I do think the guy has a real talent for product names. I mean, how do you come up with FROG JUMP IN WATER SOUND TWEAK USING ORDINARY WATER or TELEPORTATION TWEAK LONG DISTANCE SYSTEM UPGRADE?
Excuse me, I need to go tape some rocks to my cables...
Thanks for this. I had no idea...

Don't they know that the plastic they have the rocks in will mess up their transendence or what not?
I really do believe though that the guys selling this are damn rich. You can't make more money than with stupidity of people.
I think the site is actually a spoof on some of the (very real) audiophile nuttiness that predated it. It has a very Andy Kaufmanesque feel to it.
It does seem to be an ongoing experiment, however. If you read the guy on forums, he doesn't seem to break character, but it does seem like many around him get the joke. Of course, there are those who don't get it and ardently defend his products. It would be a bit funnier to me if he wasn't actually selling the products and taking advantage of the people that he is making fun of, but oh well....
I agree; its most likely a p*ss take.
I love that the image of the pebbles attached to cables shows a tiled floor.
Probably one of the most reflective surfaces you could choose for an 'audiophile' listening environment.
I would love to see an interview with the guy who is selling these ;D
You need that $1000 iec cable to ensure the flow of electrons from the wall outlet are linear.
What can we say... A fool and his money are soon parted.
I was going with the parody until I clicked on a buy button and it actually took me to PayPal. Still, it's got to be a joke, right? Most of the things look like he saw them on the side of the road and then he made up a marketing story for them.
WTF would happen if you taped some of those magic pebbles to a genuine Klon? :o
Theoretical discussion only, please don't actually try this for the love of God.
Traveling to the TN mountains, pulled off at a Rest Area and found a Gold Mine!!!!(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/06/27/3yve8yna.jpg)

Looking more closely at the cryogenically treated Baby Promethean Mini Isolators, it appears they also have the ability to reverse the force of gravity, but it's only a localized effect. If they are the next room, not so much...
Y'all are making me miss TN. I spent a year at Belmont in Nashville back in the day. I would love to go back for a visit.
I went to summer camp out there on the Cumberland plateau and miss that area.
