    Not exactly hi-def, but does this actually work? I don't have a bare cable to strip and try it with right now, but winder if this actually does work. Time for some D-I-Y action...

    Guess I will be sending the new tweets I ordered from Polk for my 10b's back when I get them and use the money for lots of plates and foil. I wonder if you were to mount these bad boys on a sand/shot filled stand if it would improve the already awesome sound, hmmmm. Also wondering if I were to add a mint penny with certificate of authenticity that it would also improve the sound a little; maybe throw in some silver wire and I have a $10,000.00 system for under $20.00.:rolleyes:

    It's a hoax. The same group has put out dozens of them.

    ...meaning that it doesn't work at all, let alone sound good.
