Something Millercarbon has preached Be A Better Listener. Do not get mired in data.


At times I agree with @millercarbon. Not often but at times.

One thing he has always preached is "Do you know how to listen"?

Well this article sheds a little light on that very subject.

Yes Chuck that was a compliment.

Just provoking some thought and I may look a tweaks a little different (just not colored rocks).

I've long been a fan of Roger Skoff's take on audio and have linked many of his thoughts on the matter. He's a valuable resource in audio and a sage when it comes to how and what to listen for. 

Why you want to credit someone else for what Roger's been saying for decades is beyond me.

All the best,

As I have gotten older my hearing acuity has decreased ( presbycusis) but my listening skills have improved.Part of that is attributed to the continual improvement of my hifi system and recording quality but also part of it is just sitting back, closing my eyes and concentrating on the music.

I have to laugh at some of the posters here who constantly negatively rail against products such as upscale fuses or cables or certain speakers which shall remain nameless.Either they have never bothered to listen to them or their system isn’t revealing enough or their listening skills are subpar. Possibly ,it might be all three. Hopefully my comments do not result in this thread being deleted.

Quite a few of us on this site have this belief. Data people always shouting.
