In Reply to: Laws of Listening - J. Gordon Holt posted by Audio Audacity on February 16, 2003 at 22:09:17:
Holt's "laws" were first published many years ago at a time when it was often the case that recordings of demonstration quality were done with less than top notch performers, because the large labels that had the major artists under contract rarely were all that concerned about sound reproduction. AM is correct that there was a tongue-in-cheek intent in Holt's "laws", which are after all an expression of his views and therefore not necessarily "true" in any scientific sense.
