    I carry a canister of audiophile air in my travel bag. I spray it in the hotel room and I can notice an immediate improvement in the sound of the $14.99 clock radio :eek:

    I have extra canisters of audiophile air available at the special Club Polk discount price of $76 each. :)

    I just make sure I swallow a good amount of air in the demo room while listening, that way when I get home I can **** it out and it works just as good...and since the wife is used to the odor...no one is the wiser ( That canned audiophile air has a musty full of **** smell to it as well, but the wife would notice the difference right away )

    Concealer, if you are a "cable yeah sayer" this product is for you... if you however are a "cable neah sayer", don't bother as you will not hear the subtle difference :p;) As Ricardo pints out, this product is FM :cool:

    Can't I just go to Wally World and get a Cascio travel alarm clock? I can get a pair and put on each speaker.

    So how exactly is that different from the standard Casio travel clocks? That exact same thing probably costs about $12 at Walmart.

    I still fail to see how this "Clever Little Clock" could possibly have any influence on the sound at all. It's not even in the signal path!! It is literally impossible for this thing to even do anything. Aside from telling you what time it is of course.

    Cloud recommends you slowly step away from the My Little Ponies. SLOWLY.... They shoot acid from from their eyes and when traveling in packs, have been known to devour an entire Snork in less than fifteen seconds.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore
