Having been part of my wife's inquiry into the red pen, all I can say is that it does work. The thing about the PWB stuuf is that it is working on the listener and not the system.
I know this is weird, but it did work. Basically here is what she did. I was asked to listen to any cut I wanted, but with the following restrictions. I would have to listen to it three times in a row and do so without opening my eyes either during or between playing times. I will tell you I had no idea what the pen was about, but yes I did know she was working on a review of the product. I chose a CD and we started. After I had played it the first time through I thought to myself that it sounded like it always had, no change. We played it again and at the end I felt that this time it sounded way better, that is I enjoyed it better. Then she hit play a third time and within 10 seconds I asked her to stop the player as it was very annoying. Same cut each time and I ever moved or opened my eyes. She asked my response to the music and I told her that the first time it sounded like always, the second was way more enjoyable, but the third was irritating to say the least.
Asking what she had done, I was informed that nothing was altered the first time, the second time she had written "Reimer> O.K." individually on two pieces of tape and laid one on top of each speaker, but on the third time she replaced these two tapes with ones that said "Reimer NO".
Go figure. Not the most scientific approach, but still kinda spooky.
All I can say is we have used the pen on all of our gear! How it all works... well we're still working on it. She has written two articles on their stuff and is working on more... what a wife!
