Shannon's Journal Discussion Volume 3

[Shannon]

Shannon,

will Overcome erectile dysfunction/overcome premature ejaculation be updated to 5.5g? If so will there be a discount for those that bought them and who couldn't get results from them?

They will be updated eventually. When they are upgraded, there will be a discount if you did not get results from the previous version. I don't know if they will be upgraded in 5.5G or 6G yet.

If you can, set up speakers. I pretty much went through the same thing with sleephones. Either they would fall off or I was subconsciously taking them off. When I switched to speakers I started getting way more consistent progress. It's doable with one or two loops, but when you hit the higher loops it's very hard to keep those on your ears through the night.

But the speakers are like the weakest audio source to use right? You have to put in earbuds/ something for your left and right ear, the program is designed to specifically work your left ear with sounds and your right ear.

I don’t know what the effects will be when using speakers, I think alot less.
I’m already having trouble with listening much hours, I think it’s a hassle. I thought 1 hour of listening would be good, now you need to actually listen the whole day in order to make some progress.

I'll let you in on something that not a lot of people on the forum seem to have noticed. Shannon - the Maestro Himself - uses the MONO speaker on his mobile phone to listen to subs. No fancy headphones or speakers. If it's good enough for him, it should be good enough for the rest of us.

To reiterate, you don't need the "perfect" listening setup. If there's a 1-3% drop in "effectiveness," it's not enough to be significant when it comes to assimilating and executing the script of the subliminal. You'll be fine.

I've read through the FAQ and I really wonder why @Shannon uses a mono speaker...

This is from the FAQ: ''Headphones maximize the stereo separation, and therefore produce the best results; stereo speakers are next best, and work better if you can use them facing one another with your head between them, similar to headphones. Mono speakers, as found on many cell phones, are serviceable, but not the best way to play subliminals.''

and this: ''You need stereo speakers and headphones for best results with our subliminals. Part of the build process introduces three dimensional audio, which is designed to force both hemispheres of your brain to work together as a single whole to process the subliminal and thus gives much better results.

If you listen to one of my subliminals in mono, therefore, you will only be getting about half the information. Because it is only half the information, and suddenly your brain is no longer being forced to work as a whole, you won’t even get half the impact that you would from using stereo.

if there is ANY other choice, DO NOT USE MONO! If you ever ask me about a speaker and I suggest it, but it is a mono speaker, you know I did not see or know that. I will never suggest a mono appliance if I know it is mono.''

So clearly Mono speakers are the worst option which gives you the worst results... Why does @Shannon listen on his mobile mono speakers then?

Because Shannon has no other way to use them without having problems.

And I found this: ''I have recently realized that a lot of people are using the subliminals in a way I did not expect, which is, they are trying to use it through their cell phone’s built in speakers.

This does not work unless your cell phone has stereo capable speakers, and even then, it’s not a good idea. Here’s why.

The majority of my subliminals use a method called Stereo-Spatial Effects (SSE) which is intended to cause both brain hemispheres to work together to decode the subliminal audio and make sense of it. The end result, as it turns out, is a greater than 100% response because of the effect of the resultant hemispheric synergy.

When you use a subliminal that uses SSE technology and play it through a mono speaker, which nearly all cell phone speakers are, you are only playing one of the two stereo channels. This kills the SSE.

The result is that you are now hearing bits and pieces of the subliminal script, and while you can and will still get results, the impact is about 45% of what it would be if you were using both channels through a stereo speaker or headphones.

The only programs that do not use SSE are those that are Type A (the PSE Version 2.0 programs with script which are Type A/B hybrids do not, but that will change when Version 3.0 is released) and those programs that are designed specifically for one gender only, and therefore only use one gender of voice. Those programs use a different method to take the place of SSE, which makes them usable on mono speakers at full effect.

This means you can use PSE on cell phones, and programs like Alpha Male, Alpha Female, and other gender specific programs.

However.

That said… why would you ever use anything but PSE on a cell phone without headphones anyway? You don’t want to affect everyone around you, you want to affect yourself only.''

Maybe I don't understand things correctly, because English is not my native language, however I woul like to have a explanation from Shannon himself on why he uses a mono speaker. And if it really matters at all.

My situation is probably a lot different than most people. I try to minimize electronics in my bedroom. I also prefer to use my subliminals overnight. This leaves me with the option of using my cell phone overnight, or using my laptop during the day.

Volume calibration is something I am much more familiar with on a cell phone. And even though my cell phone has mono speakers, for me at my level of execution, it still works quite well. Not as well as it would otherwise, but quite well.

Not everyone is going to be adamant about keeping electronics out of their bedroom. Not everyone executes as well as I do.

The programs are designed so that they will work regardless. However, if you want to achieve maximum possible results, you do need to use the SSE I have built into them. Since I'm not paying for them, but you are, and since I execute much better than most people seem to, for me, mono is "good enough". But if you don't execute as readily as I do, and you paid for it, doesn't it make sense that I would want you to get what you paid for?
