Hearing sensitivity/acuity

"Maybe Teresa is hyper-sensitive, and doesn't realize it. It's quite possible that she should be working in a field which doesn't involve listening to music."

A great quality for a reviewer as I can painfully hear defects others miss.

See this post Audio reviewing is more of a hobby, reviewers have to have other jobs

"I listen with my own ears, and some CDs are excellent, and some totally suck. Just like LPs."

I also listen with my ears and CDs do vary in sound quality from absolutely dreadful to fair. And a lot of LPs are terrible, however most of the audiophile LPs sound between great and fantastic.

"Maybe I should be a reviewer"

I wouldn't recommend it, there are too many reviewers that think CD sounds fine, we need more reviewers who appreciate the difference high resolution makes to musical enjoyment to keep high resolution analog and digital alive.
