In Reply to: More on the listening room as an evaluation tool posted by Charles Hansen on January 17, 2007 at 20:19:17:
One can enjoy wine, televisions, cars, sailboats, etc. the same in different locations. Context doesn't matter much. I grant that it is hard to demonstrate cars and sailboats at shows but reviews have greater verisimilitude. We have managed to get along in this circumstance for many years, but there is a major problem. I think many need to realize the limitations we have in conveying what we prefer and what it sounds like in our rooms. The number of people whose ears and comments I trust gets smaller each year.
