No intelligent life here captain. And don't forget quantum slipstream did come from Startrek physics.
Scott, the interesting thing is that the topology of the device you sketch here is identical to that of the Byebee. One wire in, one wire out.
So, at that level of abstraction there is no fundamental reason why a one wire in, one wire out device could not work, of course within certain parameters, and necessarily always accompanied by a degradation of the original signal.
However, intelligence and memory are required to add a fourth force to the RCL trinity , and I don't see a location for this in the Byebee. Or its proponents.
An obvious test is full strength, full audio spectrum white noise passing through a Bybee - this is where DiffMaker can be genuinely useful ...
I don't think that's it. Clearly, being a quantum device, it behaves much like
the delayed choice two slit experiment - You the observer make the decision
about what constitutes noise and the Bybee merely acts in anticipation of
your decision.

I know it's esoteric but decreasing the entropy of information is covered by the second law, it must use energy and have a net increase of entropy to the universe. Transmission of informatin in a lossy medium has an increase of entropy going backwards must have a penalty.

it was thought that the speed of the expanding universe at the edge was slowing down. Wrong!
Now they cant understand why it is doing just the opposite.
A confusion of perspective, perhaps?

Ya gotta get a grip, Richard - if you think about things logically, everything always makes sense - us humans have always been on top of the game, it's our destiny ... 😉

The speed of the expanding universe must continue to excelerate.
That is the basis of gravity.

The "anthropic" answer is that it makes the flat middle regions of the value of the fine structure constant and of the gravitational constant suitable for observers like us to exist. Not especially satisfying, I agree.

I love you folks. Although, as a disclaimer, it's very warm here and I just had some sauvignon blanc and pinot noir.
Cool, the limits of our understanding of the universe apply directly to audio. That explains everything.
Well, it might give us a hint, that being sure that we understand something is not precisely equivalent to understanding something ...
Well I would submit to tasting blind to distinguish the blanc from the noir. Just sayin'. Clone or no clone!
They start blind before the alcohol, and if the protocol properly adhered to, the participants preserve their sight and navigational skills.
I always believed that 'drinking yourself blind' meant something entirely different! What a concept! 😉
Who knows - maybe you are right regarding the Bybee´s 😀
I do not know if the Bybee´s should be called a quantum device or even if they work on a quantum level?
However using materials that are the least influenced by unwanted quantum effects, or using a "filter" that attenuates the unwanted quantum effects or actively controlling the quantum effects are very interesting as it is not only affecting audio performance.
BTW: Brent Butterworth just posted in FB and elsewhere that loudspeaker cables really do make a measurable difference, anticipating an outcry of dissent. My comment was that it has NEVER been about them not making a difference --- but that when they do, the differences can be accounted for by standard electromagnetic theory. Or not. Even the proponents of bizarre physics should at least understand, and carefully account for, the basic EM. After that, as the preacher says to Sheriff Bart in Blazing Saddles, you're on your own.
