In Reply to: Thanks for the replies. Many miss my point about listening for PRaT .... posted by KIS on September 24, 2006 at 15:33:08:
When listening to a new component or system I close my eyes and if the music does not make my body move, my feet stomp or takes me inside the music it is not a component I want and one devoid of PRaT.Recordings with the best PRaT actually allow me to leave my body and become one with the music. Excellent PRaT actually takes me inside the music and I become one with the music unaware of a physical body.
As I told "Fretless" Imaging and Pace, Rhythm & Timing are not the same thing and both are important to the total musical experience.
Imaging and Soundstaging lets you actually see the musicians and their instruments in the mind's eye and more importantly the space between.
PRaT (Pace, Rhythm & Timing) actually allow you to get "into" the music. It gets your body moving and your feet stomping. If PRaT is in the original recording then it is the job of the reproducing system not to destroy it. Some very expensive systems do destroy PRaT. Both PRaT and Imaging are important for the total enjoyment of music!
Remember if it takes you away it has PRaT; if it doesn’t it does not have PRaT.

- For me it is easier to hear the lack of PRaT, as I try to listen to the music not the sound. - Teresa 18:55:23 09/24/06 (0)
