Very interesting, thank you very much for that post. I'll run it by some of our acustics profs to see if they are familiar with these studies. Peoples response to the online test are interesting. Seems their musical predilections are not always what they should be according to the German test. Of course we all know the German's are pretty wierd :-) I mean, they never jaywalk ;-) My favorite instruments are classical guitar(let's hope so), violin and cello. But I really like all instruments and many genres of music ( even my kid's hip/hop, love idlewild and dangermouse's grey album) The composer's or interpreters musical intentions are now more important to me than the medium (instrument.) Perhaps experience(either as listener and/or musician) can affect our organic predilections? I guess this would be a nature versus nurture debate. Can you imagine what this could do to the high end industry, get tested , go to designers of that kind of equipment, audio nirvana gauranteed :-) -- tomjtx ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tomjtx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7449 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29025 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
