Rich! Bybees!?!!?! Maybe they do have some sonic effect, but the whole explanation is just complete and utter nonsense! Quantum noise, room temp superconductivity, sorting "bad" from "good" electrons, polished with the finest snake oil! The twisting of science to suck in gullible audiosheep just is really starting to offend me. If Jack Bybee really could produce a material that allows electrons to flow "unimpeded", he would be making gazillion$ from the power companies. Anyone with any training in noise theory KNOWS that noise can not be reduced in a signal chain. The best you can do is not add (much) more.

  I just look at them as filters.... I don't understand how they work, but I don't think Jack Bybee has ever fully truely disclosed how they work and the principles under which they operate (maybe purposely... all the talk I originally heard ablout these years ago was that they were based on classified technology).

  Now, you want to try my Intelligent Chip! :-) :-)

    Intelligent Chip?! Yeah, I ate a bag of those last week; their crunch sounded more transparent than when I didn't chew.

    But seriously, I know a fellow that bought one. But afterwards using it he felt stupid, not intelligent...

      Sometime yo need to be open to the possiblity..... I've spent allot more than $20 on various things in my life on things you just have to try...For example certain foods do nothing for me... not that I dislike them and hate the tatse, but I taste nothing satisfying... but at least I can say I've tried it. Sometimes you win, sometime you loose.

        Indeed I was probably too flipant while just trying to be funny. If the thing is just $20 and some folks are honestly hearing things (good or bad), then in fact I would like to try it. I've certainly spent a WHOLE LOT more on cold-tempering (cryogenics) of many pounds of custom AC wire and breakers/bus-bars before installing it all into the walls of my new listening studio. And I have a pretty sizeable collection of failed audio goodies (amased over 2 decades), so I'm obviously not above throwing money away in pusuit of musical bliss.
