Same CD/Album or Music ,In cable comparison,

What dose the Audiogon community think. I have read alot of cable comparisons on Audiogon and other sites , all or most all end up saying (an should) that its your ear and your system. So I was thinking ,if at least the music was the same on all comparisons , we would have a constant to talk about. Say 3 CD/Album , 1 Rock , 1 Jazz and 1 Classical and 5 or so other songs. Well if this idea has come up before , sorry I missed the thread or if this is just not a good idea.

Thanks Russ

Its only important that (1) you have a system which is sufficiently resolved to reveal the differences, (2) that you know the record you are listening to "by heart", and (3)you know what you are listening for. There are too many varibles involved beside the record for the record to be a meaningful issue in the context of standardization. IMHO.

Newbee, yes that is just what I am saying , if all comparisons where done with the same record , we would end up knowing them "by heart" and we would know what others were saying , when we listened to the record. All systems are different I agree. Over time I think this would work , but who am I.

Thanks

Creege, Lets get pratical now - Who gets to choose the record(s). Personally, I'd agree to Eva Cassidy, but then I'd never get to listen to the sonics, just Eva. And who really wants to know ***** by heart, its such crap! :-)
