Feeling Tweaky
mijostyn Geoffkait, you see? People do know when you are joking or being serious. It’s fine to have obtuse thinking but you have to display it carefully with strangers. Must of us are just plain dumb. I include myself in that category. >>>>>I gratefully accept your advice, coming as it does from someone who I strongly suspect displays himself to strangers frequently. |
Mijoststyn, I appreciate your cynicism on tweaks, having been repeatedly criticized for being too cynical myself ever since being a teenager. On the other hand maybe there are a few things, like you've done with your system, that may be sensible and helpful. I aim to try and winnow them out, especially the low and no cost ones. My long career in Corrections has been an excellent training ground for weeding out BS. That is 90% or more of what you hear every day, and have to sort out the truth from in that setting. There's always someone inventive enough to get over on you though. Mijostyn, In my reply to your first post on this thread I'd asked you a question or two. Would you mind re-reading those and let me know your answers, as I was thinking of following your advice on a thing or two you've done with your system. Thanks. Mre28m5, I'll add your suggestions to my list of products to look up. Thank you. Tantejuut, your ideas and products suggested are added to the list too. Thanks, Mike |
So now books are bad in a listening room? Can’t say I’ve ever heard anyone ever say this. My take, a combination of reflective and absorbing materials in an average room will in essence average out the sound period. All this room treatment crap is for the birds. Just furnish and decorate the room properly, and dont just listen in a room with walls lined with mirrors and windows for example....I dont get all the obsession with this. A pillow here, a throw over there...a picture hung here or there, a nice stuffed chair or couch over there, a scatter rug, some hard surfaces such as a table maybe? You know, its called a room you live in? Not a prison. My goodness...I’ll do what I want, cause it’s my room and i gotta live in it. I’m not rich and can’t afford an addition or a divorce for that matter. This forum drives me nut sometimes, talk about being anal and obsessed. I do not think any speaker manufacturer envisioned any user of a particular speaker going to these lengths just to get acceptable sound. If the speaker sounds that aweful in your average furnished room, then maybe it’s just crap....all my own opinion. I've done none of these tweaks and my system sounds fine, unless I'm deaf or i just lucked out...who knows... |
Books are bad because of the morphic fields they put out. There’s a whole website devoted to tweaks and my personal favorite, the Teleportation Tweak for long distance system upgrades. One phone call anywhere in the world and you will hear your system improve while talking on the phone. Truly amazing stuff! But seriously, morphic fields. Its how the Teleportation Tweak Works! http://www.machinadynamica.com/machina43.htm |
