Schumann Resonator

Additional comments on the Schumann Generators (above post).  My system is all Ayre electronics, Vandersteen 5A speakers, VPI turntable/plastic arm/Winfield Cartridge...all audiophile outlets, audiophile cables, careful setup, completely differentially balanced.  I turned the generators on with my wife in the room and she most definitely heard a difference.  She said that with the generators, the music was "sharper, condensed".  I agree... with them, the soundstage opened up, the instruments were separated, greater depth ambiance, etc.  I also noticed that with the a/s on the arm  released the sound was better....I have a feeling the a/s device was adding unwanted resonance.  I also have a Sony walkman with Grado in ear headphones....and with the Schumanns on, the sound was better, although quite excellent without.  I read a lot about this, but still don't understand it....I just can tell you it works.   I walked around the room with them and getting them close to the speakers, the sound was more bright/closed in.   I have them about 4 feet in front of and to the outside on a window sill and about 4 feet from the floor.  The more you listen to its abilities, the more you can focus on as to what it does and the more enjoyment.  It doesn't improve my or my wife's sleep, though the dog is now sleeping the night without bathroom breaks at 3 AM

So no one can tell me what they're supposed to do? I honestly have no idea. All I get is some snarky comment from MC about how dare I ask how they work? I don't even know what they do let alone how they do it.

Did you not read the post? If that is your idea of real sweet like no way you been getting any and no wonder you're so cranky.

Well, I just got mine... I got the shiny one with pretty lights. $35ish. Just plugged it in, I don’t know what it is doing, but it IS doing something. My system is no slouch and my room is as treated as it can be practically speaking... and damn, it makes a difference. Hard to quantify at this point, I’m just playing with it, but everything seems to be tighter, more distinct. Wider, higher, deeper. Very surprising. I put it right in front of my listening position at seated ear level. No idea if that is “right”. We will see.

There you go. A man who actually tried an idea, judged the result by ear, and is already wondering how to make it even better. 

What a concept.

Someone like this I would probably explain for free without even asking. All you with attitude, better practice pretending to make all sweet like. 

PS- geof3, when you buy more, get the one for $9.92 or whatever. Three for the price of the one you got. Much better deal.

Meh

We don't know everything, this just in today.

it will be just as interesting and unexpected tomorrow. 

and then another again, the day after that.

science is changing faster than the most quick witted people can handle or take on. It really is moving that fast.

So the backward looking 'cage yourself' (and try to force others so as to feel safe!) into a safe box, people who live through ignorant levels of negative proofing... will not have a single safe little monkey branch to hang on to (while they fling derisive effluent at the mindful explorers who left the tree).

The research team found that atoms of hydrogen, which are very light, provide the bonds that hold the two strands of the double helix together and can, under certain conditions, behave like spread-out waves that can exist in multiple locations at once, thanks to proton tunneling. This leads to these atoms occasionally being found on the wrong strand of DNA, leading to mutations.

Although these mutations' lifetime is short, the team from Surrey has revealed that they can still survive the DNA replication mechanism inside cells and could potentially have health consequences.

Dr. Marco Sacchi, the project lead and Royal Society University Research Fellow at the University of Surrey, said: "Many have long suspected that the quantum world—which is weird, counter-intuitive and wonderful—plays a role in life as we know it. While the idea that something can be present in two places at the same time might be absurd to many of us, this happens all the time in the quantum world, and our study confirms that quantum tunneling also happens in DNA at room temperature."
