In Reply to: "Seemingly-obvious scams like Meshuggah Dynamica." How to explain then... posted by clarkjohnsen on June 21, 2006 at 09:20:00:
Have you heard them? These knobs use lacquer specially selected to have the best musical properties. It's used on the finest violins made today. It imparts a rich warm tone to everything it comes near. These knobs reduce distortion from the wrong harmonics (don't remember whether it's odd or even which are the villians but what the hell, does it really matter, it sounds good to say it) and they increase dynamic range while improving clarity and accuracy. I hear a difference like day and night, why can't you? Maybe your sound system doesn't have high enough resolution or maybe your hearing is just bad. How much time and effort have you devoted to really listening to them. Have you given them even half a fair chance to prove themselves?
It is of course the same arguement as with those stupid wires people make so much of. Same arguement, same idea, but while there are a lot of wire guys out there paying for a lot of ad space there's hardly any money to be made from advertising lacquered wooden knobs, maybe none at all so it's Okay to ridicule it. Of course it could just as easily have developed over time as the other way around! Would you then be ridiculing exotic wires? We'll never know. ;>)
