no, I don't believe in magic.
Bryon - if you want to really hear what is going on, just invite a friend over and ask him to blidfold you while you listen to the music and he "switches" the tweaks on and off.
If you can't get it right at least 70% of the time - it was purely psychological effect. And if you get it right, then you proven that it works and don't worry about the HOW.
(and even if it turns out to be a placebo effect - I am not saying that this placebo effect wasn't worth your money - after all if your brain believes it sounds better, it does sound better to YOU)
We must remember that listening to music is not an objective function - because, music means something to us. It affects us psychologically and emotionally.
I strongly believe that this hobby is about equipment as much as our individual interpretation of music/sound according to our own unique state of mind.
....there is the equipment, the room and your brain.
