"I had been listening to some of the Wadax’s digital Reference system’s components without a supporting structure of commensurate quality. The Wadax digital front end and the four-chassis CH Precision L10 linestage together consume ten chassis. This formidable assemblage presents a challenge for the supporting structure. As the system grew and expanded, I ended up with two Wadax power supplies on the floor behind the rack and the Wadax Reference Transport on an inexpensive MDF rack that I had previously been using to store components not currently in use."

The rack 'improved' the sound of digital players that cost over $150K. :eek:

*barf*

Harley doesn’t even bother anywhere in the review to account for how the rack could’ve changed the sound of the components. It’s just pure swallowing of the marketing claims.

This is certainly one of many examples where purely subjective reviewing can really suck.

He was entirely serious, I didn't say otherwise. For 'energy patterns' just read 'psychological state of listener.'

And entirely stooopid.

"We believe that throughout millions of years of evolution, all the creatures from the very earliest of creatures had to be able to read (sense) energy patterns in the environment, to be able to make sense of these energy patterns in order to know what action to take, in order to survive."

Yea we had to sense the energy paterns of light and sound, what a genuis.

"That, because of the modern environment ( electricity has only been with us just over 100 years)"

??? I guess lightning, static and the EM spectrum (light) from the sun is not electricity. Better let your local uni physics department know.

Whatever the mystical explanation it's better for business than saying 'It's placebo but it can work'.

I'm convinced that the intention of the products is to stimulate cognitive bias. How you dress that up for marketing purposes is irrelevant. Look at the phony explanations for fancy power cables and fuses. Same thing.
