Peter Belt, psychoacoustics. yes yes yes......surely just playing a CD cannot improve your system....except I think it has... smoother, clearer, an effect akin to a bit of a power supply improvement. Tried it out first of all in the car CD - no worries if it goes phut - it seemes to have had an immediate improvement - noticeably by taming some of the more Banshee like wailings of La Bush

Has anyone else tried this? To what effect?

Over on the Zero gain forum a demagic has been doing the rounds of members with their input as to its effects. Pop over and have a look.

Hi Mike

I've got one and use it every few months or so. First time I tried it I wasn't impressed, ran it once and felt there was no change. But I persevered and ran it three times on repeat, leaving the room for the ten minutes or so it was on as it really is a ghastly noise at normal listening levels. Better than Sarah Brightman though.

Then I found to my surprise that it certainly had made an improvement in resolution and sheer listenability. A good cheap tweak I think.

Thanks, Bob.

Just been over for a peek and a post; interesting that it has been dismissed by someone that has not tried it...his rationale being that it cannot work, so it does not work and so I don't need to try it.

He might get a surprise if he did....

While attending the University of Calgary, I used to sell t-shirts at the concerts held at the Saddledome. One of the interesting parts of that job was being there early enough to hear the sound checks. Most sound engineers ran some sort of noisy test track through the speakers before the band came on to rehearse. When I asked one of them one day, he said that it loosened up the drivers and that he didn't fully understand it himself, but it just worked.

No, it's not white noise but a lot of tones at various frequencies and levels.
