General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

Actually . .

.. the article is right on in one respect. I've been enamored with good home stereo since a teenager in the 1960's and over the years I've come to the conclusion that musically gifted people are generally fine with poor quality reproduction, and enjoy their music on meagre playback equipment. On the hand I've found it almost equally true that myself and many other fine-audio enthusiasts I've known, generally don't have one musically capable bone in our bodies, and need a good playback system in order to really enjoy our music. Even at live performances, the sound has to be good for me to really enjoy it.

I've entertained the same notion the author states, that musically gifted people have the music in their heads and just need the cues, whereas non-musical people need to have it all spelled out. No biggie, just different strokes. The most important thing is that everybody gets to enjoy their music.
