I don't know, for myself, I try to ignore the hype--it's like buying a car or a boat or whatever, sure you can measure it, but the bottom line is (for me, not for the science based before hearing others) how does it sound!
All hype aside, try a Synergistic Orange fuse, no measurements, just use your ears. Decision based on hearing not measuring.
I use Synergistic products, and for me they work, but so do High Fidelity Cables products. The problem is that, just like housing sales, the market will bear the price, as long as the consumer will buy it at that price. So don't blame the seller, blame the buyer for hyper inflated prices. Look at the real estate market right now! High end audio is a luxury item--so is wine! I buy $6 bottles of wine, but when it comes to craft beer, I will spend $17 for a four pack! It's all relative (to your pocket book).
This is the most ridiculous hyperbole I've seen yet, and I use the cheaper High Fidelity products and they work! But Ric Schultz may have gone too far on this one, and only $599 for a little tiny bottle!
Follow Ups:
His ad copy has every element of the original story packed into it.
When did the original "k" in "Rick" go out of fashion? Not that there's anything wrong with "Ric".
The High Fidelity guy spells his name Rick. There is a Ric Schultz in audio......and that is me. When I want parts from Parts Connexion i have to make sure they get it to me and not him.....yes, they sent parts that I paid for to him once.I dropped the K in High School.....I thought it was more cool....he he. My Formal name is Eric....E---ric. Ricky Nelson was an Eric. Most people think I am a Rich or Richard.
I once talked to Rick Schultz for over an hour.....Ric Schultz to Rick Schultz. Fun conversation about his cables and tweaking and his life and spirituality.
Magnets do alter the sound. Some like the effects.

I too changed my name to Ric from Rick (not Eric) many years ago. Partly because my name is Ricardo, just seemed different. Of course I usually say "my name is Ric, but most people think I'm a dick!" Can't tell you how many times I have told people my name (Ric) and they call me Eric, oh well, better than being called Retardo.:)
'Magnets do alter the sound'
indeed, except for my piezo tweeters my speakers won't work without them!
very thin sounding without magnets ... no measurements though
purely subjective
