Resonance synchronizer

I love this stuff. From the Nordost description for tomorrow's hi-fi show:

"A name synonymous with the highest quality audio cabling, Nordost is showing its revolutionary QPOINT Resonance Synchronizer. This device addresses resonances within components by emitting a subtle field which manipulates all electromechanical resonances within its immediate proximity with the result that they resonate in unison with each other. By syncing these resonances, the QPOINT claims to eliminate internal electrical noise, enhancing the coherency and timing that is typically lacking in even the most high-end audio systems. The extraordinary QPOINT Resonance Synchronizer is a must-see product. Don’t miss out on hearing how it, and Nordost’s other accessories, can take your listening pleasure to the next level."

Would rather spend the money on beer myself though!

Are Nordost completely shameless? That release reads like Vogon poetry

...

"Yes, do continue ..." invited the Nordos^^^^^Vogon.

"Oh ... and er ... interesting rhythmic devices too," continued Arthur,
"which seemed to counterpoint the ... er ... er ..." He floundered.

Ford leaped to his rescue, hazarding "counterpoint the surrealism of the
underlying metaphor of the ... er ..." He floundered too, but Arthur was
ready again.

"... humanity of the ..."

"Vogonity," Ford hissed at him.

"Ah yes, Vogonity (sorry) of the equipment's compassionate soul," Arthur felt
he was on a home stretch now, "which contrives through the medium
of the verse structure to sublimate this, transcend that, and come to
terms with the fundamental dichotomies of the other," (he was reaching
a triumphant crescendo ...) "and one is left with a profound and vivid
insight into ... into ... er ..." (... which suddenly gave out on him.) Ford
leaped in with the coup de gr@ce:

"Into whatever it was the music was about!" he yelled.
​
Out of the corner of his mouth: "Well done, Arthur, that was very good."
 
Pure woo woo - only for the heroically gullible.

Surely the most nakedly transparent attempt to cash-in on expectation bias*?







* then again, isn't that Nordost's whole business model
 
I listened to this thingy at Munich this year and was not convinced.
On the other hand, I tried a couple of QV2 devices in my mains block and liked what they did...

Beaten though by "ode to a lump of green putty I found under my armpit one midsummer morn" as worst poetry in galaxy IIRC
 
The main winding was of the normal lotus-o-deltoid type placed in panendermic semi-boloid slots in the stator, every seventh conductor being connected by a nonreversible tremmie pipe to the differential girdlespring on the "up" end of the grammeters.

'Ode to a lump of green putty' I believe had long been used as a reference recommendation for stylus cleaning in some circles... or is it that - at least at one time - the Linnie were rather more deferential / less cynical than the Dentrassie, when it came to facilitators of bollocks from their masters ...
