placed there as their presence was a integral part of the overall quality . After all i'm sure many of us have purchased kit that sounded fantastic at a demo and once removed from the " perfect " environment sounded completely different... audiophile hairstyles theres a market maybe ... 🙂
Jacco, I'm pretty sure you would find it unerringly, even by smell alone! 😉

I'm indeed known for the grandeur of my tongue in/out cheek capabilities, at the least it will dust the table top for any spillings, any alcohol residu will do.
On the USB device its a couple of inches long....
As to the rest just reading up such people as H.Ott and H.Johnson (chap 5) regarding these claims... (including brushing up on conducted immunity), so far I am not convinced🙂
I was just thinking that a list of people who buy these types of products might be useful for those in the tweak industry. It might also be useful for anyone who sells any kind of "financial advice", as presumably those who buy things like quantum purifiers have more money than sense.
I was thinking earlier that a useful document for the "industry" would be a list of snakeoily ideas that are just a little too far-fetched to be believed by the target market. So the "industry" could calibrate their product offerings to be just barely on the believable side.
Though it seems lately that coming up with something at all that is too far-fetched might not be possible.😕
I happen to have an old Lincoln log toy set and some long wood dowels. Ya think I should build a Mpingo clone.
Oh forget it, someones already selling a clone and I hear their driving a Bentley.

Here's a funny (in a frightening sort of way, as governments actually bought these) snake oil device
