    Don’t get scammed with audiophile rocks. I’ve done my research and found out that audiophile rock salt does the exact same thing and it is MUCH cheaper! Feel free to copy this and spread the word!

        … Jesus fucking christ. My research is invalid. I’m going to have to start all over again. 🤬

        Right?? It’s crunchy! That’s what all audiophiles want. Crunchiness.

          The science behind it is that it sounds crunchy because the rock salt draws out the moisture from the music. You will have to replace the salt on a regular basis though - depending on how much music you listen to.

            Yeah that’s true but still, I listen to a lot of really wet and moist music and even then. For the price of one good quality audiophile rock I can have a lifetime supply of rock salt for both audio and seasoning purposes.

        No no, I’m not like that, I promise. I understand your skepticism. It saddens me that this is where we’re at today but I understand.

      You’re doing it wrong. You need to match the type and size of the rock to your headphone impedance, this is common knowledge man

        I would need a boulder yo. My headphones have an impedence of 170,000 ohms. This will have to do.

        Sorry I can’t sell any at all. Not even a gram. I have exactly enough for myself, nothing to spare.

            Urgh I know but what’s the point in carrying more. I can’t compete with Big Rock Salt. Ever since they legalized it I barely get any customers.
