These products are not just hokum, they are *expensive* hokum. For example: http://www.tnt-audio.com/accessories/c37_e.html This lacquer sells for $300 for 50ml. Other things I've encountered where $500 wooden volume knobs. They are expensive, and they are lies. Only through knowledge of real science and real electronics can you *actually* build a good stereo system. These humbugs just serve to distract and confuse people. -- Paul Anderson VE6HOP wackyvorlon@gmail.com http://www.oldschoolhacker.com "May the electromotive force be with you." -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
