I think what it comes down to is this. If you don't agree with DBT you
will never be impressed with any of the current scientific findings on

It did get better after a couple of weeks but it was still overly

Much more likely is that you retrained your ears/brain to like what you

Please give yourself some time to adjust to the very accurate signal the
TP renders before making a judgement.
To spend an extra 1,6000.00 to get tube coloration ,IMO, is a
monumental waste of money.
