I get this most of the time and it puts a smile on my face every time. Instruments that float in space or sound like they are right next to my chair. Definitely dependent on the recording and the volume at which I am listening. Although I experience it at lower volumes as well. I don’t know how much mood and other psychological aspects effects it or if it’s more of a matter of paying attention to the music and not being distracted by other things.
The Disappearing Act
Nope, I am not talking about some magic trick!
I often read here and other forums, when someone describing sound of their system….the music flows and speakers simply disappears. Also read similar acclamation for an amp, preamp or DAC.
Would you agree when someone experience this phenomenon, you’re left with nothing but the music in its purest form. I would say, it’s a testament to the synergy of your components, room acoustics and meticulous setup.
I would like to know, were you listening to something particularly special when ‘disappearing act’ happens, or is it a consistent experience across the tracks?
