I thought it was an interesting episode with all those subwoofers and all.
But I think I found a flaw. In order for the brown note to make you lose bowel control, don't you have to feel like going to the bathroom before being exposed to this note in high spl? I mean, if you don't have **** in your colon and large intestines ready to be released, nothing is going to come out, right?

Ha ha lol. Sometimes I think they're more interested in showing off their "bigger and more destructive" version of the myth than trying more variables with the actual one.

Quit watching TV and you won't have to worry about crap like that. (Pun intended)If you can't hear a difference, don't waste your money.

Now That.......... just might make some brown notes/stains. -
It wouldn't be the first time they were wrong. I know from first hand experience that one of their results isn't as accurate as they think.My equipment sig felt inadequate and deleted itself.
