The Bybee folks have been at this ~20 years now. They boasted about NASA technology, iirc.

Such a miss in marketing here, they really did not dive into the quantum angle deep enough... imagine being in an instantaneous entanglement with your music.Anyone for some quantum level silliness?
... just "know" they work.

Made even better by the fact that the devices themselves appear to be pieces of wood!It’s pure and unadulterated nonsense
"The Bybee-QSE [Quantum Signal Enhancer] is a compact (4 X 6 X 1/4 Inch) attractive walnut wood panel, with a felt-covered bottom."
LOL!

They're way ahead of the weather machine and germ-warfare divisions.

Apparently there's also a quantum tweak to be attached to the back of the drivers and it works like a charm. In case it doesn't, you then have to pull out the driver once again to remove it.

Also, I recall some nonsense about it being from Top Secret military research. They'd have to shoot you if you understood!The Bybee folks have been at this ~20 years now. They boasted about NASA technology, iirc.

In other audiophile/tweak news, Geoff Kait just posted this link at audioasylum. Hilarity expected to ensue. Film at eleven.

If I ever heard anyone yapping about truly top secret stuff, I would make the call and he would get a visit fairly quick. Plus he would have to flip on his source and give him or her up too. The FBI and DOD like to take that stuff seriously even if a politician gets away with releasing secret info in a press interview. The FBI agent that gets the case would be salivating over his good luck. Super easy case to crack!

The big difference between their garbage and a mobile phone, is the ingorant user can see the mobile phone works. They can acutally make a call, and speak to somone on the other end.

Being a film maker (in absentia) i would so much like to get the account of these blokes, surely a lot of money to be made from making these commercials for them. But probably not as much as needed to buy one of these power cables. Heh.

in the 'actual snake oil' department:
Now i dont know who amongst here has used this. Needless to say i got some of this and have used it on pro gear that comes to me for repairs at times quite unkempt. However MG Chem also has a 'contact cleaner' which may be much cheaper...
<<
Thus, when applied to electromechanical contacts, Stabilant 22 provides the wide-bandpass connection reliability of a soldered joint without bonding the contacting surfaces together!
