Tin Foil Hat Audio

As I read the discussions about questionable tweaks I often have to remind myself that just because I can’t hear it doesn’t mean it isn’t there. Just because there is no instrument capable of objectively quantifying a difference doesn’t mean it isn’t there. Just because there is no generally accepted physical mechanism to account for a difference doesn’t mean it isn’t there. 

I think I owe an apology to psychics, mediums, and witches among others. Maybe they also perceive things I just can’t. 

Is it shiny side in or out when making a tin foil hat? How many layers?

Is there a laboratory instrument that can measure emotional response?
I don't know why I generally am more engaged when listening to vinyl over digital formats... I can't hear an audible difference.

Technically these days, it's an aluminum foil hat.
Just doesn't have the same flow, though.

Zm, the placebo effect is usually around 50%. Some of It is coincidental.
About 80% of everything I see in the office on a daily basis is going to get better whether I do anything or not. 

I do believe expectation bias is real.  As far as wizardry is concerned, every time I have made a solid improvement in my system there was a darn good reason why.  Some of the reasons perpetrated by marketing are laughable.

What I object to is companies that intentionally play on our gullibility to make money.  This is unfortunately very common.

This doesn’t strike me as a very gullible group.
