Your Most Prominent Audio Component

If neurology can be likened to capacitors and resistors then technically we are the most important component, and the variations from one human to the next vastly exceed the variations in components.

That’s a non sequitur. The standard model of neuronal membrane proporties applies to all humans and all vertebrates without any significant variability.

This thread was somewhat inspired by the midnight effect thread.

OK. You are excused.

I am the opposite of "bored" today.

Me, too. 😉

Various ion pumps and channels are utilized by neurons to maintain a transmembrane ionic gradient, which produces an electric potential energy (Voltage)...

... Electric potential energy is NOT measured with Volts. It's measured in Joules.

You say what ?

Genetic variation, brain, and intelligence differences

There is enough variation in brain neuronal structure to make large differences in music processing or as we might call it - "musical intelligence."

@bolong - what you say may well be true, but the basis for determining what sounds realistic to each of us comes from the same sources that create sound waves, which pass through air and into our ears. We may well hear differently, but what we identify as realism is of the same origin. The equipment that reproduces recorded sound waves are thus equally judged from their approximation to those origins. So there is indeed a basis for comparisons we can all share.
