"Hey - that sounds good" usually works for me. I reckon that 'test stress' limits the benefits of blind (single, double or polygamous) testing, and you're much better listening in a relaxed environment. This goes even more when you're used to hearing good equipment, as it becomes easy to spot when it really 'clicks'. I realise that it is not scientific, but the chocolate vs strawberry yoghurt story given earlier indicates some limits to a scientific method of testing. I struggle to find a solution that satisfies me rationally, so am happy just to stick with something that just sounds great and stop worrying about it :) Adam -- adamslim SB3 into Derek Shek d2, Shanling CDT-100, Rotel RT-990BX, Esoteric Audio Research 859, Living Voice Auditorium IIs, Nordost and Anti-cables http://www.last.fm/user/AdamSlim/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ adamslim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7355 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32352 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
