Ok, but does your audio gear have rotons (metamaterials)?

Not yet. But get ready for the LS50 Meta Meta.

"A group of researchers is working on metamaterials that "grow" rotons. Metamaterials exhibit optical, acoustic, electrical, or magnetic properties that are not found in nature.…Thus, it might be possible in the future to better manipulate sound waves in air or in materials, for example, to bounce them back, redirect them, or create echoes. These materials have not been demonstrated experimentally yet; however, it should be possible to produce them by using technologies such as ultra-precise 3D laser printing." https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2021/06/210610135559.htm

    I'm only about 25 minutes into the video that rodman9999 provided and when I came to the pun Fysiks (invented by the hippy physicists), a light bulb went off over my pate. 
    Knowing that Rob Reiner was a child of those times, I wondered when he wrote and directed The Princess Bride, if he named Andre the Giant's character Fezzik, to commemorate, in some manner, those physicists. 
     Fezzik was always considered dense and slow but always came through, not to mention having the worst rhyming puns imaginable.

All the best,

I create my own "sonic bliss bubble" by imbibing a good glass of burgundy. The burgundy ends up dispersing the old fashioned way.
That cocoon I feel is the good old warm and fuzzies that I always get.

    Nice food for thought there @rodman99999 . Passing onto another dimension instead of flat out disappearing gives me some solace. Maybe that bright light that's purported to be seen at our passing is just the tiniest of wormholes meant to accommodate our next move.
    Maybe only certain bodies can accommodate certain energies and all matter holds all energies, with ours being one of the highest orders of energies. 
     Animating these bodies is just the way things are done.

All the best,
