Do the Audio gods shine upon you?

From What I have learned, there are many types of Synesthesia. Mine in particular can only be equated to ripples in/on the water, but in a 360 degree dispersion. No colors, but it is as if I can see the physical properties of sound propagate thru open space. The "ripples" are in tune with the frequency, - low Frequencies have bigger ripples, and higher tones are tight ripples almost like vibrations in the air.

I just wrote a thread asking for people's information on the matter, but it hasn't been posted for discussion yet. I can tell you that many people that have Synesthesia are musicians. But like I said.....It depends on the type of Synesthesia he or she has.

And even though I don't condone the use of some drugs......
I've seen it happen, and seems to work with Peyote the best. This however is NOT how I experience the effects of Synesthesia.

As far as a soothing effect - it can be incredible. I find myself dozing of in my sound room playing intense rock music, at 120 db plus. Strange? Sure. Do I give a F***? NO!

I hope I shed some light on the subject and look out for future in depth discussion on this topic.

This is yet another mind boggling form of which I had never heard of. Fascinating. I have to do a search to learn more about synesthesia ..

Thank you for revealing a very private part of yourself. I believe many would not.

01-03-13: Abucktwoeighty, I just started a new thread on the topic, so check it out and add or ask anything you'd like!

In your research you may find some very famous musicians have/had this condition. I have been trying to master it like I did with my A.D.H.D. But it is much more complex and it comes and goes. I have no say as to when I experience it, making it difficult to study and use constructively.

It has however allowed me to win several SPL Car Audio Trophy's. For some reason it is easier to see what's going on in the vehicle - audio wise. So I was able to build Sub Woofer systems into the car that made this rouge wave of sorts, compounding the bass waves so that they piled up at the same time, point, and frequency. Resulting in what most Audiophiles run away from, massively exaggerated low end overpressure. (Not very musical as you can imagine)
Although it cost me a few windshields, I still believe it was worth the experience.

For my car I used a pair of 15" Cerwin Vega Strokers in 12 cubic feet (6 per) of ported trunk space eating madness. I added 10 farads worth of capacitance, two 1,000 CCA batteries and a D class amp rated down to .5 ohms. At 4 ohms the amp was rated at 800 watts RMS, take down the impedance and the power output goes up.
2 ohms is 1,600 RMS
1 is 3,200 RMS
and .5 is 6,400 RMS, Peak power output (Spikes) could get as high as 12,000 watts or so. All that adds up to my best SPL number........158.6 db!

Yes, The audio Gods are shining on me. The great thing is it happens EVERY time I listen. Because of "anal" approach to tt set-up!
