@thecarpathian , Smooth talk and a pile of cash, my friend! |
The original question may have been flippant, but there is a serious point buried in it. We can never be sure another audiophile shares our subjective experience of sound any more than our perception of the colour red. There are objective features of it like having deep tuneful bass, resonant acoustic guitars or sharp image imaging that we can agree on. Yet there is no way of describing what I like about listening to music when it sounds really good to me. I know exactly what it is when I hear it, but there’s absolutely no way to express it in words. |
In the same way a blind person can learn how to echolocate objects and ride a bicycle, we can feel the vibrating sound source (a voice or an instrument) specific set of qualities, and each one of our different individualized brain can translate sounds/music in our own qualititive "colored" and "geometrical fractals " inner "viewing"... music need sound but sound means something only when it is transformed in some music...
