And BTW, before anyone says that the reason I can't appreciate high end power cables and black bodies is because my listening chamber isn't setup properly, or that my ears aren't precise enough, let me explain my setup:
My ears are of the finest quality. They have been tested in 3 different countries and my frequency response is flat to .1dB per hectare. I come from a long line hyper-auds. When they gave me my last hearing test, they didn't even bother asking me which ear I could hear the tone in. In fact, they didn't even play a tone. They just THOUGHT about playing a tone, and I would tell them which hand they were thinking of pushing the button with. Yes, I'M THAT GOOD.
My house is built on 1000ft of solid rock. I had it imported from Belgium....Antwerp, actually. All of the diamonds in Antwerp imprint their photonic "hardness" on the rock. Before pouring the foundation, the rock was fine tuned by carefully tapping with a hammer, and then listening to the sub-aural resonances. Then the rock was painted with carbon black to absorb stray photons and provide shielding.
The house itself is built out of kevlar impregnated acoustic foam. I don't mean just lined with foam. It's actually built out of acoustic foam....the beams, the stairs, the toilet seats...even the septic tank...all foam. The only compromise I had to make is the fireplace. That, and the chimney, had to be made out of brick to pass code. To minimize the impact on the rest of the house, I elected to build the fireplace off site. It's 200ft away from the house built on a Newport optical bench. It's further isolated by floating the bench on pneumatic isolation mounts sitting on a slab of rubber. Sure, it's a little inconvenient to have a detached fireplace, but I feel it's worth it.
My amplifier is built from the finest components known to man. The chassis is made out of honeycomb titanium. It sits in a custom enclosure made out petrified walnut (this is the best...trust me, I know). Even the resistors are made from gold. I don't mean they have gold in them. They're actual pieces of gold that have been tuned to get the perfect resistance. The capacitors are hand made from the finest silk. The entire design has been scaled so that every component value is a prime number. This limits the cross talk between components.
My cables are hand made from individual strands of pure silver. Each strand is individually polished to a high luster, and is then wrapped by hand to make the basic wire. Every cable has 373 individual strands...again, a prime number of strands to prevent crosstalk. The wire is then covered in carbon nanoparticles to remove any stray fields that were generated from the polishing process. The wire is then put in a drying oven for 200 hours to bake out any remaining moisture. The wire is then gold plated and insulated with 13mm of ceramic. The cables are completely vibration isolated. They sit on a block of platinum, which sits on a miniature air table, which sits on another block of platinum.
The listening chamber has been carefully tuned to capture all stray audio signal, while at the same time expanding the spatial imaging and textural undertones. All of my CDs are stored offsite (near the fireplace, actually) to prevent any possible nano-signal cross contamination between tracks. The CDs themselves are stored in custom cases made out of lead and coated with special blackbody shielding film. I feel that storing them in plastic...or even gold....imparts a hardness to the recording that the artist didn't intend. The entire CD vault is floating on a cushion of helium.
I hope that puts to rest any doubts you may have about my qualifications.
