Looking through the testimonials page I came upon this nugget, the guy breaks in his product with his projector, and as we are quoting testimonials as facts...
Finally let us look in detail at th
Music is AC, the electrons in the Bybee devices never travel through it but jiggle in place, so please explain HOW it can do what is claimed... any answers...
And finally the gentleman who made the above statement just happens to be the President and Board member of...
Westside Music & Cinema
So no affiliation to high end audio....
Now some may smell a rat here, but I am sure there is an innocent logical explanation to all this?
Me I just smell the roses growing luxuriously in all this fertiliser....

Please do! I bet it full of mayonnaise.
I'd like to know more about that guy's "background in physics". I have absolutely no background in physics, but a few seconds with google was enough for me to learn that "quantum noise" has nothing to do with "electrons bumping into atoms" whatsoever.
It's all about quantum uncertainty.
Quantum noise only becomes prominent when dealing with signals that are small enough for the laws of quantum mechanics to start playing a role. Hi-fi audio signals are nowhere near that small. They manipulate a huge amount of electrons, which can be seen as an equally huge amount of "coin flips". In other words: The uncertainty of a hi-fi audio signal is so low, that the quantum noise is practically zero. There's no need to "purify" it.
Besides, a real attempt to "purify" quantum noise would require breaking the laws of quantum mechanics...
I'm sure all the world's physicists are waiting with bated breath for the announcement that peer-reviewed experiments have now shown that there are "two types of electrons in the world". Conventional theory is that there is only one type of electron, and all such electrons are indistinguishable. How could we have got it so wrong?
There are only two possible reasons for someone to claim two types of electrons:
1. he doesn't know much about physics
or
2. he hopes his readers don't know much about physics
I am not in a position to judge which is the correct explanation here.

What depresses me is that people fall for this stuff, and criticize us for laughing at it. That tells me that we are completely failing in our science teaching in school and college. It also demonstrates that in our society earning ability is very poorly correlated with education and wisdom.
John Wheeler may be right that there even is just one single electron in the whole universe, moving up and down space-time.
Or 3 He is president of a company supplying bespoke hi-fi and a part of the scam...
Like the mayonnaise quote
The new scam in hi end audio is crystals and crystal technology it seems quite a few are jumping on the bandwagon J.Bybee included
There has to be a least two, from recent revelations; a smooth cool electron that can move through time and space with the minimum of hassle (and a personnel friend of anyone who buys into this mush) and the electron equivalent of the boozed up guy staggering home colliding with every crystal lattice junction it can find, this is obviously the dark electron that has only so far been discovered by those that understand the world of audiophile physics.
Can't think of many in physics or chemistry (presumably not in medicine, either, but I'm less familiar with that). Did I miss some BS artists in the science prizes or is the BS confined to the politically-oriented awards?
Someone may be very knowledgeable in one small aspect, and deservedly be awarded for it.
Doesn't imply any 'wisdom' in the larger picture or other fields.
Good example is the current Euro crisis, several nobel guys in economics ventilating their individual opinions.
If one of them is right, the others can only be BS artists.
Same same for 'Professors'.
Our astronaut and professor, with a PhD in physics on gamma radiation.
RIP, but I can't think of anything more pathetic to ruin one's credibility.

Guy in HiFi shop (been in HiFi for 45yrs) tried to sell me some 'Monster type' speaker wires, 256 strand Mono Crystal Copper and waved a demo pair at me with the words:
"Don't forget, these are directional!"
"Ahhh, do you have a sticky label and a pen"
"Yes, one moment...."
I peeled label off backing, folded it round one wire end and wrote...
"Insert this end in ***" and handed them back with a cheery "They are now!"
This made some thing pop into my head while typing:
If hifi cables can be directional, this means all cable is directional - do electricians know which end is In and Out on a spool of 2.5sq/mm twin and earth?
How do I check?
Maybe thats why my base (< joke) is slow... electrons are not 'powerful' enough to swim wrong way in directional wire.
Gawds, what happens if EVERY bit of copper is orientated incorrectly in the audio chain?
I would not count economics as a science based subject, from my brief encounter with it when I was in the 6th form, it has no hard rules, you make them up as you go along and I could never work out where the baseline was, it seemed to be floating and depended on all the other factors... gave it up and did physics it was easier to understand
The bloke means isolation transformer with grounded center tapped 120V secondary.
Nothing extraordinary about that.

Cleaning out my uncle's estate -- I have a number of 45's used to teach cardiologists and internists -- you can have them if you want to practice on yourself.
AC is NOT +/-, any actual physicist (or first year electronics tech, for that matter) would know that and you should too. And no, it's not just semantics.
What that CHARLATIAN said is completely wrong, don't try to defend him, your credibility will suffer.
