Why do some people find the color green to be calming when it cannot be scientifically proven to be calming? I know a couple of `philes who are Belt enthusiasts. Not just fans, but real enthusiasts. If it works for them, fine. Personally, I believe I have much better ways to spend my money, but to each his or her own.I have simply reached the point where if somebody tells me their system sounds better when they wear a Big Bird costume, or maybe even use the skeletal remains of chickens as isolation devices, my thoughts are basically "Good for you". Then I go on about my business.
But that's just me.
