[QUOTE="Sarel.wagner, post: 1138697, member: 25509"] The other point on this, oft ill considered, is that our auditory memory last but only a part of a second. Yes day to day there are practically no change, outside of an injury. Year to year after we stopped growing in the normal physical sense, also little change. But over a decade or thereabouts, much change sets in. We do not realize this, as we live with the changes day by day. We cannot possibly remember what things sounded like a second ago, let alone 5 years ago. Then there are the inevitable changes to the equipment, and not just by replacing them with summing else, but internal changes. Like for example in loudspeakers from new, cones settle, and droop (that dreaded affliction by gravity) and then capacitors change, and transistors change etc etc. All those changes, subtle from day to day or undetectable if you will, but inevitably equipment and components change. Ozone and UV's effect on cone materials like cones and surrounds or the glue in those and the spiders for example, all change over time. TheOnlyConstantIsChangeGroetnis [/QUOTE]
