Will be used on all new products. Note: the MOTM-480 is now priced at $7,000 :)

now I need $8,000 speaker cables

And future MOTM modules will contain pure silver wire. ;-) Heck, gold plated circuit boards would be nice, too. Gold meets RoHS specs, I'm sure.

Anyway, that knob thing is such bullcrap. Everybody knows that paulownia wood knobs sound much more musical than beech wood.

I hope that is for a *set* of knobs!

We get the same results because our $0.50 knobs have a special anti
vibrational rubber coating! (I hate buzzing knobs...)

Frankly, I have not heard such a load since Bush invaded Iran... eerr Iraq
I mean!

The sad thing is that this guy probably makes a load of money...

The advantage of wood over other materials is, obviously,
conductivity. We had considered solid gold, but rejected it for this
reason. Glass would work, of course, but then there's the shattering
problem at high frequencies. Ice has a tendency to evaporate at
inopportune moments and only works at very low temperatures - although
you can use them to cool your bourbon in a pinch. But wood is the
material of choice here. See - the sound has to bend it's way through
all those little groovy pipes in the back and past the valves behind
the knobs. Wooden knobs transmit almost none of the sound - so more
of it gets to the speaker hoses - almost none leaks out through the
knobs. Besides - they float! A bargain at $485. But maybe I could
get my son to whittle me some. Oh - and they float, man. Wait - my
bong needs re-filled.

However, if you __do__ have those 'golden ears' and you
want to make a cool $1,000,000.00, give James a call
and set up an appointment:

Heh...

He also offers that $1M for psychics and that cash has been
happily earning interest since it was placed in the account...
