Post Subject: Ribbons and CelloPosted by Romy the Cat on: 2/21/2007

I noted that cellos “got something” at the bottom after they were Water Dropped. I did not even intended to write about it as it is an ordinary, anticipated and not particularly "exuberant" change. Improving of LF always leads to improving of HF perception (and vise versa). It happens die to multiple reasons and not the last is because our listening awareness get new pointers where are the boundaries of auditable are. Pretend is as the effect of the Gödel's Theorems of Incompleteness applied to sonic practice. No, you do not need to see a doctor if you experience it. You rather needed to see a doctor if you do not experience it.

Nevertheless, there is one effect that I observe with Water Dropped Cello and the Cello-like instruments that I did not anticipate. The Cello’s sounds become kind of more “hairy”.  It picked some very short and very instantaneous overtones.  Without the tweeter a cello sounds like a musician has wet finger on his/her left hands and with the tweeter applied that “overtone hairiness” kind of dry up that left hands and makes the cello tone and the cello playing itself less “conditional” and more self-honoring. This “hairy” effect did not take place in my room with other ribbons that I tried.
