I'm assuming and hoping the manufacturers of my equipment do some measurements but there is no reason for me to do any at home. I setup by ear the way I prefer it. I definitely spend some time doing that. Listening is a skill. Hone stand learn to trust it
Do you trust your ears more than measurements?
I have a lot of audiophiles that say the ear test is the best. I believe them. Some of us have to do blind tests etc. I’m in the camp of trusting your own ears because no matter how something measures. Is it more pleasing to you with a particular cable, placement tweak etc. What are your thoughts everyone?

@knotscott i agree. I always trust my ears. They have to bring joy to your ears. |
@calvinj for sake of mild curiosity - do you employ DSP in your setup, and if you do, are DSP settings being adjusted by ear? |
@benanders because of my listening space. I can’t. A lot of us audiophiles are limited in where we can place things and the room itself. |
