You bet! It's all forgotten now anyway. When it comes to placebo it is very, very real! But experience and hundreds of hours of evaluating and also enjoying hifi does make you better at hearing things. When it comes to music I think it touches deeper than analysis can easily deal with, so I believe in long term listening to assess the emotional impact. Long-term to even out effects due to one's own mood. I feel A/B can't deal properly with sound reproduction since it seems to shut of part of the process that has to do with actually enjoying music! Also, the ears adapt dynamically to sound characteristics, so qualitative A/B is even more difficult. But this is just my personal opinion. -- P Floding ------------------------------------------------------------------------ P Floding's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2932 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31533 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
