Should people with no turntable or reel to reel be considered audiophiles?

rauliruegas,

I felt it should be listed with those articles (or online videos) we feel might genuinely advance our collective knowledge.

It was a little depressing to read about the irreversible hearing damage that happens with misuse and with time.  

Plus all of the recalibration our hearing systems have to perform as a result, or the effects of volume on perceived frequency response.

I remember the old stories of New York police putting bullets in their ears to drown out the hysterical (100dB+) screams from the fans at the Beatles concerts!

We should always take maximum care of our hearing.

>>>>One imagines police in New York and elsewhere still use that trick for protests and brutal arrests.

Dear @cd318 : Excellent thread you started. Good.

Dear @geoffkait  : """   EEG (Electroencephalogram) shows up as wavy (I.e., continuous) lines. """

that's because is the only way the printer works.

The EEG analysis try to measure the brain/neurones electrical  activity. It does not measures the barin chemical/neurotransmitter activity.

So, the study is taking the neuronal discrete impulses that are developed at high velocities as hundreds between two " points " eacg second time.
Maybe each impulse distance with the next one could be of ansgtons and the printer can't print it.

Btw, the research on MIT states that those kind of impulses are not all the same kind and has a binary characteristic/condition: onn/off, this is what we can read down there.

That's why in our inner ears we have that ADC mechanism: is the only way we can listen any kind of sound. We can't listen in the analog dominium ( that's unknowed by the human been. ) but binary one.

Regards and enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS,

Ham gravy ain’t wavy. 😬
