For more "casual" listening, or filling our small apartment with wonderful music, the Turquoise tweak seemed to present a noticible improvement.For more "critical" listening, or seated in the sweetest spot, I actually heard less resolution and presentation of more subtle aspects of sound delivery, such as the artist's breathing (Starker, Jordi Savall) on solo cello or viola de gamba recordings, less of the resiny tinge of the bow, less of the lip smack from Buddy Guy on his Blues Singer recording, less of the ambience of the chirping crickets on Santana's "Eternal Caravan of Reincarnation"...
These are subtle things and possibly I should be more concerned with the music than of extraneous... recorded sounds...that make up the overall presentation of the recording, but these things added up to my missing them when noticing they had essentially disappeared. Seems the recording studio brought into my room lost a little of its liveliness and detail. I just wasn't enjoying listening to music quite as much.
It IS always something, and it's those little things (and sounds) in life that make a difference. I'm glad I tried the tweak, was very pleased to deal with Geof at MD (he runs a very professional operation) and happy you're enjoying this tweak.
It just didn't do it for my system or ears...
