Quack System Upgrades

I heard about an audio tweak that is supposed to enhance the sound of any audio system. It involves a particular green weed that only grows in certain locales. Supposedly it has to be harvested at just the correct time to obtain the full audible effectiveness. Once harvested it is dried and any seeds are removed (they don't like heat) and placed in a bowl with a hole in it. It is then burned like incense and the emerging smoke is supposed to noticeably enhance the listening experience now isn't that the craziest thing you ever heard...........oh, wait!

@asvjerry I think you have your sci-fi references mixed up. "Spindizzy" is the anti-gravity technology from James Blish's "Cities in Flight" series

Hi eddy,

I don't doubt that having quality acoustic instruments in your listening room is effecting the sound. Resonances create sound. Ever noticed sympathetic woofer movement of unused speakers in your listening room? Snares rattling and drum head vibrations from drums exposes to certain frequencies of sound? Deliberate use of the sympathetic resonances of quality acoustic instruments (not unused speakers lol) to the benefit (or detriment) of room acoustics is as solid in theory as using the many audiophile devices sold to do the same thing.

I think that controlled experimentation in type, quantity, and placement of the instruments is the key.

Best to you  eddy,
Dave

folkfreak, no, that's Precisely what I meant, but just got my authors' 'spun'...to place a pun on my goof....

Memory fails....aging 'wetware'...along with all the other stuff.  If it don't hurt, it don't work, more or less. *sigh*

Thanks for the correction, tho'...there's a little cartoon vid of a city taking off for those following the magic mouseklicks re Blish and the CIF series, BTB...major urban renewal technique potential there... ;)

dlcockrum/Dave...No offense taken, so no problem exists. *G*  As a southern CA native and a 'child of the 60's', much too laid back to take umbrage.  Besides, I suspected there was a sly snicker in there... ;)

"A ridiculous motor"....Having grown up in and with L.A. 'kar kulture' (drag strips, highly 'massaged' vehicles, 'rat bikes'....you name it, I've seen and heard it...), I have too many clues as to what that could encompass.  First thought was a nitro-burning 2 stroke bike motor....potentially a 'one run' motor...*HowwwwlBANG!*  That could be expensive entertainment...;)

...but I have a rather odd take on things....*G*

Yeah, AVL's a cool place to hang one's hat.  Got a brewery and good pizza joint a 10 min. stroll away from this desk.

 I  must   show   Restraint   .  Daily.  *L*
