For example, I don't think I'm particularly sensitive to discerning the sonic ambience cues of the physical extremities of the concert hall in which unamplified acoustic music is recorded. If 10 people happen to make substantially the same comment that they feel that side reflections are confusing the ability to hear the dimensionality of the concert hall -- even if I don't hear what they're talking about -- it might drive me to consider experimenting with absorbing or diffusing side reflections.
