In the Thread: Audio critique – open your mind!
Post Subject: The chronicles about audio we practice…Posted by Romy the Cat on: 7/26/2007

Actually I would like to stay at on the subject of this thread - the benefits of critiques and the benefits of positive perception of critiques. I less care about corporations as they have no personal consciousness but I rather target my attention to a person who “does audio”, regardless what industry status s/he put on himself/herself.

The critical assessment the sound of playback installation is superbly important if proper assessment techniques are used. I remember a few years ago Vladimir Lamm suggested me literally to write down the notable perceptions that I experience with my playback in order to teach myself to clearly identify problems. I did and then I reviewed my log as time went by. Lamm was absolutely correct proposing it and I found that it was a very power method to teach own awareness about proper assessment methodology. I do not do logging and analyses of my listening practice anymore… but how different my entire website from my old listening log? Sure they are in a way the same. My early logging practices turned into my site that you read now, my inclinations for objective critical assessment turned into my firm audio conception:

and some of my broader views turned into  a quite effective OBJECTIVE methodology for Audio Evaluations:

(that I never took further then Seconded Level publicly). Frankly, looking at audio sites and taking with audio people I would like less to see their “wondering mind navigating from a component to a component” but rather would like to hear their critiques and their chronicle about audio that they practice…
