How little you know, Jan.
A perfect example in manners and politeness, just because a few have painted you as the badly done to, there is no need to push it. if you cant take, don't give.
It would be very educational for those impressed by people with academic credentials, to see how the latter actually behave towards others at times when they disagree with their views ... 🙂
Another jumping on the band wagon, read my previous post.
Like the caps, it shown the joke side of Audiophile design, it caters to every silly belief while ignoring sensible product design...

feel free to dissect this lot of bollocks...
Heres a sample if you can't be bothered following the link: "PTFE is an excellent dielectric, canceling out electromagnetic inteference (EMI) from external sources"
Have your airsick bag handy - you may need it.

On this and the other thread it was pointed out that both sides were guilty of this to some extent, less bias old chap...
As to negativity, total lack of any reasonable explanation of the hows and whys of the mechanisms involved could be construed as negativity...
Hand waving whilst chanting magical invocations is not science.

Some basic spelling would help in the marketing blurb...
As to these new properties of PTFE, interesting🙂

Just waiting for audio applications of plasma orbital expansion theory.

I will acknowledge that the "other side" let themselves down, by harking to mysterious, unfathomable elements. T'would be far better that they say, "Here is something, it works for us, we're not sure why, try it and see what it does for you ...".As to negativity, total lack of any reasonable explanation of the hows and whys of the mechanisms involved could be construed as negativity...

The best lies have a grain of truth in them. At least, this may be a half decent product. Maybe even as good as a length of Belden 16 Ga CL-2 twisted pair. (Dollar a foot)

I cant, I will only use components that follow the physics of this universe, also I would be tarring me soul.😉
Some snake oil specifically for diy:
Studio Zèy
Creative, I'll give him that. Not only does he have one product, he has a whole WEB site full of them.
My offers of tooth-pick pyramids never caught on.( Only $1987.99) Hmmm, maybe the materials were not "purified" enough.
I guess I should set up a new WEB site. Here is my brand name:
Ghargh je Oil
All products will emphasize what they do not do, leaving that they do anything to be up to the consumer. Lots of true statements, like problems with EMI, ESD, DF etc. Links to factual references in WIKI. A few equations thrown in to make it look very scientific.
Of course, weekly sales of last least 20% discounts and warnings of low inventory. Free shipping of course. And if you buy now, I throw in something else worth well over $1000. Just like the makeup adds on TV.
Satisfaction guaranteed. (Mine. When I cash your check I guarantee I'll be satisfied)
You know, this could be a fun project for a college project in any number of subjects.
......offers of tooth-pick pyramids never caught on.........
Yeah the pyramids. No one as yet has described the incredible improvement in a power amp when suspended at the 1/3 rd point inside the pyramid. It's only required to sell a pyramid and stand ( for the amp ) that is of suitable size ! Remember that the pyramids were originally pointed towards Orion which 'sent back' energy waves. Pyramids off the direct line of sight would benefit to a lesser degree.....but would still benefit !
This one doesn't need much explanation. The God's used the energy beams. So it's already been proved that it's useful ! Anyone......$ 999.99 only. 😀
wish i could show you what happens in Greek forums where scientists with deep knowledge of electronics and sound have to argue with people and the argument of the other side is : ""i ve been listening to this amplifier cable or so and it really plays supreme ""
At least we got our shelves a very live thread !! i like that ..
Kind regards

Some claim that 'skinning' (removing the heatshrink label) changes the sound of electros.
In the wood electro blog, after removing the aluminium can, silk cloth is wrapped around the 'naked' electro before potting in the wooden enclosure.
The silk is likely one cause of subjective change.
The wood would also 'effect' the subjective sound, and the species of wood would also be important.

The original heatshrink will nicely compress the cap and help dampen any mechanical resonances. Removing it could change the sound, but unlikely to be for the better. Silk cloth is unlikely to wrap as tightly, and wood nicely resonates - which is why it used for making musical instruments. The last thing I want is my caps acting like instruments!
