It works because the general public has no idea what it actually means. Much like the term crypto.

Of course...
and I see they've expanded the fuses into two ranges with different sound now! They are truly miracle workers... or something.

Ah, the ultimate irony. A quantum difference is often the least significant difference. For those truly pedantic, that would be things such as a Plank length difference.

It’s from a factory tour of the manufacturer that makes these grounding boxes with wooden enclosures... So, yeah.

Speaker materials. Aluminum, silk, teflon, kryptonite... Those are elements that can lead to so much BS that it is worth taking an approach.

Grounding boxes?
So they are compliant/passed the IEC 62561-1 test method standard?

I put in the simple search term of "62561-1" on that page, and the result was negative.The link is in this post:

BTW: as an EE may I say I abhor the term "ground" or "grounding" with respect to any type of signal? It serves one, and only one purpose: safety during sub-optimum operating conditions.

Well, that was certainly optimistic of you.

I am an engineer. I am neither pessimistic nor optimistic. I simply know my calculations indicate that there will be no fatalities under the worst case design criteria.Well, that was certainly optimistic of you.

May I say again, I abhor the terminology of 'grounding'? In my perfect world, ground would be irrelevant. I design for analog reference. Which may or may not be referenced to "ground".

This happens the third Thursday at Razzi's in Greenwood. You need to sign up for MeetUp, join the skeptics group, and then sign up for this if you want to be there.
BUT I doubt this is in you guys ballpark, it's pretty obvious to you.

I see your problem, so much stuff to choose from. I would start pointing out some ridiculous examples just to prove snake oils exists, then I would focus in the most common things that reasonable intelligent people tend to spend money and turns out to be a waste; in my case: too much money spent in HD tracks, speakers and headphones that looks good and have great YouTube subjective reviews, without checking if objective measurement exists.
A lot of this "Snake Oil" stuff tend to be from cable manufacturers, which actually makes sense sort ofYou definitely can't throw a stick without hitting a company that makes "high-end" interconnects, speaker cables and/or power cables.
Here's a list of some of the more oily companies I've seen so far:

Audiophile ethernet switches. This is my personal nails against the chalkboard item.
If you need data outlining why it is impossible for ethernet switches to sound different, I can provide. But the most obvious 2 are:
1 - sound does not exist where ethernet exists
2 - ethernet switches are incapable of making the organized changes to music files that would be needed to impact the sound of the music file.
