I know that I'm gonna be going against the grain here, but
I'm one of those people who love Gregorian Chants.  I first
heard them in college, and found them fascinating.  I
wouldn't put them in the stereo and crank the sound up
though!!  They're definitely for background...  the sound
acts as a focal point with which one can clear the mind of
all thoughts, and thus relax.  (Makes all those monks more
open to the spiritual communication that they're seeking...)
For myself, I used to play them very quietly which created
"white noise" in my room, over which the sounds of other
people did not come through.  Made it very easy to study.  I
confess I haven't listened to any in a long time.
