Hey Dan, why don't you have all that stuff in your signature?

Here we have the Acoustic Revive RCI-3 cable elevators. It is said the RCI-3 is one of the most unique cable elevators ever devised. Made from ebony and maple woods for excellent vibration damping and absorption, with special ores inside to absorb stray emi and rfi. Because of its combination of resonance control and noise absorption abilities, the RCI-3 will dramatically improve sound in a manner never before achieved. Noise is dramatically reduced and sound stage and imaging are more focused and three dimensional. The tone will become smoother as well. What audiophile could live without these for just $165.00 each. Lets see, I'll probably need twelve. Think I'll wait a little longer. Who knows, something better might turn up.

I wouldn't dismiss those "tweaks" until trying them personally. After all, many people swear cables don't make a difference, yet they actually do.

TommyC.......Please don't get me wrong. I am not dismissing anything. I have had my own personal skepticism blown out of the water a number of times. I am just documenting some tweaks with huge claims.

No worries. I do agree some manufacturers' claims are too good to be true.

Golly, all those unused RCA inputs. How on earth can I stop all the mechanical vibrations and sensitivity to EMI/RFI. Got it. I'll install the Acoustic Revive SIP-8F shorting plugs. It is said that shorting plugs are designed to keep unused inputs from becoming sources of noise, as those inputs are susceptable to receiving stray EMI/RFI noise as well as mechanical resonance. The Acoustic Revive SIP-8F are made of nonmagnetic gold plated brass and 2017 Duralumin. You get eight of the little magical buggers for a mere $275.00. I'm probably going to have to give this one a little more thought.

All you really need is a box of aluminum foil. $3.00

Hey, it improves reception and keeps the government from reading your thoughts!
