My "intensity dial" was cranked WAY up. Who did that? My oh my...No really. We're saying the same thing.
Quantitative measurements + Qualitative perceptions = optimal sound
Both are just guides really.
You know my BESTEST test for systems? It's when I (for some reason) stop wondering about all the technical attributes long enough to get drawn into the soul of the music. This is when I can get spine shivers and goose bumps again. Tonality. Transparency. Immediacy. Involvement. Very qualitative and perceptual "measurements" indeed.
I think if we could measure spins shiver intensity and goose bump size... we'd be getting somewhere!
