Meditations on the Limitations of Hearing and Listening

[bonzo75]

Since writing that post, I am even more convinced it is true. It is a power explanation for a lot of what we experience.

And yes, repeated listening is a good idea. As is asking if your system was always that deficient before the tweak yet you thought it was so good .

No it's not necessarily true. That post is valid only for a first time or second time demo. But not for a repeated demo over months, if you hear differences consistently, if you take the tweaks over to your friends' systems and both of you hear similar results there. I for one demo a tweak forever before convincing myself of it. Most tweaks I have dismissed.

May I recommend two websites when I buy outstanding classical recordings ?

http://www.eclassical.com/
https://www.nativedsd.com/

Let me add a third site:

http://www.hraudio.net/

This is my primary, "go to" resource since it deals only in hi rez recordings, and it covers Mch recordings, which are about the only media types I have been buying for the past 8 years. I have found the reviews there to be pretty reliable and informative.

Wow thanks! I'll have some researching to do!
