Holostages - critical review

[Chop]

These are remarkable things Ron.

By any chance did you have somebody help you to do this blind?

Woul;d be hard as it takes 4 days for stabilization / break-in. Hard to imagine how I could imagine this huge change- steady day after day now. Recordings I have listened to for 50+ tears (yipes!) are so much more tonality complete ( the bell at the begining of a John Lennon song sounds like METAL, Phil Och's acoustic guitar ( in a ratty sounding live set) is epxlosive and you can hear the nylon strings for the first time as nylon.) I have had no results from many tweaks and the first set of these (back and front) had clear break in (no bass on day 2, confused on day 3 then wonderful thereafter )whilst the second set on the sides never sounded bad, just gradually improved- my point is although not PROOF of objectivity these events are not likely to be based on my unconsciously held expextations. Additionally when I went from 1 to 2 in each location they had zero effect stacked or at 90 degree angle; 2 only better than 1 at 45 degree angle- again hard to imagine imagining this!

TLDR:

WTF are these. A friend recommended them to me. I now have dozens of them. Maybe they absorb inductive field RFI like Bybee and Shunyata products. Better sound: Less smeary and better focus, better pace, rhythm and timing, more holographic. I can't live without them.

Why would you need dozens of them? Seems like overkill.

He got me turned on to the Townshend speaker cables and Synergistic power cables-- which I see you also have. I don't know him through forums but he's a good friend and I have no regrets about buying my Townshend and Synergistic that he recommended to me.

Well even a blind Squirrel finds an acorn now an then, referencing the MC not you. BTW I sent SR cables back. All LessLoss PC now.

Gotta love being against something you have not heard.

Not what he said.

 

[Republicoftexas69]

Some people get an idea in their head and build reality around it. Thank God we don't pick Presidents that way....

Right.

IGNORE + RANT =?

Holostage ?

 

[Jeff4598]

Holostage ?

IGNORANT

 

[Republicoftexas69]

IGNORANT

Not hearing it. Psychoacoustics could it be?
Another question that has never been answered is why do people need so many of these things to get the desired effect or psychoacoustics. The more you spend on widgets the better it sounds.

I would order a set to try if there were real information on the Heartsound site... it wont even load.

Would love to see the science here.

There is a real science behind this product with many chemists and academics collaborating and contributing to the technology over many years.

I'll just listen.

I'll just listen.

Not me I am an engineer and a scientist. So why do you need 8 of these for it to sound good? Still have not seen a logical explanation for that.

One set of 4 is plenty to achieve a very noticeable change/improvement. More allows you to further tune the room to your liking by placing additional Holostages in different locations. Half the fun is experimenting. If you don’t like what you hear, just return them. They are so effective, I doubt very seriously many have been returned.

Thanks Mac.
