lessloss blackbody

I'm not too young to remember The Bionic Woman, but I don't remember her as a spokesperson for Select Comfort. I was on the East Coast then. Maybe the Select Comfort commercials were on the West Coast?

In any case, thanks for getting me up to speed.

I have 7 Blackbodies in the system. The work fantastic and I have to admit that even the step from 6 to 7 is very cleary audible.

$815 x 7 = $5705

Am I alone in thinking that's an awful lot of money for tweaks? Or am I out of touch with the amount of disposal income available to people on this website?

Imagine if someone bought 10 for a small room! Or is there a point of saturation? Is there a limit to the miracle?

Surely, you've heard of the Cumulative Effect?

I've heard one or two power conditioners (I know we're not discussing power conditioners, but the effect I'm going to discuss is similar) that created "blackness" between the notes. What I found was that this blackness between the notes sounded unnatural to me. In a live performance, or even in a recorded performance, there is seldom silence so lacking in ambient sound that it sounds "black".

Some tweaks I've tried have also resulted in this "blackness" between notes. I've never favored the result.

Music has room ambience. Without it, the recording seems artificial.

Rja makes a good point about the owners of the Blackbody.

My point was that sometimes a certain sonic characteristic is initially interesting and may seem to be an improvement, but upon further consideration it is not preferrable.

I don’t know if this applies to the Blackbody, but it’s a phenomenon to consider when evaluating products.

...the bionic woman actually uses a Sleep Number bed which she paid for with her own money.

OK, I'm usually pretty good at comedic analogy, but this one is over my head.
