Once again, apparently people will pay anything for status.

Just like people here who would pay $1000 for a McIntosh amp simply b/c it says "mcIntosh" on it, which thread I've been replying in...

This shit always cracks me up.

Here's one that Jim J sent me a while back.

http://www.positive-feedback.com/Issue22/isoclean.htm

For those of you too lazy to read, it's an article about some "audiophile" $25 AGU fuses that, apparently, sound better when they are inserted in a certain direction. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

Moral of the story: there's too may ignorant rich jackasses with more money than common sense.

My favorite line from the article:

"In my system, the change from stock fuses to Isoclean fuses was absolutely positive. The Isoclean mostly reduced distortion and grunge while tightening up imaging and improving the sense of placement. This kind of upgrade is so right that you accept the change as part of the music within a few minutes. It's very much like the benefit offered by a fine aftermarket power cord, but in miniature. "

He continues on by saying that the sound improved as the fuses, and I quote, "settled in". //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif
