Crystal Technology half way down...
Bybee Technologies | Our Technology

As soon as I see the words 'quantum' and 'crystal' I switch off. In over 50 years of listening to hi-fi, I have seen all the wierd and wonderful ways of parting people from their money and have never failed to be amazed at human stupidity.

Mind you, I have never failed to be surprised at that anyway.

From the web page:
In this magnetic field, the polarity of all electrons and protons are altered

Sounds like Mr. Bybee needs a Nobel Prize for Quantum Mechanics, he has apparently figured out how to transform ordinary matter into anti-matter. Matter and anti-matter coming into contact with each other...what could go wrong? Amiright? 😉

It's probably there somewhere on this thread, but there are dummy banana plugs that are meant to be plugged into unused speaker-out binding posts to prevent the output signal from escaping into space. Apparently, the escaped signal interferes with line-level cables, etc., so it needs to be confined to the interior of the amp cabinet.

Of course, the premium ones are gold- or rhodium-plated to ensure that the signal is safely confined. Plain old nickel or tin on brass won't cut it, and it has to be non-magnetic.
