The greatest tweak ever?

Playing my system in a vacuum sounds like nothing I ever heard, especially if the air is really well filtered👍

I'm thinking the entire video of the OP was meant as quite a lot of satire.

I now plan to create a perfect vacuum in my listening room. That should solve the problem....other then having to wear a scuba mask and have a tank of air to breathe of course....also in space, no one can hear you scream.....or play music....

You didn't miss a thing.

i didnt have the patiens to listen. is there actually a tweak or just 6 min of bla bla bla? what is it?

I can't tell who is in on it and who isn't!?!?  Hahahaha

We spent an afternoon setting up to record a b.f.d. organ and chorus recital.

Sound check was great!

We went to dinner (stayed sober) and it rained.

Thank God for the second touch-up rehearsal - everything changed with relative humidity.

That’s not the point. The point is the premise that this fellow has a 'friend' who went to such extreme lengths and expense to duplicate a room, purchase all identical equipment, and even put in an identical solar electrical supply.

Nonsense.

It's amazing to me that supposedly intelligent persons are so Bigoted and appear to be the people that burned witches.  There is NOTHING that suggests this example is not real.  The people who cannot tell differences in changes like this, cables, fuses, power cords, etc  should probably give up on "Audiophile" equipment.  Your lacking in hearing is matched only by your ignorance.

Mushrooms. Biggest, cheapest tweak ever..

LOL!

YEA! I CAN HEAR IT NOW !

I CAN EVEN SEE THE IMAGING! AMAZING!

GROOVY! WOW! COOL!

Makes perfect sense now. I had always heard a noticeable improvement in my systems sound on rainy days. Knew I was not imagining things, because it was so obvious to my ears. Damp weather, high humidity must affect the air in my room in a positive way somehow. Removing dust microscopic particles maybe? I am going to look into an air purifier.

@juanmanuelfangioii 

If you want to see the greatest, most marvelous collection of audio wisdom on the internet, just search this forum for "asap" and filter by user...

Then I remembered that the HEPA filter was on because we’d smoked a huge blunt!

That is the best tweak ever.

I seriously can’t tell if this review is sarcastic 

@barts , That is what it is all about my friend, fun!

Since the op is coearly anally retentive, were he to apply the same principle to his mouth we’d enjoy perfect silence

Ok, so no cliffs. Seems the consensus is "this is a waste of time". So I'll just say El Paso......

I think that makes perfect sense.  I will even add the fact that humidity inside the room will have significant effect on the SQ. The SQ should improve in moist air as the sound wave travel faster in less dense moist air.  Another scientific audiophile's testimony!

@artemus_5 I hear you. If you could not tell this entire video was joke 45 seconds into it you need to un-clutch yourself. 

6:46 of my life is wasted on this crap!

WTH??? Geez, I posted the whole ad about 10 yrs ago as a joke. That was back when mature people posted here. I’m not sure I want to even be in the company of those who have absolutely NO sense of humor. There are some sick puppies here who get offended Far too easy. I’m offended by YOU. But THAT doesn’t count apparently.

Is there any MODERATOR who will give reason for the removal of a joke?

HOW does the post break either rule?

Again @ebm with his pearls of wisdom. (humor)

I only posted this because I found it funny and there is no way anyone in their right mind would believe this. This guy is poking fun at the full spectrum of audiophile and reviewers. 

I don't think I misspelled anything here Roxy again humor. 

@mijostyn 

All in good fun my friend.  BTW beautiful system and wood shop as well!

barts

@mijostyn 

Said the kettle to the tea pot...

@mijostyn 😊 Maybe not. I found myself astonished on how many JLo / Affleck marriage articles there were on Apple News… but I couldn’t not look. Maybe senility works in various ways.

Yeah, I can’t believe I watched to whole video.

Makes as much sense as the science behind $10k cables and $20k dacs, USB reclockers and audiophile switches , oh wait that’s who the video is making fun of idiots who buy into that crap.

This JERK is both ugly and stupid.Ill pass on anything he has to say.

You can always return it if you don't like it.  Might have to be a little "creative" in the language used for the justification for the return:  "The celllos in my system are little thin.  This device didn't help" may not be the best approach.

This Video Opened new vista for Snake Oil sellers?

Expect New AudioPhile grade HEPA selling everywhere, and reviews tests in Audio Mags.

@ghdprentice , come on. You are too smart to be on this thread. 

@barts whats wrong with a little N.2.O between listening friends?

Yes he is a bit off.

   guy is probably a dentist that's been huffing nitrous for years.

Great comments! All I can is that the best sound I ever heard at a rock concert was the Dead @ SUNY Binghamton , NY in 1977 & even though I had already gone beyond my pot smoking days, the auditorium was full of a combo of I’ll guess 75% pot smoke, 15% cigarette smoke & 10% of who knows what smoke?

of course there was no reference smoke free venue for comparison…….

Cliffs?

@rudyb 

You got it man...works something like the "light gas rail gun" the military has.

Oh wait, hydrogen is even lighter, except you'll always be thinking your listening to the finally of the 1812 overture.......DOH

As an aside this guy is probably a dentist that's been huffing nitrous for years.

These units are not that quiet, 

I have a whole home unit with ionizer and the air is fresher ,but to be honest room panels are night and day better . There is a slight improvement and m7n3 is dead quiet cleaning the whole house.,these smaller units are not totally quiet.

Fill your room with Helium ... you won't believe your ears.

I believe in some humans there’s also a connection from the anus to the vocal chords.

This Australian man came up with a foolproof methodology to determine if there are sharks in the water of any beach you were about to swim in. Scientists were dumbfounded at the elegance and simplicity of his method and could not dispute its effectiveness. Want to know what it was?

You walk up to the water. Bend down and scoop up a little of the water. Put the water to your lips and taste it. If it tastes salty, there are sharks in the water.

The OP mentioned “heathens” in his monologue opening, and I’m never one to shy from that descriptive.

Do I need to wrap my house in aluminum foil so the gamma, cosmic, radio, etc waves won’t constitute an interference…?

riccitone.....I believe you may hear a few extra trumpets, if you follow your stated procedure.

Misshaped eardrums caused by a misshaped anus...*long stare into the middle distance*

*sigh* Up to now, the only cause is by having one’s entire head involved, the former into the latter....which promoted higher than normal dB levels, which triggered liquification of the contents of the GI tract ...

Which generally caused a rather explosive episode...and I’ll let y’all draw whatever conclusion about the concussions caused....😏

Obviously, one could consider that this is what befell our friend, the celebrated Mr. K, who we all rally ’round when gifted by his company and enthralled by the insights involved.

However, the experience seems to cause some a similar range of symptoms that relate to the whites of ones’ eyes turning brown, nostril blockage, and clenched lips....

Thanks, @artemus_5 ....a whole new set of (Covid?) ’long form’ backlash to try to ignore....😬

So…

In essence, one would also be led to consider that added particles of one medium or another might actually “color” the sound in some interesting ways? Maybe in the manner that tube rolling can render some major differences in stage and tonality.
I might try a heavy plate of bean burritos smothered in adobe pepper sauce and sliced radishes before my next listening sesh to see what sonic improvements prevail 💨🔥🥲 👍🏼

I hate RC. I was thinking of Room Correction, but you can make what you want of it.

Well perhaps that's a bit of an exaggeration as I only have experience with Audyssey. I hate that it ruins SQ, and I'm fairly certain they would all be similar in that regard.

Perhaps a stand alone unit with its own power supply could be better than an all in one box.

How much does it cost?

Who does it more scientifically than Anthem’s ARC?

You know I noticed that labels / signs tell you all you need to know about an enterprise. For instance: “Honest John’s”… a crook, “Authentic X”… not authentic, “Scientific Audiophile”… not scientific… a lunatic. My partner and I pick out signs along drives and on TV.

Yeah, brilliantly deductive...

And who's gonna believe his 'friend' built an exact duplicate of his listening room down to the exact same gear and cable risers. I think the room is as imaginary as his friend.

I agree!

Mike

@artemus_5

Ok, I am amused and disgusted… well mostly amused.

I have a big HEPA filter down here, maybe that is why my system sounds so good.

An amazing use of science… oh, what science? He means he thought about it. Yeah, that is the same thing.
