“In a nutshell, the David Delight Plus is a brain training machine, also referred to an audio-visual entrainment device (AVE) that is designed to help people with a number of life challenges. In my case, I have used this technology to help ameliorate symptoms of ADHD, to increase focus and to get a better night’s sleep. It relies on flashing lights and pulsing tones to help sharpen attention and to disrupt the pairing of unhealthy behaviors that have been learned over the course of time.”

"This machine is simply fantastic, I wouldn't want to be without it. It's an amazing alternative to high priced, in office neurofeedback machines. I do think anyone who uses it should get a brain map done first by a neurofeedback specialist, though. Not all of the programs are a fit for every user. Excepting the sleep programs, perhaps. Generally speaking, you need to understand which programs would work best for you and which ones wouldn't, and only a brain map and a qualified specialist can give you that information. Brain maps are usually $150ish. The Mind Alive company is extremely helpful."

"I had another brand of "mind machine" in the early '90s while in college and used it with great affect while studying and decompressing after classes and clinicals. The product had many options and I never really learned how to properly select them. Fast forward to the present and my purchase of the David Delight Plus. It is very compact, the instructions are clear as well as the theory behind the device. The controls are easy to understand and use, I can change most options by touch. The tones are NOT the same as some have suggested. I try using it at least once per day and enjoy the results immensely. Well Done Dave!"

This is a modern version of a similar machine I used in my 20’s and 30’s. It works great and there are so many options available. I use it for relaxation and sleep mostly and it works great. When I first used a light sound machine it helped with memory and depression. I have used this one 6-7 times and it’s really great. I think you will love it as much as I do.

"N needed to be inside a hyperbaric oxygen chamber for an hour at a time, several times a week, for months in order to treat his advanced prostate cancer. He used the DAVID Delight Plus to help stay calm and peaceful during the course of the therapy and also at night to relax before bedtime. It helped tremendously! The customer service is excellent!"

"5.0 out of 5 stars. A well built quality machine. The DAVID Delight Plus came well packed and undamaged. Each piece was wrapped nicely-professionally done. Upon reading the manual, I found the instructions were done in a orderly fashion-no jumping around. Also, many parts of the manuals instructions were nicely highlighted in soft colors. The colors do hold interest when reading, sort of soft on the eyes. I give the manual a five star by itself. Very nice looking machine. I'm very pleased with the quality of the unit. The glasses are super great and have a nice soft color on them, the headphones are of very nice quality, very good sounds coming from them. The Delight Plus is worth the price and wait. The machine itself is well designed. I fine the heartbeat to be useful to help pace my breathing until I master it. So, it does come in useful. I have a very active mind, always thinking, so I find it hard to sleep many nights in a row. I didn't sleep at all last night, so I gave the Delight Plus a quick test drive. I laid on the bed, slipped on the glasses, headphones, and switched on the machine, setting it to meditation. After a few minutes or so, I was slipping off into oblivion, but just before I went out, I shut the machine off and got off the bed. That's the fastest I was ever being put to sleep-just beautiful. The Delight Plus has a soft on and soft off mechanism built into it. It softly but steadily raises the sounds when starting, it lower the sounds to off when nearing the end of the session. It doesn't start loud abruptly, or shut off abruptly. Well thought of. Also, the machine itself, fits in an average size mans hand, probably will fit into most shirt pockets. I bought this machine to help tuck my eyeballs in at night for a sound sleep-it looks like it's the machine that's going to do it. I'm very well pleased with the purchase experience. Thanks for your time, my friends. =============================== A little update is in order after first night of use: At around 11:15pm I jumped into bed and buckled up with the Delight Plus: putting on the headphones, lighted glasses, with the machine near-by. I set the session on the third session on the icon moonlight, this is the sleep sessions. There are five sessions in all under each icon except the plus (+) icon, which is there for you to add five of your own. I could remember barely waking up and removing the headphones and glasses, then falling back to sleep. I woke this morning around 8:25am, feeling entirely rested. I didn't have that brain dead feeling like I usually have when not having any sleep, or partial sleep. I climbed out of bed to go and have a look in the mirror to see the visual effects-no drooping face, no tired looking eyes, no slight bags under the eyes: which all indicates that what I was feeling in my head-rested-was accurate. But, I wasn't done just yet. I decided to go back and lay down and dawn on the Delight Plus, and go for the Mood sessions, which I did, set at the third session. After going through the Mood session, I put everything away, started straightening everything up in the room. I noticed after maybe several minutes, I was wearing a smile? It could have only been from the Delight Plus. Apparently, the Mood session was just enough to change the mild depression into a borderline happy."

"A little over a year ago, I could not sleep to save my life. I used to wake up several times every night. When I was able to "sleep" without waking up during the evening, I would wake up exhausted, as if I had been run over by a train. Therefore, the next day, I would feel tired and became very irritable. A colleague of mine recommended that I contact Dave as I was interested in using the gear for work with addictions. I decided to purchase a DAVID for myself. The first night I used it, I remember thinking, "There is no way I am going to sleep with these lights being so bright and these tones." After that, the next thing I remember was waking up refreshed and energized; it had been months since I was able to actually sleep! Now I have been using my DAVID for over a year and I cannot remember when the last time I could not sleep was. I also use it in the morning before going to work to get more energized, while I take my nap after lunch for relaxation and while I read and study to be more relaxed and focused. This device has changed my life! Now, I strongly recommend my clients that they get one; many of them have and are happy they did. Thank you for creating such a wonderful product!"

"I have been using my DAVID for taking naps in the afternoon. It works AWESOME!! Before, my mind would be racing and I could not get any sleep, even though I was exhausted. I call this my 'power nap'. It really is awesome!"

"I'd had problems with sleep since I was about four years old. It would take me, on average, over an hour a night to fall asleep. As soon as I would lie in bed for over two hours, tossing and turning. I had tried different medications to help me sleep, but I always would wake up with a ‘hangover' effect - I would be more tired than if I had just tried to fall asleep on my own. I am a Registered Nurse, so others depend on me for their safety and well-being. I couldn't afford to be sleepy while I was working. I was skeptical of the study at first, but the need for sleep was stronger than my skepticism. I was attracted by the fact that no medications were involved. As I had said before, medication did help me sleep, but I was so drowsy the next morning I was almost better off tossing and turning, waiting to fall asleep. As part of the study, prior to using the DAVID, I had to keep track of my ‘normal' sleep habits for two weeks. The results were typical-on average, it would take me an hour or more each night to fall asleep. The day I took the DAVID home, I tried it on different programs prior to bedtime to acquaint myself with the sensation of the lights and noises. When I used the machine the first night, I fell asleep in 40 minutes! For me, that was nearly a record. I had programmed the machine for a 20 minute program, and was still awake after the program stopped, but when I took the headphones and glasses off and just rested, my mind didn't start racing! I just rested quietly, and fell asleep on my own 20 minutes later. After that first night, I began falling asleep even more quickly. I was regularly falling asleep in 20 minutes or less. I would program the machine for a 30 minute program, but I would rarely be awake when the program ended. I would just wake up in the middle of the night, take off the glasses and headphones, and go back to sleep. Even if I woke up in the middle of the night to answer the phone or to use the washroom, I would fall right back to sleep again. I noticed my moods improving-I have had trouble with clinical depression for about five years, and my concentration was enhanced. For the first time that I could remember, I would wake up in the morning and feel rested. As part of my work, I can be out of town for three or four days a week, and stay overnight in hotel rooms. Normally, I would need at least two hours to fall asleep in a strange bed. With the DAVID, I would still fall asleep in an average of 20-30 minutes. The DAVID traveled with me throughout the province and to British Columbia while I was on the study. Only once, in all the nights I spent in strange beds (approximately 15-20 nights during the study), did I have trouble falling asleep. When I stopped using the DAVID and had to go back to sleeping ‘on my own' to complete the study, I was hopeful that my brain had been ‘programmed' to just fall asleep, without any of the problems I had before. Unfortunately, that was not the case. My old sleep patterns returned, and my mind was racing again. The only way to avoid having trouble falling asleep was to stay up until late at night, and wear myself out. Then, I could fall asleep in under an hour. I started having concentration problems again, and my mood became more depressed and irritable. By the time the end of the study had come, I was feeling desperate. I needed my sleep. The only option I felt I had was to buy a machine for my own use. So, as soon as I had completed the study, I purchased my own DAVID machine to use at home. Every night since I purchased the machine, I have fallen asleep in under half an hour. To me, it is nothing short of a miracle. I don't just use the DAVID for sleep. I have also found various programs helpful for relaxation, or to help me focus on a busy day. Once, when I was traveling with my work, another staff member developed a migraine headache. Normally, she suffers with these headaches for days at a time. I let her try the DAVID while she rested, and when the program was finished, her headache had substantially decreased in magnitude. She no longer felt nauseous, and was able to work that afternoon. The next day, the headache was gone. I'm glad I overcame my skepticism and tried the DAVID study. I no longer dread the end of the day and the prospect of having to try to fall asleep. I just get into bed, turn on the DAVID and get comfortable. Sleep comes on it's own."

"My husband, Bob, aged 72, has been experiencing mild cognitive impairment for a few years now but we let it slide until this year as we live in Bali and only return to the States to do our annual exhibition of our jewelry and sculpture. But this year we could no longer avoid dealing with the problem. We were blessed by being directed to several professionals who have each contributed to his improvement. He has been using the DAVID since early March about five times or more a week. He is also taking Aricept (started taking this about three weeks after starting the DAVID) and exercising his grey matter by learning the language here. I can't say which piece of this puzzle has helped more but I felt from the start that the DAVID made a big difference. His mood and attitude changed almost immediately. It seemed he asked the same questions less often than before. Bob became brighter and more with it and when he didn't use it I could see his short term memory was worse. And he really has taken to it. He initiates using it so I know he sees a difference too. Thanks for making such a wonderful machine."
