A good friend who is also a discerning Audiophile told me this.
He purchased 12 Holostages because he had 60 days to return them. He was positioning them around his room but he was frustrated because, although he could already tell that their effect would be transformational, the 12th Holostage was nowhere to be found and without it he he could not achieve the ultimate four-dimensional-like balance he desired.
So he decided to run to Fred Meyer to get some dinner. For those of you who live in different parts of the world, Fred Meyer is a regional supermarket chain we have around here.
Police was playing on the store speakers as usual. But this time, Sting sounded... exceptional, the best my friend had ever heard him. His voice sounded good, he said, imagine that! And the bass was amazingly deep and tight, as if the big freezers in the frozen aisle softly pulsated with enveloping bass whose inky depths were so sweet my friend forgot all about the cat food. But salmon fillets were on sale for 99 cents a pound, so he got that, and it seemed to him that was a really a good price.
The lady at the fish counter sounded like Diana Krall! My friend was enthralled by her mellifluous tones! He was in a great mood now, so he got a big flat of filet mignon for $3, figuring he would freeze it.
At the checkout he reached for his billfold, and - there was the missing Holostage! It had been in his pocket this whole time!
Back home, he positioned his last Holostage thoughtfully on top of his amp, and that old Burmester suddenly sounded like brand new Rotels, no lie! He popped one of his favorite Toni Braxton CDs in his player and sat back, enjoying every instant of perfection.
As he pointed out, why not give Holostages a try since you have 60 days to return them? Chances are you'll want to keep them though, because honestly how many $3 flats of filet mignon does it take for those little gems to pay for themselves? Exactly. And let naysayers say nay.
