    I've got a tape by these guys called "Head Cleaner". It's very quiet. I've got their video as well.

    I think this is an experiment by the RIAA to test whether they can leave out the music around their audio watermarks and sell them standalone. If the market reacts positive, their profit will skyrocket up to 100.05%, because they don't have to pay those greedy musicians anymore.

    As I recall, a lot of audiophile's speakers were replaced after the cones practically leapt across the room.
