Your systems are so good that that "Absolute" silence between tracks makes you susceptible to "hallucinations"! lol

    From the link:

    "The room holds the current Guinness World Record as the quietest place on the planet, and companies from all over the world seek out its unique acoustic properties. The walls of the chamber are lined with sound-absorbing baffles that can capture noise and mute it in an instant. This allows companies — both Whirlpool and Harley-Davidson have visited — to test just how noisy their products are without the risk of outside interference."

    Now the whole world knows where Harley-Davidson developed their perfect noise! :cool:

    I read an article about sensory deprivation. It had to do with water at body temp causing convulsions.
    Too much **** to list....

    That's got nothing to do with the room.

    That's just doro and his inappropriate touching.

    The room is REALLY quiet though.
