[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 82436, member: 30"] Re: Listening Get Together I would argue that there are many people in audio that "test" only using their ears. This is not all bad-as everything should be "double checked" by listening-since that is what we do with audio. However testing is a great way to "validate" what you are hearing or REALLY help to find out what might be causing the problem you are hearing. Measuring also really helps to prove performance. It is quite hard to determine what the -3dB point is without measuring-ESPECIALLY on the high freq. Since most people can't hear as high as many speaker go. Sensitivity is REALLY hard to do without measuring. And impedance gets REALLY hard-but you can always guess. [/QUOTE]
