Strangely enough with the Magic Clock, I was around for the first "go round" of these devices, back in the 70's.Back then it was the "Radio Shack" LED clock, which I promptly went out and purchased two. Made no difference at all, but they were nice clocks for $13.99 and I still have one of them. The difference was they were supposed to be "plugged into" the wall on the same circuit as your system.Eventually a company called TICE, claimed to have developed a far improved version, which I never heard no had the desire to.
..... ....I remember that....kept reading about it in Stereophile back then....but I never bought that clock....but I did plug in my AM-FM alarm clock next to my amp....didn't work any magic...
That's because you didn't "reverse" the polarity by plugging it in backwards.
That's why they invented red nail polish (to mark your plug and outlet correctly)
Maybe even the award itself can improve sound? Certainly a trophy placed on your amp would eliminate tons of grit and grain, right?
By the way, TAS is way to low and Stereophile is way too high. That may help to explain some of what they write.
Do these "clever little clocks" ever come up for sale on the second hand market? Let's imagine that they actually manage to sell some of these clocks: then if they don't come up for sale on the used market often, do we imagine that people are actually satisfied with the purchase? Or are they just too embarrassed to admit that they made the purchase in the first place?....Chad
