Putting foil on your CDs is really just a waste of perfectly good foil that could be used to preserve food for a while. Now, one can argue that putting foil on something will make you think it will sound better. I personally don't like to trick myself into believing something sounds good, but YMMV.

And just when this was getting interesting again....... who's next on the "I haven't tried it but I'll slag it rota"?

Remember those bracelets you had as kids, made of plastic that would stay straight until you snapped them against your wrist (so they'd curl around your wrist)? I forget what they're called. Anyway, I remember owning at least one coated with none other than RAINBOW FOIL. If I had had Peter Belt's brilliant genius guiding me as a young child, surely the properties of the rainbow foil snappy bracelet would have granted me a great many more successes than I've already experienced. I'd be a lottery winner, I bet.

Actually, I'm really happy right now. Everything in my life is going extremely well. Probably because I was smart enough to wear a rainbow foil bracelet fifteen years ago.

Chris, just try to imagine how fantastic things would have been today if you had worn not only one one, but TWO of those bracelets - one for each wrist!!!

Something to regret for the rest of your life!

I did not posess such a bracelet... poor me.

 

[marios_mar]

c'mon hirsch I am waiting. I cant find the forum rules somewhere to read. Please explain.

You also didnt tell me Pink where to get free samples.

Double Blind Test. For determining which cable sounds better, the subject wouldn't know which cable is being used and administrator does not know which cables should sound better. I'm no scientist, so there are certainly better explanations available, but that one seems right to me (as it would pertain to a cable test, that is.)

That sounds about right, It tells you more about DBT at http://skepdic.com/control.html

To the best of my ability, I was answering Marios's question. Next I was going to try to get him some links if my explanation was not sufficient.

As to the point of this thread, would you please explain it to me? I'm serious. What's the point?

He was probably talking about Rodbac, or perhaps me. Obviously you aren't mocking anyone, you actually believe this stuff works...

Now, he may have believed that you would have to be crazy to believe this stuff works, and therefore this thread is a huge game you are playing to show just how dumb some audiophiles can be. If that's the case, then I applaud you, as this thread is a shining example that I'm sure I will link to again at some point in the future when I need to prove just how sheeplike audiophiles can become.

Now, would you mind telling me, seriously, what the point is with this thread?

Errm, hopefully not emotion at the expense of reason... the two can coexist just fine, they aren't at war with each other.
