Having studied a good deal of quantum physics...

[Disclaimer: My training is in physics, and if that invalidates my opinion to you, do not read any further.]

I find reading PWB beyond absurd. I think it's safe to say I have been exposed to the basic accepted theories of quantum, worked through dozens of wave equations, perturbation theories, variational principles, and ridiculously grueling integrals that mathematica 4.0's poor little kernel can't hope to solve, and it is utterly clear that PWB tries to use concepts of physics that they don't expect audiophiles to understand, by sprinkling physics buzzwords amongst totally ridiculous phrases. They have absolutely no understanding of particle/wave nature, or any clue as to what an observable is. Their description of the double slit experiment as a "paradox" that has defeated "scientific investigations to resolve" tells me they've probably never read ANYTHING on modern physics or wave mechanics. Another nag: it can be proven using group theory alone that physics is independant of coordinate system or formulation. What if I want to analyze my listening room in momentum space? or configuration space? We no longer have an x-coordinate! What do I write on my CDP then?. In physics, we often say that "if you can't explain it to someone else, then you don't understand it." It is certainly more than clear to me that they don't understand LOTS! There is so much wrong here, I just don't know where to begin.

They're trying to explain how their revolutionary products revise and improve upon conventional physics and science that they can't even begin to describe properly. Outside of the physics, the bad science, and all the prejudices of my "conventional thought", I think it's fair to say you can't call something wrong if you have absolutely no idea what it is.
