How do you know when a stereo sounds good?


When do you know your system is pleasing to listen to? How do you conclusively prove to yourself that your system sounds good to you? How do you determine that you enjoy listening to music through your stereo? Do you have a suite of measurements that removes all shadow of a doubt that you are getting good sound, sound that you enjoy? Please share.

 This post brings up something I often wonder about. 

Best song title tie in- "What kind of fool..." 

The other question I have is why do you sit down one day

and absolutely love the way your system sounds yet the

next day conclude it is nothing special?

 

 

 

How can I tell if my system sounds good?

1. Ask my spouse if the system could use some tweaking

2. Close your eyes, Lean forward in your chair. Take a listen

3. Listen carefully to the sound made  while it

   hits the pavement from two stories up.

4. Gather some blind people to your listening room

    and perform a listening test. 

5. Consult the 8 Ball!
