Default Re: The Audiophoolery Thread.

I suppose it's very important to know which way round an interconnect or fuse was fitted when it was burned in professionally. Otherwise it would be easy (50% probability) to fit it in the reverse direction. This could explain uncertainty in people's experiences with advanced audio products.

It would be possible to engineer a centralised DeOxit distribution system. A reservoir and pump unit with a radial system of capillary pipes leading to every contact/conactor/switch in a system. By pressing a simple plunger, the system owner can deliver a shot of contact cleaner to all needy places at once, like one of those greasing systems on long-range lorries.

I'm a bit surprised they use DeOxit, though. Ordinary people use it, so it might not be high-end enough.
