You could laugh me out but sometimes I ask my wife about or use my cat to determine whether my system reproduces the sound with some reality to it or not. I play some high quality nature sounds like birds etc. and observe reaction of the cat. It's done every time when something is changed in the system, either wiring, or components. Placement of the speakers doesn't matter really. Every test is conducted while the cat is more or less in the same state so I could "eliminate" factors influencing her judgment. It works every time and my wife's verdict in 99% agrees with cat's. Being very subjective I stopped believing my ears long time ago. Nowadays I prefer to listen to the music rather than analyze frequency spectrum of my system.
