You guys are way too funny. Too bad they closed most of the mental institutions. Its obvious that I hit the intended nerve in my last post. You are way too transparent guyz, way too transparent.

Since when does one need an advanced engineering degree in electronics to determine what one hears through one's own ears? Come on man, some of the most socially backward people I know have engineering degrees. Not taking anything away from engineers of course, but they DO march to the beat of a different drummer.
Like all personality types, engineers have their own specific fears ... mainly the fear of criticism. Heck, I've known engineers who cannot even take a simple suggestion let alone a criticism without blowing a cork.
When engineers buy, they buy based upon 90% logic and 10% emotion. The world of the vast non-insane buys based upon 90% emotion and 10% logic.
Engineers suffer from analysis paralysis, while the non-insane world has no problem making decisions within seconds that would take the engineer weeks, if not months to make.
I spent 40 years of my sales career selling real estate ... a business that most folks posting here would flat out fail at. I've actually had engineers ask me how thick the friggin' drywall is. What? Was I supposed to drill a hole and measure the thickness?
My favorite was the guy who showed up for his final walk-through wearing a short sleeved striped dress shirt, a pair of plaid shorts, black socks and wing tips. He was smoking a pipe and blew smoke under the kitchen hood to see how effective the exhaust fan worked. At least he didn't have his hat on backward .... but I just couldn't miss the slide rule in his shirt pocket. :-)
I hope the naysayers continue posting their nonsense in the thread. Every time they post, they bump the thread to the top of the list exposing it to an international audience. I have no doubt that once the word gets out about Tim's product, it will sell like hotcakes.
What exactly does "Total Contact" do for an audio system?
1. Increases the holegraphic effect of the presentation.
2. Increases the realism of the instruments - much more organic.
3. A "see through" quality (at eight weeks) that was totally unattainable before.
For the price of $299.99 a sane person would think its a bargain. The mentally challenged? The guy with the loose wire? The guy with the ax to grind? Well, they're on their own and will remain marching to the beat of that different drummer wondering what the hell just happened ... as they continue bumping this thread in the direction of north.
Thank you for that ...
