@hilde45 glad that works for you. If it measures perfectly and my ear doesn’t like it. IT’S OUTTA THERE. IT’S USELESS. Music is a get away for me. It’s not work or a science. It’s an experience. Anyone who disagrees with me on that part of it. We are not the same or seeking the same. But if it works for them im not going to judge thier knowledge or experience. Just don’t tell me I’m not hearing what I’m hearing.
WHY DO SOME AUDIOPHILES TRY TO TELL OTHERS WHAT THEY CAN OR CAN’T HEAR IN A SYSTEM?
I ask the question. Because I have had several discussions on Audiogon where certain posters will try to tell another person what they can or can’t hear in a system. Most of the time never hearing or having experiences either the piece of equipment, cables etc. It is usually against those that spend money on more expensive equipment and cabling. Why is this so prevalent.

One of the biggest mysteries in the audiophile community, at least to me, has always been why so many folks seem to forget (or willfully ignore) that we all hear and process sound differently. I really don't think it's much more complicated than that. Yes, high-end systems may deliver more timbre, detail, sonics, etc. for ears to process. But the processing is still done by the same sets of different ears. Just because additional detail may be presented doesn't mean it will be received and processed, let alone received and process in the same manner as Johnny The Jet Audio Pro. Different ears are different ears. And this doesn't even account for variations in listening space acoustics impacting the frequencies that are presented. There's a reason EQs became so popular and have a rightful place in some audio gear stacks. As for the omnipotent trolls? Ehh. F 'em. Just my 0.03. |

A true to life heart felt answer. People should not just be in love with the term ‘audiophile’ or think it makes them special to believe it’s a unique camp or club to be a member of….like ‘hi-end’
Just enjoying the musical experience and pleasure a hi-fi system generates for you is the most important thing here and not the, ‘l have got this or you need that’ mumbo-jumbo.
Thats my logic.
