Seems that boutique item and time-nut might go together, if there was an actual performance advantage. Besides, think of the bragging rights from some of this stuff. It could be worse than audiophile craziness: My DMTD has capacitors made of genuine Lexan(r), not just any old polycarbonate, hand pressed to a thin film from the finest selected window glazing sheets using rollers machined from the finest steel puddled by English craftsmen in Sheffield using traditional methods. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
