I am calling those who always argue on the side of measurements, as meter readers. You know, the people who always bring up testing, studies, and mearurements as the real truth when listening to audio equipment. The ones who say because your ears are biased, and your mind fills in the blanks, that's why you thought you heard a difference, you really didn't. They spout "audio bull****", "audio myth", and "hyperbole."
My question: How do you listen to your system?
Here is my guess. Remember, it's only a guess.
First, you place a CD into your CD player, or a LP onto your turntable. Next you proceed to shove five pounds of cotton into those little biased receptors we call ears. This way you can't hear a damn thing. I mean why let your ears biase your musical enjoyment.
Second, you position microphones in front of your speakers. The microphones are in turn connected to somekind of measuring device, maybe a computer. If it is a computer, I'm sure you have some kind of computer software that allows you to see exactly what it is that your are listening to.
Next, you press play on your CD player, or gently place the stylus upon the LP, and sit back and enjoy. You look at those pretty little meters, or computer screen and say: "Man, does that look, I mean sound GOOOOOOD!" No biase here! Can't be, I took my ears out of the equation. I am know listening to the truth, audio nirvana. Numbers, measurments, and scientific testing do not lie. They are the only way to really hear what it is that your are listening to! We must take "Audio Myth", "Audio Bull****", and "Audio Hyperbloe" out of the equation. We will teach you what your are really listening to. We are the barriers of the audio truth.
Again, I did say I was just guessing. I'm sure I'm wrong, aren't I?
As for me, I will continue to listen to my system with my biased little ears. I don't care about your so called audio truth. I like to find out for myself about "Audio Myth", "Audio Bull****e", and "Audio Hyperbole". I'll decide if they have any truth or not!
Have fun looking, I mean listening to your systems!
Sincerely,
