    Yes they are. They are wholly untrue.

    Just as untrue as the claims made by Mana advocates.

    Please document here your experience with Mana stands.

    Why do you think that Mana users lie?

    Granted there are one or two jokers in the pack making claims about £99 cd players, etc. On the whole claims regarding Mana stands benefits can be substantiated.

    I don't have any experience of seeing if gold ingots float in water, but I know they don't.

    I don't think Mana users lie any more than I think users of £1K+ interconnects lie about what they believe they are hearing.

    Are you afraid you won't set it up properly? It is quite hard.

    Can I take it that you actually have zero experience of using Mana, but despite that handicap, you already know exactly what effect they may or may not have on a hi-fi system?

    IOW, your posting in this thread is meaningless noise.

    Bub, you are deliberately misinterpreting my posts. Of course I didnt say that. I meant the on-line behaviour of certain owners put me off the brand.

    Good lord, man! Trust me; the stand works. Why would I lie?

    Good grief!

    There are some people who use Mana whom I like, some who use it whom I dislike. I even like some people who don't use Mana.

    Bub, I don't want to be associated with certain type of people. How is that "Conduct unbecoming of gentlemen,"? The car I drive is associated with a lot of negatives, but I still like the product itself.

    How does ownership of a particular brand of hi-fi stand "associate" you with anyone else? Totally bizarre, if you ask me.

    I guess it would be bizarre to ascotiate Naimies with sheep then --

    I'm not saying you are lying. You clearly believe it works. There are people who clearly believe they've been abducted by aliens. They're not lying either. They are wrong though.

    No, that would be what is known as a "joke", penance.

    Michaelab, I see you are continuing to contribute noise to this discussion. Why?

    An odd statement. Every word of it is nonsense.

    This Forum seems to have become the "ya-boo sucks to you" Forum. It's taken up where the old Mana Forum left off.
