First, "the complete absence of any explanation or hypothesis for how this clock is supposed to work really troubles me." Yet look at all the TROUBLE Geoff got into for advancing an explanation of the IC. It's damned if you do, damned if you don't. Besides, consider the explanation offered in the 6moons review of the NESPA doohickey; it immediately came up for challenge, leaving the average reader as unsure as if there had been nothing at all.Then, "An 8% defective/failure rate in any other category of audio components would be an outrage. Does the Intelligent Chip propaganda talk about the possibility that if you buy it, it may not work?" We see here not the word "explanation", rather the word "propaganda" -- but let it pass, let it pass. You confuse the simple "not effective" with the more dire "defective/failure"; truth is, there are just some CDs and/or some players that are not susceptible to it. In my original, first-off-the-block report for Positive Feedback I even mentioned two times it misbehaved. One must realize that the only reason CD tweaks work is unskillful design and/or realization of the CD system. It has to be imagined that here and there certain designs have succeeded in overcoming the need for certain tweaks, although their makers may not have intended that, nor even have realized the effect.
Finally, the speech on hoaxes, while all true, will lead certain angry audiophiles (and you know who you are) to lump this in as one, without any further consideration.
