I think "Dieter" has been sniffing too much of his C37 lacquer.

Anyone who buys those will be subject to incessant mocking from me. That's one of the dumbest things I've ever read.

I read the offering as a spoof, not a real product. Then again, I'm not a real hard-core audiophile so maybe it was meant to be serious... and everything ELSE they sold looked like real audiophile stuff. Cult resistors, matched capacitors, speaker wire hand-rolled by virgins... the usual stuff.

I REALLY don't think it's a joke. That site is scawy.

The Review: Indeed quite a farce, but keep in mind, not ALL reviews are bad, hometheaterhifi.com has some excellent stuff, and Audioholics can be quite nice.... Thank god we have Alan on our side
RAM: Now assuming we're talking about the same company, they do make some nice stuff apparently, as they've been approved as a AV Science Affiliate and that's not an easy list to get on.
Cheers,

It may not be an easy list to get on, but wooden knobs on a volume control and an amp (that cost $6000!!!) do not good science make.

Sure it does. It answers the question "How big can you make your wallet when all you have is .75 cents worth of wood, a lathe, and 15 minutes of free time."
