A snip for all those people on furlough

How much for a SARS-CoV-2 filtered lead? Removes all 5G signals.

(Pedant, what do you mean 5G comes over the air not through wire?)

Faithfully reproduces all the mains-born crap right at the power inlet of your amp.

"The silences between musical phrases are inky black, highlighting the very low noise floor with the Eos dd cable installed." Is this an LP he's talking about - or has he mistakenly been playing a CD? ;-)

Probably got the squelch level set too high.

How's about ?107.78 for a pair of shoelaces from a shop in Brighton ?

More than 10 available so there's no mad rush.

Or if you really want to push the boat out there are ?117 boot laces from Australia (postage ?1.94)

"The whole construction is then sheathed in a royal blue PVC sleeve."

So it's really 230v "arctic" flex.

Come on that has to be a load of tosh. I'd sooner buy a protected cable with a surge protector or something. What I used to find was any kind of screened cable on an input, say cart or microphone etc, could very easily go microphonic with age as the plastic hardened inside, but mains leads? I mean, put a scope on the mains or even a wireless intercom and listen to the crud on them these days. Brian

Do they throw in a £100 set of unidirectional speaker wires, where the wire has all been drawn one way to reduce the noise of electrons bumping around inside ?

If not they're amateurs.

Russ Andrews has something that might help :-)

Brian Gaff (Sofa) expressed precisely :

But that would not provide the essential 'balanced power' that this unit provides.

I see it makes silence sound better. Ideal for listening to Simon and Garfunkel.

Hello darkness, my old friend I've come to talk with you again Because a vision softly creeping Left its seeds while I was sleeping And the vision that was planted in my brain Still remains Within the sound of silence

Ahhhhh - I can hear the inky blackness right now!

It's all bollocks, of course, - unless you are using an anchoic chamber but then my tinnitus rules!

The government should think of the benefits of a quack taxation rate.

_Anything_ not scientifically proven and marketed like this should be
