| Re: Mains power cable to remove Macrovision - spoof
There used to be a guy called Peter William Belt. I remember reading about him in a copy of what hi-fi circa 1985...... I think the company was called PWB or P.W.B audio products
He used to sell this sort of product for real (not the HDMI leads obviously!)
I recall two inparticular.
One was a fantastic brush to use prior to each time you played an L.P. (remember them!?) It cost about £80 (back in '85!), and would place some special ion (not iron) coating on the vinyl surface, thereby aiding stylus tracking etc etc, claimed amazing improvement in sound quality. The brush was spot on identical to a Woolworths paint brush costing 30p, except there was a little sticky label on it with PWB written on.
There was also some kind of magic solution to coat the playing surface of a CD with, which provided improved optical tracking, again mega expensive.
There was also something with a paperclip, but I can't recall exactly now - it was 22 years ago!
If anyone happens to have any recollection of this, or indeed any adverts or articles, I would, sadly, be interested (in reading, not in buying!)
