Has to be said

Hi,
i been reading most sites and the little arguments about this and that about making audio in this case be more pleasent ot better to any individual. and have to say upfront that if "you" believe its better to you than it is in fact true to you and you only. we are just reletive respondants to each other and therefore nature and the universe.
many of the subjects that come up as to improving ones audio system tend to go into little details that may or may not have "real" affects on most of us. and also be provable with phsics,math,medical studies etc.many musicians and many humans can distinguish alot of these aspects. and they are ALL quantifiable and measureable very easilly. from 1800 till today FFT and resonance,sound perfiliration has been well adjustable from the totally acoustic pipe organs to the music halls 100s of years ago with out electronic fixes, and all these new snake oil gagets on the market. many are always big commenters here on this site.
Its totally true you can "fix" and sound wave with free rocks,walls,chambers, etc. so go for it at a cost of zero dollars. and adbandon all these marketing hacks.
Ive been well into sound,RF,Radioation, Electron manulipation, Audio,phsics etc all my life and all my relatives aslso . I dont need to justify my opinions yet am dignified by holding 8 international patents,2 doctrets and my dad with similar fields.
one crazy obvious thing no one even bothers to mention is the way off standard of 440hz shifted 8hz the earths standard resonance. while all the 1000s of years 432hz was based on real natural happenings before electronics. dont you all care everything you listen to is 8hz off tune and therefore wrong, but you will bicker about a few microvolts noise from an ocslittating wire with parallell wire  hanging off a standoff. itf too funny to me.
yes all digital except one source tunes their DAC math to 435hz to be more correct to Verdi and other great composers.
ive got tuning forks over the audio and above spectrum and tune my panios violins etc to them 432 hz
and need to say again. yes please do everything Analoge
to correct your sound system, its been done in churches,music halls,the great pyrmids, with instruments themselves.
but do not chase the rabbit down the money hole to fix apparent physhoacoustics in your listening area.

ps the spelling and writing is horrid cause ive got a brain injury2 years ago and under go EEG,ehthesographs and neuro studies constantly. where various frequency sweeps are put thru me and studied by the medical and commercial fields.
Im off for now to play my bass thru 50000watts total. and resonate the neighborhood at 8.2 HZ....

Clearthink,
Once again, I will remind you that this is a libellous statement. Think what you want, but when you libel someone online, you can be legally responsible. You seem to like to make these claims. One day it will catch up to you. Keep in mind if sued, you would need to prove I used Wikipedia. Your personal attacks with 0, and I do mean 0 content related to my posts are of no value.

The problem is that when presented with a theory your usual and customary practice is to apply a fact or two derived from Wikipedia and then use that to dismiss, dispel, or "disprove" the concept that you cannot grasp, comprehend, or that conflicts with your belief system which is, again, based on Wikipedia it is all part of you're compelling need to be seen as authoritative, expert, and intellectual.

Humidity will have a bigger effect. This bias is why anyone who researches audible

yes and airdensity/press ie altitude.
maybe ill market mounitn speakers that can acoustic impedance couple the thin air better....
ps we ran all jan/mil acoustic at Std temp/press 1000mb@72deg 30% non turblent laminar from above .

of course ive done this stuff with every reasonable input/ freq train-modulation-phase shift-dual beat etc-audio/direct-needle brain pulse, etc but thats the feedback part ad a doctoral thesis itself

At David, "You have to admit there is a big difference from "heard a difference" and "thought I heard a difference", with the latter being the case 99% of the time on these forums. "

***And you are omniscient and know this to be true***
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AtDavid’s lines above are what every "skeptical" post on these "controversial" topics is saying--my theory (beliefs in my head) are correct, and I don’t believe your evidence.

AtDavid,
Scientists may not accept a theory until they collect data and analyze it.  But you are better--you reject a theory with no data.

@atdavid, that was a long list of “holes.” Unfortunately, there are some serious holes in your so-called holes. Especially the ones you seem to value the most. At least you avoided your objection, “why don’t you just go to streaming?” I guess you must have changed your mind about that one. 😛

1. If “high quality” CD players read until correct that must mean all other non-“high quality” players have problems reading the CDs. if your claim is even true, which I tend to doubt. If it is true that high quality CD players have solutions for incorrect reading of the CD why is there never any discussion of scattered laser light issues in CD players? Is it because everyone accepts on blind faith that CDs are perfect sound forever? 😳

2. The insides of the CD players are not non-reflective. Even if the insides are painted black and the tray is black it doesn’t absorb infrared light. The color black especially if shiny is not very good at absorbing visible light either. No color is good at absorbing invisible infrared light. We’ve already been over that.

3. Scattered light comes out of the CD at many different angles, it even comes out through the outer edge, which is why greening the outer edge has some audible effect, due to absorption of the visible red part. Since the interior of the transport cannot absorb the scattered light, the interior of the transport lights up like a Christmas tree. Since it’s filled with light obviously some of that light gets into the detector. The detector is just some cheap hunk of junk that accepts a range of wavelengths of light. The CD laser emits about 3 x 10^15 photons per second. So there is obviously no deficit of scattered photons inside the transport.

4. As I’ve already pointed out the Reed Solomon error detection/correction codes are not able to deal with the scattered light problem. If they could then the humble Green Pen wouldn’t be audible. Nor would New Dark Matter. The CD laser servo feedback system likewise is incapable of keeping the nanoscale laser beam on the nanoscale data spiral on the CD. That’s why vibration is such a big problem for CD players and why vibration isolation and damping both the CD and transport motor are necessary for best results.
