Well....it seems there is at least ONE satisfied customer... (copied from Head-Fi.org)
Hi Geoff, You cetainly have an unusual job. Tweaking people's minds as well as their systems. I promised to write and relay my experience of the Teleportation Tweak. I spent a half hour listening before I called you today, and focused on the first few minutes of a Willie and Lobo song with lots of percussion instruments like cymbals, tinkling bells, rattles and the like. Then we had our brief phone conversation and you did the tweak. Upon returning to my headphone system ( I listen exclusively on headphones for the sake of domestic bliss) I was pleasantly surprised to find that there was much more detail and resolution to the sound. As a result the various percussion instruments sounded more lifelike and real. In fact they sounded more like musical instruments and less like interesting noises. I went back for another longer listening session this evening to see if the effects would still be there and they definitely were. The increased lifelike quality to the music extends to all instruments and to human voices. You may have saved me $600 as I was thinking of upgrading my "Monica" NOS DAC as I felt it was too congested on busy complicated music, and would sometimes distort on louder passages, but now I am not so sure I need a new DAC. I could just hear a little of that same congestion as before but not anywhere near as much, and the distortion at higher volumes or louder passages seems to be gone. Thanks, Nirmala And I just wanted to add a thought for those who are convinced that this is purely placebo, especially since some people hear no difference with tweaks like this. There is another phenomenon known as the nocebo effect which suggests that someone who does not believe in a well-proven medical treatment will often experience no benefit as a result of their belief. It is kind of a negative placebo effect that has been shown to sometimes interfere with successful treatment. So, if it is possible that some people hear a benefit that does not actually exist from a tweak only because of their belief or desire to hear the beneficial change, then it is also possible that someone who does not believe in these kinds of effects will not hear a benefit or change that is actually there. -- Curt962 Transporter...Touch....Boom...... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Curt962's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31949 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=86359 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
