that it is you who has blocked out further investigation, claiming that all you know and have submitted to has already been discovered by none other than yourself and Peter.
Details of music may well be already contained in the information encoded on a disc or LP: that 100% retrieval of that information is already accomplished is another factor. There are many factors which affect that information retrieval, acoustics, component design, etc.
In other posts on Tweaks, I have noted that adding more batteries to more components in a system soon reaches a point of diminishing returns, where very little gain ( virtually nil in the parlance of se)is noted in the s/n ratio. I suspect it is the point where the information retrieval has been maximized by this particular tweak.
Now the addition of the battery gives a seeming 2 dB increase in volume, Do your tweaks do the same? In fact have you tried this particular tweak yourself, are are you basing it completely on the experience of others or past experimentation on other battery factors?
The fact is the ground tweak is mounted directly onto the circuit of the component. Your removal of batteries does not involve them directly inserted into a circuit of the audio chain. And to tell you the truth, since I have purchased batteries by the bulk ( I have 45 batteries sitting in my "listening" room right now), I hear no degradation in sound from their presence. I would submit that your position should also incorporate such "anomalies" and possibly a change in your position.
Then again having products for sale may preclude you from making a change in position until such product inventory is exhausted.
If you carefully read my past posts, I have never advocated mass distribution of crystals in a room. In fact my realization of the harm of such a practice triggered my experimentation: a large quartz cluster in the center of my listening area adding a harsh upper frequency "ring" to all my music. I have submitted my speculation about crystals and their preferred positioning based on the fact that many are truly piezoelectric, and their positioning should be placed in areas where there is a strong EMI field. The center of a room is generally not a locus of an EMI field. Here, you are taking things out of context, and loosely applying it to suit your argument.
And it is silly to say that the human listener is not reacting to the changes. Of course the human ear is reacting, but it will react to many different changes. The key here is to understand the why's and how's of creating such changes. You can claim morphic resonances, but morphic resonances do not aid predictability, nor effectiveness of such changes.
Just take your boy, GK, who often posts to try this and to try that without making any prediction of how those applications will change sound.
He's simply shooting off in the dark, seemingly without being very precise despite claiming to be a "scientist". Its like reading those claims put forth by the believers of Nostradamus: they can always see events which have already occurred as being predicted, but can't predict in advance.
In fact your post has me very puzzled. You are modifying your previous position in that now you are claiming that the body is reacting to changes in the environment. Now, how can that NOT be so? I've always claimed that the sensitivity of the human body far exceeds most instrumentation we have. Consider the example I've always used: that the best "noses" can distinguish one part per trillion as determined by spectrographic analysis of a cubic volume of air. Since many people seem to be more sensitive to sound than smell, how and what does that translate to hearing?
