For instance, on a well recorded human voice, the singer moved to the appropriate height, well above the top of the speakers, assumed a more three dimensional position - forward or backward within the soundstage, and the size of the singers mouth shrunk to the size of a real mouth - not some diffuse blob. All of a sudden, I could close my eyes and imagine that there really was a singer standing there in front of me. For me, the things worked.

Thanks for asking.

Juilian,

I will be ordering a set of the svettes and rollerblocks soon. Will let you know what I think. Thanks for taking the time to post pictures and your thoughts. Rob
