What kind of listener are you?


I'm an All-Arounder: Equal parts Analytical, Thrill, and Feeling. Push comes to shove feeling matters most, but they are all very close to equally important to me. 

This is a very useful breakdown of a very complex subject, listening. How we listen to and evaluate components and systems.

Interesting!

Before auditioning a speaker at one of the dealers I visited in my search for a new pair of speakers, the salesman asked me if I preferred "analytic" or "musical" speakers.  For me the choice was "musical".

When I've auditioned some of those "analytic" speakers, they just don't seem to match up with my hearing, sound somewhat "harsh" to me.  Though these are very well engineered and crafted, I can't listen for long, before fatigue sets in.
