Anyway the thread was about a product called Holosync and you can experience a demo disc free of charge, no costs, just fill in an online form. We should all give it a go, it would be a right laugh. See if we can change how we listen to music.

Anyway, my freebee is on it's way.

Then let us know how you get on and pass on the link!

Only $60 !!! And no I will be stuff if I am spenidng £30 on it to know that it does bugger all to my hifi. Guys there are large amounts of guff sold in hifi to people who want to hear differences, RA has made a very successful business out of it. I think it is very fair to say something is plops even if you have not tried it.

IMHO of course.

Now you'll have the mind control conspiracy theorists out in force.
Probably cheaper than Red Stripe though

Spend the money on music instead and stop worrying about silly things that apparently increase the SQ. Or save up and upgraade the major components, like speakers, amp or source.

Im going to go and seal my cables in a waterpump system to prevent airborne contaminates from affect the SQ

Well , got hold of a SID from my dealer earlier today and have just finished having a listen.
FWIW - CDP is an Arcam CD37.
Pre-recorded discs - no noticeable difference in sound at all.
Burned discs - possibly some minor improvements across the frequency range.
Not sure if there is any particular reason that there should be a difference with lossy ( 320 kbps ) music - maybe someone will be able to give a rational explanation.
Worth £20 ? - probably not to me. If I only listened to burned discs then possibly.
Not sure if any of this helps or just muddys the waters a bit more. Yes my observations are purely subjective as at the moment I have neither the time or the inclination to do a bouble blind test
Cheers.

What a fantastic website! There are just so many of those on the Net.
But hey, it's free and I signed up too.
Thanks Karkus.

p.s. I just hope that they won't keep bombarding me with junk mail, mind....

Derek, did you recieve your CD.

Had a go with mine. Weird. Interesting effect as I kept fading the rain and bells in and out of my conciousness and then I became aware of a feeling of anxiety ?
It definitely does something..........although there is no effect on how my Hifi sounds as yet

Yes, thanks.
But haven't listened to it yet, should be able to give it the time it deserves from the middle of next week.
Will post then.
