Another Audiofool ?

[bilko]

So, now mains filtering now affects the audio quality. Should we ask our grid supplier to use gold instead of that oxidised steel cable to connect the overhead lines ?

This isn't new, these daft morons are all over the place. He even makes it look semi-legitimate at first by using something resembling a proper mains filter circuit, but it still has limited usefulness outside of SMPS designs.

For the very best audio quality, you need a dedicated generator to power your equipment. The windings should be wound by hand from the finest high fidelity magnet wire ($5/ft) and the engine powered by gasoline cleaned by our special filters ($10 ea., replace daily). The dedicated circuit and the household mains wiring should not coexist in the same room, or harmful beat frequencies may develop between them, leading to a severe loss in high frequency response and a deep feeling of shame.

And no, gold wiring is not necessary, though the cables must be hermetically sealed to prevent corrosion; receptacles should have gold-plated contacts.

oh! not that rubbish. you need to run your hot and neutral on separate walls using our special gold lined silver platinum Germaniumdoped genitacly isolated and spliced bacteria grown in the pools of bird poop on the island Isola(virtual villagers).

Oh I love looking at audiophile equipment - for a good chuckle.

Especially the speaker cables -

Only $1,200 for 8 feet. 

Oh and check out the specs! Who doesn't love Cryogenically-treated, Laboratory-Grade UP-OCC (Ultra-Pure Ohno Continuous Cast) Copper!

some of the cable can be 10,000 per foot

I'll sell you some coat hangers large-gauge high performance audio cable for $256,000 per foot.

Hmmm ... is the copper impregnated with the proper amount of spin-oriented depleted uranium pairs?

[c4757p]

That's an extra $65,536.

[peterthenovice]

does it come with a one time use crystal aligner

[xrunner]

That's an extra $65,536.

Cool.

Money is no object provided the cable can efficiently send frequencies higher than any human can hear.

because you never know when you need to use your sound system cable for your microwave radio satellite

[c4757p]

No! No no no. Any use of these High Performance Cables at frequencies above 100 MHz can permanently entangle the atoms and destroy low frequency performance!

while dropping all dsl/cable internet speeds down to 65k.

I have to admire the humorous simplicity of the 710 cap.
