Hummmmmm. Isn't "stereo" in and of itself a percieved phenomena?

If you don't believe, then it CANNOT work, and it's all your fault. And your being narrow- minded, you non- believing,sceptical,"how dare you doubt my experience" son of a bitch.A number of years ago, I had a couple of reviewers from Positive Feedback magazine over at my home, trying out various DACs (PS Audio Super Link, Theta Pro Prime, and a battery powered Audio Alchemy DAC In The Box).
I also had a bunch of DIY Mapingo 1.5 inch squares stuck all over the walls/ceiling.
One of the reviewers (a future tweeks editor) went to the bathroom. I took down the majority of the Mapingo. Everything else was left the same (including volume). Immediately, when he came back into the room he asked if we had switched out DACs, as it sounded "completely different".
I can't so easliy explain it away.
