A new category for "accessories" reviews in WHF? Of course, obviously, evidently, this should lead any sane person who might still be unsure to feel relaxed about questioning 90% of the claims made by cable manufacturers and their more extreme customers. Placebo anyone?
"Just noticed that if I put 24ct gold rings around each of the spikes of my speakers, the sound stage opens up, bass becomes deeper and more controlled, and midrange becomes much clearer. The best upgrade ever. Improvements are so obvious that everybody notices, even my wife and the little spider on the top right corner of my ceiling. Pure gold placed in this way has been proven to impact sound propagation in a very audible way. Nay sayers might again argue that no lab instrument has ever measured such impact, me and my spider know perfectly well they are wrong. Tried cheaper silver and some platinum rings, but they increase treble too much...."
Also wearing a pink silk headband and purple wellies brings out details in all good recordings.
