Thanks. I think your approach is more reasonable. Often times, when trying to evaluate some differences in the playback by rapidly switching back-and-forth, I quickly paint myself in the corner and then everything sounds the same. It's similar to how women shop for perfume -- after sniffing a few brands, they ask to be given a jar of freshly ground coffee to smell. They do that to reset their senses, to 'reboot' and go back to square one.
I guess the ground coffee equivalent in the world of sound would be silence?
Follow Ups:
When comparing IC's or speaker cables over several days, I'll even jot down a few notes when I hear something exceptional....or something kinda crappy.
Example...does cable "A" sound bright and confused during complex/dynamic passages... whereas cable "B" sounds more relaxed/composed and able to sort thru the complexities "A" couldn't. Does one cable standout because of tonality/total engagement? Does one cable "put the performers in the room" in a more convincing manner? There are many more examples I could list, but you'll have to decide your priorities. Once in a great while, you'll stumble upon a cable that just sounds totally right from the very start. (No need for the notepad)
