RE: Thanks for keeping me honest

Ironically, it was the supercilious tone in the CH post you allude to that set me off on this visit to the asylum. Had CH been a little less snide, you folks would not have heard from me.

You say: "If you're at all familiar with instrumentation techniques (your latest post suggests you're not)"

Guilty as charged! I have no idea what on earth you mean by "instrumentation techniques." I freely admit I am not familiar with whatever it is you are talking about. Could you please go back and lay out a bit of background so I have some idea what "instrumentation" you are talking about, what the techniques are that apply to them, and what that has to do with whatever point you are making and that I'm missing?

I'm sorry you dislike my presence so much, but truly, I'm here to learn. Telling me to put wooden blocks under wires or components because you claim it "improves" the listening experience doesn't teach me anything. Telling me why I should do that would not only teach me something, but may teach other inmates as well.

I also have to point out that if you had read CH's posts more carefully, you would have noticed that he specifically made the claim that it was the difference in material that made the difference in the sound with regard to the wood blocks he is touting:

"The Jenga blocks will give about 1/2 to 2/3 the sonic benefits of the Myrtle Wood blocks sold by Ayre."

Now perhaps there is a hidden configuration of Jenga blocks that CH is coyly concealing from us that would match the alleged performance of his myrtle blocks, but it seems to me CH is saying his wood is special and superior.

Which brings us back to my original question: if it is the non conductive wood itself bringing about the changes, how on earth does the wood do that?
