I can only hope these guys take an interest in speaker wires. I'm already stockpiling padding for my jaw when it drops.
I always enjoy this stuff, the incredible descriptions that often turn up in the speechless reviewers lack of understanding how to best describe such a product without giving the game away, and the brazen prices.
I certainly have no sympathy for anyone considering buying this insult to intelligence and reason, so my enjoyment shifted into a higher gear when the words "particle accelerator " were dropped. I was looking for outrageousness, and had found my first clue, if one disregards the price, of course.
I considered that the only possible technology they might command to fit that "particle accelerator" description would be vacuum coating, and later on , as they described the process, found my assumption was correct.
MY brother used to have a vacuum coating machine, useful for guys wishing precision reflective surfaces on optics. It is a chamber with a small place on top to insert a coated electrode, and then the atmosphere is removed via a vacuum pump.
Once the chamber is cleared, the electrode inside is electrically energized , which turns the electrode coating into a gas, which replaces the absent atmosphere, which then ,when the vacuum is removed coats everything inside the chamber with whatever metal was on the electrode with an even coating , I think it one molecule thick, but forget , could be a particle, it is a characteristic of the gas, the physical process, if you are curious to look it up.
All the particle acceleration during vapor coating is done by gravity, but I guess the initial electrical energy must do something energetic, because the coating is vaporized instantly. Introducing argon into the chamber is probably a way to limit the vacuum required, which is equipment taxing at real high levels, and probably is not needed for this type of work.
I was looking to fault a certain vague level of criminality or fraud in presenting such an outrageous product, but found none, from the review. Just an offer of product for sale and the function, it actually works, but I was looking.
Now I just have to figure out what part of my record is unstable during play before I sign up.
Of course, during my studies, I will be uncovering many secrets of audio magic. I can determine if this product is suitable for your system , once I set up my lab, for a flat audio advice fee of $500.
Of course, for some this level of assurance is not obtainable , but , for the select few , think of the money you save if your system is not compatible for this product. Plus the $500 is not wasted, it can be rolled over into my new monthly danish audio product advice service @$50 a month, if you are selected after strenuous vetting for our exclusive and limited service.
