Learning To Listen

LOL Driving skills does not make for a "GOOD" driver. It does makes for a driver with "KILL SKILL" at best.. WHY? The other guy is the problem, you just need a way out.. Remember that, YOU will never get in a wreck.. EVER...

Distracted driving is WORSE than a DUI x 10. At least one, you can blame on "one to many".. The other is "They just shouldn’t have a drivers license". Using a cell phone driving, Automatic 2 year in the pin.. NO EXECPTION. prison... Attempted murder! Second offence LIFE.

He was a good stunt driver. GOOD is followed by STUNT, it does not mean they are a GOOD DRIVER.
Words count...

Besides I'll take a new Caddie with a rocket engine that runs on water, and pays me to drive it.. My kind of car..

OR A Roller will do.. Chauffeur please.. With a Chauffeurs Lic.. I use to have one.. YUP Class A doubles and haz certs.. YUP....

Dadork - great!  I hope you enjoy it when it comes around. As I say, you probably know much of the basic theory they take you through at the start, but bear with it. I skipped some of it. Then those listening materials and tests came along and I kept failing...  so I swallowed my pride, went back to lesson 1, paid attention this time, and eventually was able to get the tests right.  Good luck!

FYI - Tone is defined as a sound of definite pitch and vibration and
Bandwidth is defined as a range of frequencies within a given band, in particular that used for transmitting a signal.

Neither one of these definitions has anything to do with volume as you claim. 

One problem with your posts is it is hard to tell what you are saying.  I would have thought you knew a little more about what you are talking about and maybe you do.  You just lack the ability to write or say it correctly. 

With that in mind when I read your posts I will try to interpret your intent rather than go off what you actually write.  I do appreciate the other posts about learning to understand and interpret recorded sound which is certainly a learned skill. 

That said, what remains annoying to many is your presumed authority based on so many years experience and your degrading approach in communicating your beliefs.  You portray the image that you have heard it all and know what is best for everyone.  It appears from your writing and mannerisms you are an older person, perhaps north of 70 which is okay but perhaps not entirely.  

In that context I would like to ask you a couple questions. 
  
1.  Do you think the average 25 year old perceives sound the same as you?
2. Do you think you perceive sound the same as you did in 1990 when you first got into hifi?
3. Do you think you perceive sound the same way you did 5 years ago?
3. Do you think the subjective bias you show has any real value outside yourself? 
4. Do you think your opinions are relevant to a person who can actually hear a 16 kHz tone? 

Perhaps yes and perhaps no but certainly not always.  

 

    

Fact is it helps to be good listener if you are an audiophile.  Otherwise your card may be revoked.
