    And what is "high frequency hash"?

    Secondary system: Airport Express -> BeoLab 3 Speakers (still need replacing - too fatiguing)
    TV Room: Marantz NR 1504-> Usher S520/525 speakers
    Original System: NAD C541 CD Player -> NAD C340 Amp -> lamp cord -> B&W CM2 Speakers, Ipod/Itunes ALAC- secondary source

    maybe there is something to it, but it looks a bit like snake oil to me....

    I'm hugely disappointed to see they don't utilize technology based on quantum physics or string theory

    As is stated on Russ' site its a zobel network in a box.... What it doesn't tell you is that a zobel network is simply a capacitor and resistor in series. I have taken the liberty of creating a diagram you can copy if you wish to make your own for £2 instead of buying one for £££.



    The values in the diagram above are taken from the "OCOS" branded one's that used to sell for $99

    A lot of speakers and/or amps already have a Zobel fitted.

    At its most basic a Zobel network can be a cap and resistor in series, but they can be much more complicated than that and can be used as all/low/high/band pass filters as well as L-pad and other attenuator types. Typically though it's just a coil and a resistor or cap and resistor in series attached to the output of an amp.

    If you have a SS Class A/B amp it likely has one in already, most Naim has, My Krell has, my Muse Model 200 has, my TAG's had. No point paying these pricks one cent.
