... and I love this one;

Plus, any of these should raise a titter;

After that last one, I guess the 2 kilobuck LP flattener is a real bargain!!

I'm in the wrong business.

I wonder why there are no products like that for video.  Are their no "Golden eyes" out there to exploit?

That's a good question. A high end TV or DVD player would got even highendier if it was plugged into wall socket with a properly burned-in power cable.

EDIT: Hey, these products are for video as well (see http://www.elusivedisc.com/prodinfo.asp?number=DAUDCUBE ):

Deep cryogenic process provides vivid color reproduction for video and stunning sound for audio

But why stop at video? I want smoother and punchier light from my lamps, I want the coke in my fridge to taste more transparently and with some even harmonics, I want my shirts to be smooth and silky (though they are made of cotton). I am going to burn-in the fridge, lamps, and iron power cords with http://www.elusivedisc.com/prodinfo.asp?number=DAUDBURN . I like this one the most .

Ahh..  it gives video "more vivid color".  TNX PQ.  
That makes sense too.  I mean, name one good reason why it should be any less effective for video than for audio.  Case closed.    Same goes for the kitchen appliances.

You'll probably find a nice helpful chap on a street corner who will be able to sell you something that does all that - and guess what? It works on everybody's coke (even Pepsi), any shirt you wear, everthing you look at and everything you eat. Okay, it might mangle your brains a bit, but hey! Wow! Maaan!

I think they've missed a huge sector of the market. Isn't it a scientifically proven fact that each music genre requires a different type of chord for optimum performance? That way they don't just sell us one chord, they can sell us set of half a dozen. With those quantities they should be able to work out a better price structure. I can hardly wait.

Don't need to change the price structure, just sell more of the same to the same idiots.

I'm going to burn-in the powercord of the pump of my central heating. It doesn't always start well.

You're a marketing genius!      

This is my favourite: http://www.elusivedisc.com/prodinfo.asp?number=ABED-QUAD

Treat your discs before playing them? Is this an add-on business we should be looking at; post sales mastering? Brilliant. We can ship the CDs and if they are not up to the customer's expectations, and for only $2 per disc plus s/h, we could use the "beam clarifier" to set everything right.

Are there no laws to stop this type of dealer/manufacturer from selling these products?

However, if they ever come up with a jazz IEC power cable, I want one!!! I just don't think that my current cables understand the nuances of my music.

Pity.

Anyone with (a lot of) time to spare might want to follow this:

Basically the background is as follows: a medical doctor in the UK writes a weekly newspaper column debunking "Bad Science". Up to now this has mainly been about healthcare - homeopathy, dodgy TV 'doctors' who bought their degrees off the net and so forth (and it's a brilliant read!).

Anyway a few weeks ago he turned his eye on the hi-fi power cord market, with an aim to prove for once and for all whether they have any effect whatsoever on, for example (as claimed by the manufacturers) the optical digital output of a CD player. This may well be a starting point for a more wide-ranging scientific enquiry into the pseudo-scientific bollocks written by and for the audiophile market.

In the meantime he's had a collosal response to the proposal of testing a regular kettle lead versus something costing £1800, the bulk of it entirely predictable. The thread linked to above is a useful lesson in ignorance, IMHO...

I presume you meant cord, not chord - but that did give me an idea. Since the mains frequency is what it is wherever you are, then ideally you'd need a mains cord that prevented harmonics of this interfering with your listening experience. So why not have tuned power cords? If you were going to be a real genius though, I reckon you should have one for the predominant musical key of each piece listened to. That way you could sell 12 of each one for each piece of equipment powered by them... plus the really expensive adjustable one - which should cost at least $5000, I think. Unless it was purified with 16-yr old virgin tears, of course - that should double the price.

Sod the scientific research - this is marketing and sales we are talking about here!!!!

Anyone with an engineering background care to explain why this will make my hi-fi sound better by buying $1700 interconnects over my standard £20 leads?:

Ah Steve, the possibilities are endless with vintage recordings. All those different tunings, disc speeds and so forth. We need micro-tuning leads really. I think you and I could make a lot of money with this, my friend!
