After reading this, I did a few experiments. I tuned my guitar to A432 -- it sounds fine (I mean, you know, for an equal temperament instrument). I'll probably keep it that way for a while.

Then I ripped some music to my computer and applied a pitch shift to it. Oddly, while Bob Marley sounds great at A432 the Henry Purcell Fantasias don't sound that great.

It's been fun, though.
