Millercarbon is exactly right. One has to learn to hear and how to listen. The ability to hear soundstage, depth, and imaging is not innate; it is an acquired skill that must be learned. This requires effort. My friends who introduced me to audiophilia decades ago spoke of hearing just these qualities, leaving me wondering what the heck they where talking about. With repeated listening sessions and much effort, I learned how to listen. I happily and enthusiastically “graduated” upon my being able to appreciate the amazing depth of image in “Nights in White Satin” (MFSL 1/2-speed remaster of The Moody Blues’ “Days of Future Passed”, played through Accoustat 4s). It’s been a great ride ever since then. I am a skeptic individual, but I certainly trust my ears.
Enjoy the music.
