Yikes! .....A $700 Power Bar!

No.. a crime on the buyer's pocketbook. BTW: "Verison"??

Wow... There is a sucker born every minute.. Anyone that would pay that for it.

I saw a PC sound bar thing at the store today. It looked cheap, and weighed little, and was like $35! No way would I buy some cheap, model care looking thing.

I bought the heavy, shielded, amplified, $20 El Cheapo "Cyber Acoustics" pair, and they are pretty good for my MAME, XBMC OmegaBox.

All the "Creative" and "Logitech",etc stuff was all way overpriced as far as I am concerned. Though their top line stuff is good, by that point I would piece together my own stuff.

For the OmegaRevo,The $20 3 Lb each audio paperweights are nice 2-way jobs and they are amplified too. Amazing how far the world has come, and what $20 will get one.

So, yours is a power bar, and mine is an audio bar, but I wouldn't buy the one I saw. Anyway, That's what it made me think of.

Ha! It's the ' Isoclean 105F II - 4 Position Space Saving Verison w/ 15 Amp Audio Grade Noise Filter'

A powerbar that removes everything but typos!

What a joke!

Take it apart and its probably just a 20mm MOV and a cheap CMC.

It does have a nice shiny base plate though.;-)

No. Anybody who buys it should be Psychologically evaluated though.

Audiophiles are a strange breed.

Electronics is 'magic' to them, and they know how to do it so much better than us.

We couldn't possibly know what the bBarnum and Bailey factor is in this industry.

Naaahhh... not us.

Bwuahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

I should make audiophool gear. The profit margins have to be huge. The shame is that the volume can't be that high. There just cannot be that many stupid people out there. Wait! Sure there can! Look at the huge number of idiots that come here!

Look at some of his previous sales: A single "Audio Grade" fuse for $27 + $10 shipping, a 1.8m power cable for $288+35......... We're all in the wrong business!

No, just ordinary, uneducated, regular, Joes.

There's the giveaway, Apart from the spelling mistake, no engineer would ever write that.

Actually the most lucrative is residential renovations. I was in home depot the other day and the lady and her husband in front of me were given a quote for $13,000 just for labor on a 900 sq/ft hardwood install and a 750 sq/ft ceramic tile install.

I did my own hardwood in the living room and ceramic in the kitchen about the same dimension it was about 5k are so including some speciality tool rentals. No it wasn't cheap s*it it was quality Armstrong hardwood. I just knew the employee selling it and got it at a little above cost.

I was tempted to say I would do it for 5k plus materials and rentals.:-)

Now this is the real deal!

They even through in a $1875 power cord for you! :)

I suppose that's for those that can't grasp EM physics and need the air pollution analogy.

Well, it does have red outlets! Mike

Right. An engineer would write:

"ether-borne" ;)

It looks like it has four leveling screws on the baseplate, to keep the electrons from pooling up in one corner. That's important to granular soundstaging and inner macrodynamics.

John

An engineer certainly wouldn't.

Michelson and Morley dispelled the ether myth about a hundred years ago,

Yeah, I read it from over a mile away.

Well, this thread certainly is way up in the either... ;-)

You have to rent a Coriolis meter so you can compensate for the final placement orientation, if it isn't directly aligned.

True. And I hope they put in acoustic damping on the inside. Otherwise noise currents will cause the filter components to vibrate and send the vibrations as surface waves along the copper surface to the other end, inducing microphonics on the power line. The problem is exacerbated by transition phase shifts at the Cu-Rh-Cu interfaces.
