[QUOTE="Byrd2, post: 17199, member: 384"] LOL @ the smileys My view is that the kind of mood one is in can have an effect on the percieved qualities. Ones expectations could also influence the perception of SQ. Even the kind of day you have had. If you have had jackhammers going at the office all day (like i did last week) one might prefer a duller sound to a brighter sound and would therefore select a more dull component as having better SQ wheras the following week you might select the brighter component as having better SQ. The nature of listening is that it is subjective. I am sure you will agree that one individuals preferance, for whatever reason, is not the same as anothers. How can there be a statement then that one component does X, Y or Z, or that one component is better than another because it will not have the same ranking for all listeners [/QUOTE]
