    inching toward the edge

    The other night I was well into my third scotch, comfortably placed for the evening in my listening chair, when I noticed the change in musical dynamics when my chin was on my chest. One head position led to another, and I soon found myself pulling on my ears and eventually cupping my hands behind them. I don't know if this little scotch induced experiment pointed to a problem with my own particular ears of with ears in general, but the enhancement of detail and clarity with cupped hand enabled ears was startling. I now feel as if my next upgrade should be ear augmentation, the Krell can wait.The next time your listening to music and your wife isn't watching, cup your hands and place them behind your ears, and then let me know if you would like to order my new product. I'm working on the prototype now. I think I'll call them "Big Ears", and I promise they will be less than a Krell. Or maybe I'll just cut back on the scotch.

    Maybe a pair of these will do the trick!

      Yes! Just look at that expression! It's obviously the first time this kid ever actually heard a brush on a snare drum. However, my product will be much more attractive. :T

        lol i use to cup my ears and listen to things and how they sound differently when i was like 6. Look at the ears on animals, why do you think they have much better hearing. i know its MORE than just that but if you look at the shape of their ears its sort of like a horn..the sound gets "swallowed" in..i think you get what im saying..

            Now that's a tweak! :B

            You know, why don't you submit this to the Advertiser Index, see if you can get distribution and we can do a "Group Buy" here at the htguide?!?!?! :rofl:

              Don't mean to throw cold water on your entepreneurial spirit but I could swear I have seen these before. IIRC they were called BigEars. As for me - the scotch works just fine all by itself :-)
