Well, you can listen to the music with a high quality set of cans, and a good amp to drive them. That will at least take the room effect out of the equation. Personally though, the added reverb effect of the listening room is really what brings the recording to life, provided it's done properly. That's where a good room-correction system comes into play -- primarily to deal with the nodes in the bass frequencies. I suppose it's possible to deal with those using room treatment alone, but for most of us living in real-world circumstances (with wives, and limited funding/technical expertise), that's not realistic. -- Mike Anderson 'FREE RADICAL RADIO!'
