Have you tried matching a stereo to your hearing?


Have you ever had a hearing test done to determine your actual hearing curve? It is my understanding that the average human hearing range is essentially an arc that tails off at high and low frequencies, but isn't necessarily a smooth line. It might be possible to tune a system to compensate for dips or peaks in ones personal hearing. It might sound terrible to everyone else, but perfect for you.

Has anyone ever tried or thought about this concept? I wonder how similar the hearing curve is for people that commonly enjoy a particular system above all else.

Personally I think everyone does without knowing that's what they are doing. There are people who like certain brands of equipment and others who don't care for that brand because of the sound. It doesn't really matter if it's cables electronics or speakers. An example - me personally can't stand Klipsch speakers because they are too IN YOUR FACE forward in the mid range. Others think they are great.
That's my opinion
