In my case, I compared enABLEd Lowthers with nonenABLEd Lowthers, and the enABLEd Lowthers were clearly better in several ways, with no downsides. Also, the change was significant. As Jon ver Halen of Lowther America said, the benefits were audible in a separate room, which helps to indicate the level of improvement.
I have read very few negative comments on the threads which discuss this technique. I find it interesting that you seem to know many who did not like it. What did they not like about it? Have you heard positive comments as well?
I agree that it is hard to pinpoint what actually is going on with the drivers, and from what I understand, there really are only theories of why the treatment changes the drivers. But I certainly did hear the improvement. When I put the nonenABLEd drivers back in, I almost did not want to listen to my system anymore because the loss of sound quality was so great.
