    "Working" software has only unobserved bugs. (Parroty Error: Pieces of Nine! Pieces of Nine!)
    Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself

    Frankly, I’d just buy a brick and use the other £3749.50 to get myself a guitar or a holiday.

    Looking around that site, I note with interest the various Nordost Odin 2 cables..... Makes the LP-clamp-thingy look rather cheap.....

    "The vibration generated by the diamond stylus in the vinyl groove as well as inducing an electro flux through the phono cartridge also excites the ebony molecules causing it to resonate. This in turn is fed back through the stylus and is reproduced as an expanded sound staging, enhanced separation, sharpened focus and enriched tonal balance of the music."

    I know nothing about audio engineering so I can't comment on whether or not this is bollocks. But I know enough about English to see that the first sentence has a big problem. There are four singular noun phrases that are potentially the referent of "it", so my question is, what the fuck is "it" that is resonating?

    Well, I just put 20 of them in the basket on their site.  I opted for UK 13A plugs at one end and the "Holoplug 20A" connector on the other and I wanted them all to be 5m long.

    Now.... let me get my credit card....  that's going to be just over half a million quid.  £521,599.99 to be exact.

    OH ! - and I nearly forgot my speaker cables !!  A 4m pair - only £92,820.00 !!
    Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine.

    The 'Statement' turntable. In short, the statement is: "I am a gullible rich dick"
    The natural wood version is £9500 cheaper. What sort of black lacquer costs £9500? Presumably it’s made of ground up particles of unicorn hoof and applied in individual atoms by pixies. I do wonder how many of these things they’ve actually sold?

    Yes. Yes it is bollocks.

    Only works if you have a Sukhavati power cable starting at £20,000 for 1 metre though.

  • I agree with all the mockery above.  What a load of bollox !!
    However, I run a Michell Gyrodec turntable and I have the Michell turntable clamp.  As the name suggests, it clamps the lp to the turntable.  Playing records sounds better with than without, no doubt.  Cost me about 20 quid I think.

    The audio industry is rife with snake oil, and by extension the guitar industry ;-) ears are unreliable and unconscious bias is unshakeable, meaning that every single person is essentially a sitting duck for this shit
