I'm not impressed with the so-called "theory" behind Richard Grahams's
tweaks, but neither can I deny that two rao'ers have increased their
personal pleasure by use of them. "Fella's" statement that the music seemed
to slow down is an indication of an altered state of consciousness, which
can be induced by many things. A mental crutch is a good thing, if it works
harmlessly. I do suggest to "Fella" that there are probably many other
things he could to to induce the same altered pleasured state, without the
silly picture on top of his speakers. Fella, consider putting some art on
the wall where they will catch your eye and soul.



Thanks for the suggestions Bob. It seems you've not read my post to the
letter as I never said I put the "silly" thing on my speakers. I put it
on my big ass amp. That amp looks like a "facility" rather then a piece
home audio equipment. I think something "silly" on top of it would do it
good, give it some humility, at least for a sometime. My wife recently
asked me what that "piece of paper" was doing on the amp and I said
"just don't touch it"... But it is pretty damn soon I am going to start
doping some explaining. I love the way she laughs at this silly hobby of
mine but this one is way over the top for her...


Yes Bob, the tweak is all about altering perception, conciousness.


Audiophilia's like a mind-altering drug in that way.

Or maybe it's just more like what P.T. Barnum said.

Anyway, you're wife's not the only one laughing at you.
