Can the level of pleasure derived from music be measured?

@bdp24 🤣 +1

I’m sorry, but this is too funny.
Leave it to audiophiles to pose such a question unironically.
I can see the articles in audiophile magazines right now:

“The only way to properly evaluate an audio system is to listen to music while hooked up to an electroencephalography machine, and mapping the resulting data.”

@tylermunns@ I borrowed the idea from a scene between Matthew McConaughey and Jodie Foster in the movie Contact.

My level of pleasure is proportional to how many Belgians🍺 I imbibe. Happy listening 🎶

Not  much for measurements can look good but still sound bad 

look at tube amps they are no where near as clean in measurements but we all know tubes have their own Sonic goodness.

It's Schroedinger's cat hissing at us...

The fact that we are performing measurements affects the subject, and places the subject under stress. The added attention and stress to perform will change the emotional state, greatly skew the results. So, while we will get readings, they will refer to how a person feels under duress, and will provide data that is more useful about the stress tolerance levels of the subject.

We would get inconclusive data, as the state we want to relate is is the state where there is no duress, no stress affecting the "results".
