Bybee claims noise reduction. You're claiming treble reduction. Which is it?
This is hardly magic. Its both - lower noise generally translates into reduced 'tizziness'. But only for people who listen to such details - not everyone hears it.
tizziness - whats the difference between this phenomenon and, say, the sound of rivets in a cymbal that is vibrating slightly?
Or a slightly crisp reed in a wind instrument?
An overdriven electric guitar's not-quite-closed string?
Any high frequency, slightly abnormal but instrument sourced sound?
And how would the clever little bybee know...?

and no-one can measure it.
How do you know no-one can?
Just like magic....
Indeed - levitating a statement like yours in thin air with no visible means of support is indeed magic. How do you do that?
I regret that I don't have precise language skills adequate to the task. I know what 'tizzy' is, perhaps it is my own personal definition. I have heard it in electronics equipment for the last 50 years, but perhaps it is something that I cannot share here.
It has been MY personal experience that the Bybee devices remove 'mid-high frequency garbage' that sometimes even seems to be a reduction in information. I considered this strongly, at one point, to be the case. The point is that they do 'something', usually for the better. The closest approximation to what I am referring to would be the removal of crossover distortion from a mid fi power amp.

Its a really easy question to answer - this answer will do for all the questions you raised except the last. This tizziness is a system artifact, not an artifact of the the music played through the system. So let me put the question back to you and see if you can answer it for yourself. If you look at the world through a dirty window, how do you tell when the dirt's on the window and when it's in the world?
If you can answer that question then your last question dissolves does it not?
It was measured, but you ignored the measurement. Bybee had it measured over 15 years ago, and I put it up. All I got was rocks thrown, but nobody tried to measure it the same way.

Don't worry John, those who deny it exists just haven't educated their ears to be able to hear it. I hear it everywhere I go now - cafes, restaurants and dessert houses. All electronically reproduced music in public spaces seems to suffer from it. Which to me is one hell of a market opportunity.... 😛

And yet, no one seems to have done it without peeking. Least of all the people noisily promoting it.

Perhaps you misunderstood what I wrote. Go back and read it again - you're (quite characteristically as it happens) changing the context. That would be to create a pretext 😀

Who they?
IOW, you've got bupkis as far as evidence.
Oh dear, yet another fail. Try a third read?
I hate to spoil the party but there are other threads for this. I will do a little cleaning soon and ask that you debate these things elsewhere. I will try and get back to testing when I have time. Right now I'm working on another boombox so it may be a day or two. 😉
Try a third read?
No thank you. Understood the first time. I'll respect Carl's request.
perhaps "tizziness" is derived from the original in Gibberish... 🙂
Sorry for the to in your thread Cal... I shall now behave.
