Tweaks

PBB ought to try Kelly’s set up but with some more robust varieties of sod... er, grass.

Northern Lights, Early Girl, or OS 1 exhibit excellent absorption and diffusion characteristics.

Only problems I've found are the extreme temperature in my listening room - (amps keep shutting down). I've learned to live with the noise of the ozone generator and the constant buzz of the grow lamps. …But these DAMN welders goggles I wear (to reduce glare) are hurting my face and breaking up the sonic images.

Aside from that it’s the best tweak ever.

Seriously, guys, tweaks are alot different from modifications, and it is worth speculating on their differences. One can easily see how the tweak enables many audiophiles to obey the Law of their Warranty (not to tamper with their component) while following their desire to somehow change the performance of their system in a sometimes obsessive way. From this perspective, the tweaker's literal obedience to the Law cannot but appear as the ultimate opportunistic manipulation, and even as a false relation to the intents of the designer of a component since a tweak implies a totally external relationship towards the component as a set of variables to be, well, tweaked, so that one can achieve one's own true aim, not the designer's. What bothers many DIYers and technicians who actually "modify" or "alter" their components about tweakers is probably the fact that the tweakers do not see the cheap trickery of their procedure, so that when they succeed in having their cake and eating it, in realizing their goal without disobeying the letter of their Warranty, they do not feel the need to go further and get their hands dirty by getting more serious.

Slawney, we need more of you here, especially if you've tweaked yourself to such excellent performance! Cheers,

Is he sitting on Vibrapods or spikes?

KP, I'm not sure..I suppose it depends, when on vibrapods, he seems of a more gentle disposition...... on spikes he's probably more astute......
