a crazy free audiophile tweak

Of course cupping hands improves the gain, like a satellite dish diameter, but it also interferes with or changes some other things like frequency response and soundstage/ambiance. The biggest effect is when the system dynamic range is kind of compressed or when playing at low volumes. My first product was going to be Ortho Ears but it never made it out of R&D. :-)

I've been looking for the antique ear funnel horns. But try finding those in a matched set!

It might be easier to just move your speakers so one is facing each ear. You know, like your head is the meat of a sandwich.

TLS49, ROFL...That's just waaay too funny.
Hope my wife doesn't see those, as she'll probably try to get them for my birthday. Last year it was this neatly wrapped present of river rocks after she saw the Machina Dynamica pebbles ads and laughed her head off. My audiophilia gets NO respect here.
