"True. Do what floats your boat. But don't foist off voodoo science on unsuspecting newbies looking to use a SB Touch in their music system as "required mods to get the best out of your Touch." First of all, I agree with both of these. But, and I ask this in all seriousness: Can one or both of you tell me what exactly is considered "voodoo science"? Is "I tried XXXX in my Touch and my music sounds better now" defined as voodoo science? Since I see a lot of this sort of thing and, due to my vast lack of knowledge in this field, I'm often totally confused by the responses. It seems that some folks consider this type of statetment as just one individual's opinion (the "try it, YMMV idea) and others see it and react as if it were heresy/voodoo science (the "without DBT and/or published, peer-reveiwed research, etc. to back it up then it should not be stated at all" idea). Is it more in HOW it's stated (as in "this'll change your life/you MUST do this!!"), or is it just the notion that anything at all that is stated without objective substantiation is, by definition, categorized as voodoo? I get that there are some things that just fly completely in the face of current physics and acoustical science. But it'd sure be nice for us numpties to have some objective measure of what's generally considered merely opinion (and left at that) and what's generally considered total b.s.! -- rgro Rg System information ------------------------ Main: PS Audio Quintet > Vortexbox > Touch (wired) via optical > Rega DAC > LFD LE IV Signature amp > VA Mozart Grands > REL Acoustics R305 sub.
