Well, I was unimpressed until I saw that it's effective with tube amplifiers. I'm in!

[Blackburn]

Those are key to make your amp "bloom". Easily the best spent money in your amp, right Bill?

"Crystal structures"
Oh my god there's one born every minute.
And these days they have too much disposable income.

[Zippy]

Wouldn't they be more effective if you filled the chassis with them?

"Semi-precious ballast"

[Ned]

The crystals and the cables prove there aARE suckers born every minute.

That goes against Mr. Dumble

But what about the marshmallows?

But what about the marshmallows?

I prefer to pass my cables between 2 bags of marshmallows. The trick is making sure the bar codes on the bags are orientated correctly so the bags are in phase with each other.

quote from their bullshit

"The original glass bottles for Brilliant Pebbles have been replaced by clear zip lock bags, which have a more linear response than glass."

subtext: glass packaging was too expensive so we switched to plastic, you cant tell the difference anyway

[KellyBass]

They claim that the crystals are carefully selected based on their effectiveness.

Damn! Why didn't I think of that technique! Sometimes it's just right there in front of you...and you can't see it...the solution always evades me for some reason.

Are those pebbles genuine NOS or rebadged current production?

[NickC]

Pebbles alone are only a half-measure towards good audio.

The other half of the equation is Bam Bam.

Machina Dynamica has been around for years. It's a both a spoof on audiophile lunacy and a scam, in that they apparently actually sell to whoever is idiotic enough to send them money. Brilliant. The website is a hoot, especially this:
