I had originally thought this was an empirical approach, using human subjects, to determine experimentally what "characteristics" of sound they found enjoyable and then to build these characteristics into loudspeakers. But now, after a very little reading on the subject, it seems that this is another objectivist, measurement-based, approach to jam "linearity" down our throats as "what's best" for everyone.

Psychoacoustics is about correlating what we hear with what we measure

Hi Frihed89,

I don't often look at the Critic's Corner Asylum, so I've just now found this thread. Reading your original post, it almost seems as if there is a source or maybe a link to which you are referring, but I don't see one. Is there one, or, is this just something you were thinking about?

Either way, psychoacoustics is the science of how we perceive sound, and is an area which I've studied, and in which I'm very interested.

I would like to contribute something useful here, but I thought it best to ask if there was a source or link that I should be aware of, which prompted your post.

:)

"every microphone ever used to record live music has it's own inherent EQ built in. "

10-4 on that!

You, and others, toss around these initials like they matter. The heck with HP and JGH and whoever. Who cares?

I'm a musician. I can't count how many rehearsals and concerts I've played in.

Loudspeakers will NEVER sound like a real musical instrument. Let me be clear: Never.

I've explained it here multiple times.
