It is very interesting to see how the perception of those things changes with age. 25 years ago I was discovering all of those things, recognized patterns go to work and what does not work and was very pleased when I experience different playback installation and those time after time confirming that's my theories were accurate. Nowadays I am 56 and I do not particularly care to find confirmations or challenges to my theories. What actually make me happy, amused and to a great degree entertain is to see how people which violate my theories somehow made the things work and get positive results.
I do not do a lot of audio traveling nowadays: messed up former wife, three small kids, lack off economical flamboyance and many other factors. Then I do experience other people installation I mostly do not pay attention what have been done but rather vote capacity exist in a given installation and how faithfully as I play back work in the respect to a chosen topology. This is completely different approach which focus not the way how it sounds but rather analyzing what topology use, knowing what the result should be and paying attention if that alleged positive and negative aspects of a given topology manifest itself through the sound that system produces.
In context what I said above I recognizes in myself and interesting tendency. When a musician listening at base peach reproduce by the playback efforts then he or she not necessarily listen how play bad place but rather his or her awareness reconstruct a pitch in on brain and the musician not necessary listen the sound of playback but rather use a playback as a generator of different Sonic simulations. This is well research and known fact in this why many musicians do not use fancy playback installations. What I detected in me that when I listening and playback my awareness unveilingly does not listen yhe sounds the system produces but is chasing acknowledgment on giving audio topology. Sometimes sitting in the live concert at another city listening spot in the concert Hall I in my mind transposite imperfect live sound into playback sound coming from a set of specific audio apologists. All of it lets me super fast, literally visiting listening just a few bars to make a very accurate judgment about the efforts of a given playback.
I am grateful then back of beginning 2000s when I did audio literally full time, I developed great listening techniques which permit me at will completely the couple myself from something's if I always called "Target listening" and to listen music as is. I remember when I developed it it was almost like yoga practicing. I was trying to teach my kids this concept but they not getting it yet...
