Listening


When you listen to music do you do other things, like read, exercise, work on a project, etc., or do you sit in the sweet spot and concentrate on the music playing?

Do you find you enjoy the music more when concentrating on it than you do when not? Or do you let the music wash over you as background sound?

For serious listening, I'm in the sweet spot. 

My exercise room is just off of my main listening area. I spend a couple of hours there every night.  It actually sounds pretty good in that room. 

Since relocating my system to a dedicated room the only thing I do when music is playing is to listen.  It wasn't always that way, and sometimes I wish it was like it was before.  

My setup is in a dedicated listening room (with a nook dedicated to work desk).  I have music on all day pretty much everyday as soon as I am up.  When I’m done working or it’s the weekend it’s in the chair in the sweet spot for critical listening, reading or World Wide Web stuff on my phone.

Always in the sweet spot but I can't just listen I am always reading something.

Just listen to music. I can't stand reading when music is on. I have to read in silence. I can't stand doing housework with music on either! I can listen to NPR though!
