Date: 2004-07-14 13:06:34 PSTIf you think that's funny read the review of the screw on feet for the
bottoms of speaker cabinets that creates "a more inviting soundstage"
and provides "greater clarity and separation of voices and instruments,
with more apparent space around each"!http://www.audiophilia.com/hardware/ma10.htm

If this were presented without source info, I would suspect that it had
come from the Shouts and Murmurs page in The New Yorker, which sometimes
has some great parodies. Incidentally, do they supply plugs to replace
the old, plain high-temperature-shaped ones on the ends of your power
cords? I would think that this would be equally important, but perhaps
not so valuable as those green markers to use on CDs. That brings up
another question--have these folks ever done a study on the relative
merits of marking the CD edges with a clockwise vs counter-clockwise
motion. Inquiring minds need to know.

"After 50 seconds of track one have elapsed, there is a very short pause,
followed by the striking of a wood block. If one listens carefully one can
hear musicians turning pages of sheet music. It is very easy to miss this
subtle detail unless one has a highly resolved stereo system."with greater resolution, you may be able to hear bodily functions...send 'em
back to R&D...
