RE: BB pellet tweak

Thanks Kona, you're a legend! Thanks to you I was able to find the Absolute Sound article. I assumed it was Stereophile since it was my go to audio mag as Absolute Sound wasn't as available in Australia all those years ago.

Here's a link to part two of the series that described the BB pellet tweak. I was impressed with how much effort the authors went to limit subjectivity in evaluating performance improvements. You were right about zinc-coated BBs being critical. Copper BBs made the sound worse through what they proposed was an "inverse faraday effect".
