Schumann Resonator

The most likely explanation I know that fits all the facts is a Schumann generator adds dither, and this improves our aural perception of sound the same as it improves our visual perception of images.

i was thinking so in a way analogous to a kind of mechanical dithering effect but in the electromagnetic dimensions where the fine line imposed by the ratio signals/noise emerged audibly ...

The reason why i was thinking so it that the S. G. without modification add acoustically something to the listener envelopment experience and to the relation between imaging and soundstage...

But when i was experimenting with shungite i was really surprized to observe the compression of the sound when i put the shungite only on the capacitors...
When i tried with  only herkimer diamond the effect was opposite: a decompression... In the 2 cases it was not always ideal musically but when i added the 2 together there is a balancing very optimal musical effect... Especially when i transformed the shungite with copper tape in what i called a "golden plate"...

Then the S.G. act on the electrical grid itself of the room and gear not only like a dithering effect...But i am not a scientist for sure...

Then the S.G. act on the electrical grid itself of the room and gear not only like a dithering effect.

I will correct my formulation: the dithering effect come from the action of the S.G. directly through the electrical grid noise floor, like my experiment suggested to me with the shungite and H.D.

The radio waves put out by the SG are picked up by the wires in the AC grid equally as well as the wires in the components in the system. I don't even distinguish between them. The grid is the system as much as anything else.

The grid is the system as much as anything else.

I think so...

If not how in the world my shungite and H.D. can modify , compress or decompress the sound?

That is my point...

It is the reason also why my "golden plates" work all along the electrical grid...Decreasing the noise floor .....





One thing acoustically interesting is that the S.G. seems to act increasing the "Listener envelopment factor "...I add more than 2 one year ago because of this perceptive fact, easy to confirm by an experiment where i was gradually decreasing the number Of S.G. being "on" in my grid of 12.....

For the reader is this internet definition:

«Listener envelopment LEV is the degree to which the reverberant sound seems to surround the listener—to come from all directions. In the best halls, sound waves are free to travel around the overhead spaces, front, sides and rear of the upper sidewalls giving to the listener the feeling of being immersed in the sound.»

"listener envelopment" acoustical factor was an experience not often described in audio thread but perfectly acoustically precise...

With the introduction of my mechanical equalizer, my room being more in controls, i perceived it very clearly, especially with musical  files where the recording engineer use many microphones on the theater scenes....Some voices were coming from behind my head....In a 2 speakers stereo system i had never experimented that before because my room was not acoustically enough under controls...

The Helmholtz mechanical equalizer controls the response of the room to the speakers with the ears acting like the main tool, reacting not to a test frequency for a very precise location in millimeter sended to a mic like in electronic equalization but to the first wavefront coming from the timing of early and late reflection with the direct sound of the speakers for the human ears than for all locations in the room and not only a "sweet spot" .....

I myself have been underwater with 2 chn.surround sound for many years..First with my modified Dunlavy SC4's and for the last many years with the 3rd revision of the Caravelle speaker..soon to be the 4th relife. A constant over that time has been the mechanical grounding inside and out of  every component, Argent  Room Lens  (Mr.Helmholtz) acoustic angles on ceiling and floor, acoustic paint, active laminar flow enhancement device..and treatment of incoming AC with enhancement coating..
That's all for now..until tomorrow.
