[QUOTE="FJF, post: 6119291, member: 601907"] One's hearing, as an ultimate state, and aural acuity aren't the same. It's a matter of knowing what to listen for. Not unlike a sonar operator on a submarine who has to be taught to identify given aural queues, an audiophile does the same when listening to a system. When it comes to tuning, understanding the effects of a given change before flipping the switch is driven by learning about audio. Essentially, one listens to the system, identifies the weak points, and then uses tuning to minimize the problem areas. It's all interrelated. If you want to get started, perhaps sometime in the future, I'd suggest doing two tings: listening to a lot of music and using the available resources to learn about the technical relationships at play, then correlating the two. This will take a bit of time, but you will also learn a lot in the process. That's probably the best way to go. [/QUOTE]
