Steve, sometimes you're right on and sometimes you just like screwing with people because you got some strange DNA in that braain of yours.... ok, like DUH... anybody with have a frontal lobe knows it isn't going to sound the same because DUH... the resonant structure is not the same... however, that doesn't mean that there will be NO resonances.... simply that they will be shifted, some frequencies efficiently turned into heat, some not... even a man as, ummm... broadminded and errr... flexibly imaginative as your esteemed self hopefully realizes that..but here goes nuttin'....
Then what was the point of removing the contacts and clinking them together? Everything with mass has properties of mechanical resonance.
In any case, the questions still stand. How exactly will those mechanical resonances and the less conductive brass manifest themselves in a way which would have an impact on the signal?
I'm not laying out Kant's Categorical Imperative here, all I'm saying is that I'm willing to bust a few expensive receptacles and hear the result... tres empiricist.... if it sucks... so it sucks... but we'll be that much the wiser... and if it blows one right out of the park, then everybody learns something on my dime and my time...
But what's actually learned beyond the fact that subjectively you may or may not prefer the sound with the outlets filled with goop?
And if all you care about is the subjective result, what was the point of postulating your theory regarding mechanical resonances and conductivity?
Man... if we had you on the case instead of Thomas Edison we'd still be burning whale oil lamps and treating syphilis with mercury salts...
No, that's where your line of thinking gets us.
You "theorize" that the patient is ill because he has "bad blood." So you open a vein and relieve him of a couple of pints. The patient manages to recover. Ergo, it must have been due to relieving them of the "bad blood."
Of course if they die, well, then it's just "God's will."
