However, when I first started using them, I swear I noticed an improvement. New tweak bias perhaps? That's possible. My thoughts:
When first used one last year:
"I swear I hear a difference. A little more depth?
Tried on a bunch of different music.
Hard to pinpoint what the difference is."
A month later
"More authority to the music; a tighter grip. A little more depth as well."
Did notice more authority when I first used them. Has now blended in as the norm. I initially felt a little spaced out.
