Thanks for the replies. Many miss my point about listening for PRaT .... - KIS 15:33:08 09/24/06 (1)

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)

I tend to agree with Tightwad in that it is the music itself that has the PRaT - artemus 19:51:36 09/23/06 (0)

What else is music but pace, rythym, and timing? - OMalley 17:22:33 09/23/06 (13)

Melody, tonality, harmony.... - Mark Kelly 17:58:41 09/23/06 (12)

You can have rhythm with no melody, but not the other way \nt - BatNastard 08:41:43 09/24/06 (0)

Imaging and soundstaging is NOT music! (nt) - Tawe 08:26:08 09/24/06 (8)

It is certainly part of music reproduction! - HenryH 10:16:28 09/24/06 (7)

Imaging and Pace, Rhythm & Timing are not the same thing and both are important to the total musical experience. - Teresa 18:37:26 09/24/06 (2)

Musicians swing, hi-fi gear doesn't. Hence, PRaT is SHiTe. (nt) - Tightwad 17:05:05 09/23/06 (3)

Some hi-fi gear swings, some doesn't - Rob Doorack 18:41:50 09/23/06 (1)
