Apologies in advance if this has been posted in the past.

Yea thats sickening:barf: You could make a nice pair ouy of rosewood for $50.00. Most tweaks are snob appeal for the high end market. Yes their is
some good tweaks also.

From a KNOB?? :blink: Sheesh...

Widget - you should easily be able to produce the finest in that genre - 'sell more than one or two a day and you could retire in short order! :p

Wouldn't it be nice. If only it was that easy... I think you have to be delusional or a crook to pull it off though.:(

Of course, if I were to produce high end wooden knobs, I could say with all sincerity, that these knobs will in no way degrade the sound of your system.;)

Maybe its time to upgrade my old equalizers, with 40 knobs each. $38 800. :eek:


Should give a real audible improvement, don't you think.

But it provides Good Vibrations, doesnt let those bad vibrations into the signal path:barf:

I like the tweeters that do nothing. 400 a pair and they operate at 1 Ghz. Great for cell phone antennas.

Batteries not included.

Knobs selling...what else "Knobs"

Forget the knobs....

Gotta get some of that C37 lacquer....
I figure 30 gallons of it will do for coating the inside of our house where we listen.... at least 2 or 3 coats worth.
Then off to the car..... think of how much better it will sound with the seats, dash and floor all coated with C37.....
Never mind the crunch when sitting down....That just adds to the experience.

Actually thinking about it.... doing the house and car and not even waiting for the lacquer to be totally dry..... just about anything will sound better.... even before turning on the music.... : )

Well, that worked pretty well, didn't it!

Glad a few of you enjoyed it.
