Nothing groundbreaking there; the reality we construct from our senses is based on perception. Nonetheless, recordings are manipulated by engineers who add "air" and "separation" (with good reason according to the article), and the audiophile's goal is to recreate the stimulus as accurately as possible. Sure it's a misguided pursuit for some, but you can't say that pulling the speakers out from the wall and hearing more separation is placebo. -- Skunk http://www.last.fm/user/TheSkunk/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Skunk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2685 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=52501 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
