I heard some really good things about this super-tweaked clock from
owners, but I never heard the clock. Did you purchase one? If so, could
you elaborate on its relative merits on sound quality? How does it
compare, for example, to other upgrades of similar cost?

The basic clock mechanism has to sell for less than $20.
The Machina Dynamica is $199.

Wow! <clap! clap!> Little Arny can calculate! We're so PROUD of you,
little Arny!
First of all you pompous withered old fool, "Machina Dynamica" is not
the name of the product, it's the name of the company. Second of all
you pompous withered old fool, the CLC is not simply a rebadged Timex
clock, you moron. Thirdly, Kait has forgotten more about audio than you
ever knew, you engineering wanna-be pc sound card peddler. No one is
stupid enough to sell or buy a clock for $200 that they could buy for
$9.99; no, not even YOU. What's obvious to everyone else buy you, is
that the clock has been treated. The treated clock sounds like you've
upgraded your system by significantly more than $200, so it is in fact,
a BARGAIN. Had you actually read the review I posted, you'd have known
that, and maybe had a clue as to what you're blabbing about. But you
never do, do you? That's why you'll always be an ignorant old fart
Arny; stuck back in a time when "high fidelity" meant putting a quarter
on the tonearm of your monophonic record player.

No doubt this sonic advantage is noticable only in sighted evaluations.
Long-time proponents of sighted evaluations such as Sackman and Middius
should find this product very much to their liking.

Sorry, Jenn, but you have never offered proof that you are actually a
female, or that your name is Jenn, or that you know an ohm from a volt.

It's not for you to speculate about grammatical issues. At least not
until you learn the difference between "suspect" and "expect".
