For someone who cares that much about audio, the sound in his video is crap. I can't listen to that badly EQ'ed, distorted gunk.

This is old stuff! Where did you dig up that video ? I saw it long ago and iirc, his company went belly up. Watch his power cord video, these guys had lotsa videos for the lunatic fringe.

The guy may still be around selling audiophile cables.

I loved the line "resonant energy can't escape from the steel screws and builds up".

This might actually work sometimes, if the speaker is loose or the mounting surfaces are uneven. 

But he missed a fantastic audiophool opportunity by not discussing the audio merits of various drive types.  We all know that square drive is good for older pop music and things like Lawrence Welk, while Torx drive is good for hard metal rock.  I'll leave you all to guess what is best for classical music.  No question though that the star drive (ala VW) is the best for Wagner.

 Rush sounds best when using Robertson head screws. A side tweak is it also is the best choice when listing to The Band.
