Interesting article. I work at an A/V consulting firm and we have a
relatively hard-core audiophile on staff. He recently brought in a Monster
power-conditioner and demoed it for some of the staff in the office,
stating afterwards that we should begin specifying it on all our projects.
While such equipment can help in specific situations he obviously didn't
understand the theory behind its operation. Fortunately he's a great
salesman (his position is sales) and he doesn't do any design work.


Salesmen seem to be more easily duped by other salesmen.
You'd think they would be more clued-in to the deceptive practices,
but maybe they are in denial. :-)
