Isn't transmission fluid what you put in a gearbox? Perhaps not at £20,000 per litre...

may i ask what did you think of the demonstrated a/b test ?

Not a lot but, given the quality of the sound in the video, that's not surprising. And, I did use my DAC/amp and headphones I reserve for music, not the ones I normally use for games and YT videos.

In theory I can see how this works. But can you really hear the difference?

Maybe if you were in the room and if you listen very carefully but, I doubt it, a lot.

One of those cases where they have solved a problem that didn’t need solving

Only one y to find out.....

There are many manufacturers producing goods to potentially kill any nasty effects that you haven't got in your system in the first place.

i can not understand how the 2nd stage "coating" does not scratch off when the plugs are inserted (?)

 

[TrevC]

Wot a load of carp.

Wot a load of carp.

the idea of the product is to improve conductivity. 1st stage of treatment is to clean the plugs / sockets with the 2nd part a "coating" to improve conductivity.

its a similar idea to using deoxit cleaner then the deoxit gold enhancer.

is it nonsense then to clean / keep clean your interconnect / speaker cable plugs and sockets ?

Proably not but, you can do that with a microfibre cloth and a drop of isopropanol, 9 quid a litre from Amazon.

 

[TrevC]

You don't usually need jungle juice of any description for any plugs and sockets unless you dug them out of the ground or found them on a skip, in which case you buy some Servisol to squirt at them. Chord are full of it.

so this isopropanol does not damage gold, silver or rhodium plated plugs then ?

it seems chord are a bit late to the party as there seems to be a number of such products available :-

Cables | Cable, Contact Treatment & Cable Burn In | Contact Treatment - Analogue Seduction

Cables - Cable, Contact Treatment & Cable Burn In - Contact Treatment from Analogue Seduction

It doesn't. I've used it for years on everything electronic, even drilled a small hole in speaker relays to squirt it in to stop them being intermittent.

is this product a cheaper version of deoxit then ?

I don't know if Deoxit is as good or not. Servisol is cheap as well as tried and tested by me for more years than I care to remember!

It won't harm silver and as for gold and rhodium, they are chemically inert, so nothing touches them.

Sodium cyanide does a good job dissolving gold.

is this used in any contact "cleaners" ?!

 

[Friesiansam]

Sodium cyanide does a good job dissolving gold.

When something is dissolved, it is not modified chemically and can be recovered from the solvent. Mercury will also dissolve gold.

I'm not suggesting dissolving your plugs is a good idea.
