The Echofone has better sound quality by far than
the Neurophone. From what I observed, heard, and felt, the
Echofone transducers augmented the total experience by filling
in the missing high frequency sounds that just aren't heard
with headphones alone - not necessary because of inferior
headphones, but because of the ear's limited range of detection
(limited frequency response).
I use the Echofone for listening to music, dolphin and whales
recordings, and psycho-acoustic recordings of various sorts.

Experiments with the Echofone have shown that the longer you
use the device, the effects become more pronounced and the
effectiveness of the device increases. The effects you get
with the Echofone are also cumulative and become more noticeable
with daily use.
The first time I used the Echofone I had good results and
I noticed that the perception of higher frequencies, fidelity
and spatial effects improved significantly every week.
In my opinion, the best type of music to listen to when you
start using the Echofone is classical music because it contains
a broad range of frequencies which conditions the brain's
response and gives you a good experience of the spatial sounds
effects and increased fidelity. - Mike Mazurkiewicz - Ft

You can input audio from any source (PC sound card, CD or
cassette player, etc.) into the Echofone. The Echofone will
then distribute the signal to the headphones and electrodes.
The electrodes have a frequency response beyond 100,000 Hz.
The Echofone brightens music and helps folks like me hear
high frequencies. I was a Cobra pilot for 10 years in the
Marine Corps. Being around jet engines that long has taken
a toll on my hearing above 10,000 Hz. The piezo-electrodes
really enhance the high frequencies for me. - Wayne Nolan

The Echofone sound system brought the sense of being the actual
instrument that is being played upon or spoken into by the
performer, even when the voice is being used reflexively for
reading aloud. This is a terrific way to relearn the felicitous
concentration and attentive listening that generations have
lost through crude technology.
The ancients used the lively voice (viva voce) to enhance
their reading experience all the time. One feels the system
nourishing itself on its own entuned spiritual food with this
machine. It removes much of the phoniness and distance from
the headphone experience and makes it possible to feel more
comfortable with extended listening.
The Echofone grabs the whole body with more traction than
old fashioned phones alone. This is where the sound meets
the hound, if I may say. Echofone sound feeds the sensorium
more than headphones alone do. More plentiful in its overall
coverage and penetration than "black and white" sound, it
resonates naturally in the vernacular of the nervous system
because it is patterned on and directly connected with the
80 per cent of the body that is water. - John Rhoads -

When I first plugged in my Echofone, the music I choose was
Scheherazade by Rimsky-Korsakov. I was captivated rather quickly
by the music, it was much richer and fuller than I ever heard
it before. For the next two weeks, Scheherazade would at times
stream into my brain and the melodies were as vivid as during
my initial session. By adding the Echofone to your repertoire,
more of your brain is engaged in the experience. The Echofone
is a must when you want to maximize the effect of sound. I
think the potential for learning using the Echofone is enormous!

I use an Echofone with much success. For about two hours after
use I'm almost brilliant, ok, ok, at least the insights are...
It does help me think more clearly with greater self-realizations
and insights into others. VERY vivid dreams - wow, the colors.
Did you ever see that Dick Tracy movie? Yep, those are the
colors. Also, the content of my dreams seem to be more 'productive.'
This is with a theta brainwave cd. And since I started using
Innertalk Lucid Dream CD with the Echofone I have at least
two lucid dreams every night, sometimes up to five. Wishing
you success on your journey. - Barbara Bovee - Albuquerque,
