a crazy free audiophile tweak


i discovered this because I have a block middle ear tube in my right ear.

but, if you place your open palms just behind each of your ears, listening like this vs normally there is a huge significant sound quality improvement

not sure how practical this will be, but maybe someone can invent a pair of add on ear extenders---

funny as it sounds, try it!

Actually, I have tried it and I generally don't like it as it makes the sound a little too closed in and bright for me, but my speakers are very wide disperion and I prefer that open sound. As my system is changing and I'll be doing more nearfield listening that may change.

Onhwy 61 is right, Sam Telling did tout (actually, I think he was having some fun with us) a product like this and there was a picture of him wearing them, I believe they were called Serious Listeners, and they were ear-like extensions you put on your ears to make them bigger. Very funny looking things.
If you have a stiff dinner matt, and a high back listening chair,place the matt behind your head positioned so it comes above your ears ,sit back and be amazed ....no sh-- !
@Tls49, you know. When i read the topic, the first image in
your post came to mind. Funny
lmfao...I prefer not to look like Goofy while listening to my tunes. That wouldn't be good at all, be my luck have to answer the door and forget had em on. Too funny!
