| Telling musicians to evaluate and choose their instruments in a “scientific” way? I don’t believe it will ever happen. I don’t believe there will ever be a time when measurements will ENTIRELY explain why audio equipment sounds the way that it does. Sound, and especially musical sounds, are incredibly complex and are subject ... | |
| Telling musicians to evaluate and choose their instruments in a “scientific” way?

| How can a system be judged with highly processed, non acoustic music? Speaking of Fazioli. Interesting comparison. Rolls Royce? I’m not so sure.https://youtu.be/mrB8IthgoRQ | |
| How can a system be judged with highly processed, non acoustic music? tomic601, apology for misinterpreting your comment. Seems you have a great deal of experience with mics. Thanks for sharing. | |
| How can a system be judged with highly processed, non acoustic music? Of course it’s possible to judge a system’s sound using highly processed non-acoustic music. The question is not whether it can be judged, but whether one’s goal is to achieve a sound one likes without any aspirations to meeting any particular sta... | |
