In Reply to: RE: Audiogon feedback is a joke posted by Tony Lauck on August 26, 2010 at 10:30:33
I have some oceanfront property in Arizona. Or I can sell you the potato powered clock my cousin produced in grade school.
Audiogon feedback a joke? Absolutely. The entity suppresses negative feedback if submitted by buyers in order to protect sellers, its revenue source. I cancelled my membership after I was burned by a seller and Audiogon blocked the feedback that I submitted. The Audiogon feedback system is a farce. It represents a pretty clean subset of reality.

I just can't believe people buying a teleportation tweak by phone??? hello!!!. phone line frequency range is extremely limited, teh guys tat sells this is a crook and it is the fault of the people that are so gullible that BUY IT!!!! for crying out loud!! the joke is on us not his fault we're a bunch of dodo's . . .
The guy is a fraud, absolutely no doubt, achieving a permanent effect on room acoustics through a tone during a phone call??? are we crazy??
You have to treat the walls with materials to achieve that.
If this was true then listening to real music in the room would do so much more for the the room acoustics than a ridiculous whistle for a few seconds.
I just laughing my head off thinking how stooopid one must feel to hold up the phone in the room so the room gets the treatment. c'mon guys are you serious??
LOL

The info page states "the fundamental principle of operation of the Teleportation Tweak is quantum teleportation." Really? It actually sounds like the fundamental principle of the entire company is to dazzle potential customers with technobabble, and then sell them a pricey placebo.
So, back in 2007, MD mastered the art of quantum teleportation such that it could be used to improve any sort of audio device within earshot of a telephone? Interesting. Well, for those who haven't been paying attention, here is is an article on the current (2010) state of the art when it comes to quantum teleportation (you know, by actual scientists who really are doing research in the field):

While they're making progress, it doesn't sound like something that can be used to perform anything even remotely useful as of yet. And really, even if they do perfect it, the end result will really just be a method of communication - not sure how is could be used to impart any sort of effect on an arbitrary device that happens to be at the other end.
You'd be better off saving your $60 and in stead just spend a few minutes yelling and pointing your finger at your audio gear until it was shamed into sounding better. Should be equally effective as the teleportation tweak, really.

It appears that MD is far ahead of, uh, the "actual scientists who really are doing research in the field." Tee hee
Gullible?
Some Audiophiles are the most gullible folks I've ever met.
