Perception is coloured by what our minds are expecting to hear. You
could take it to extremes and inject yourself full of LSD before
listening to the CD - that would also "strengthen" your perception of
the sound (but it might not necessarily be any more meaningful).

Philosophically speaking though, I guess if people feel that a sound is
better by attaching rubber rings to their CDs for "stabilization"
(cough, ahem) then why shouldn't they do it to improve their experience
? :)
