Nope, it's not BS. I think its more system dependent than anything. What I'm finding through conversations with other members is that some tweaks, like those wall socket plug-in thingies (I forgot the name of them again), counteract other tweaks. Either that or its a hearing problem of some sort. Or maybe we're just listening for different things?
On proving it through measurements, I've personally measured each upgrade through one of the most accurate measurement devises known to man ... the human ear. Not as good by far as the ears on dogs, but good enough to be used throughout the ages for a variety of things, including the preservation of the species.
