Sadly this kind of product works very well with the audiophile mindset , you could also have a twiddly knob that did not do anything at all . ( placebo twiddly knob anyone ? ) this one does subtle things that or may not be audible , but thanks to sighted testing etc the imagined part is much bigger than the real part .
The engaged users feels involved now that he can tweak the product +1 and probably do this during the whole "burn in period" aka when you psychologically adjust to the new thing , ( the only that gets burned in is you ;) ) and you can probably share your revelations trough a forum that product xyz with setting abc finally lifted the last veil and got you blacker places and more air between the instruments .... I having nothing really agianst this feature but the implications gets blown out of proportion . -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
