Which makes me wonder, is there one single person in the "I defragged my neighbor's cousin's wristwatch and now my system sounds 100x better" crowd who has ever tried to stand behind a mixing console? Or record an original musical sound track on any system? If not, why not? After all, with such golden ears as they must have, they would certainly be an incredible boon to the world of music production. And if one of them have tried to use a mixing console, maybe they remember the time when they adjusted the EQ of that one channel that was a bit off, so that it blended nicely into the mix again ... then I wonder, is it possible to quanticize the increase of sound quality? How many million billion trillion times (squared) better was it after the adjustment? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Soulkeeper's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35297 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=94850 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
