[QUOTE="reneeb7363, post: 2420690, member: 569914"] A persons hearing is subjective...what sounds good to you may/probably sounds like A$$ to someone else. You cant possibly say one way of sound reproduction is the BEST way --in ANY environment. I can read...can you? what part of [B]LARGE VENUE [/B]didn't you understand...and [B]I[/B] do [B]prefer[/B] to have the slight (reduced volume) delayed echo from the rear of my car...(because that is what [B]I[/B] like) and yes, it is an reflective environment, albeit VERY POOR, for reflective sounds and other noisey anomolies (s?). BUT...the car is very small and does not create a time difference in the reverberated sounds, like the said concert hall.... and for reference, the 'concerts' I am referring to are jazz, new age, classical, and the occasional rock or country concert. The kind of music I listen to when I am concerned or want to hear sound QUALITY that "sounds like" I am at the concert. I could care less about the 'ambience' (or most often lack there-of) in the urban music I listen to...that's not what it is produced for, or the reason most people listen to it. Rear ambience [B]is[/B] sourced from the left and right channels on the stage...it is a mixed/delayed wave of the original sound returning to the "front stage," in a concert environment larger than your local night club. There are a LOT of environmental ques recorded in music... next time you put those headphones on--listen to something that has the recorded/produced ambience...I recommend Mannheim Steamrollers Fresh Aire 4 -Dancing Flames...for starters. (just one of my favorites...But I would recomend ANY of Mannheims CD's--especially the new HDCD that he is re-mastering and releasing again) If your ears are truly trained so well...you WILL hear the depth, location, environment, delay, etc. of the music as it was recorded. Not very many of the current recordings on the market (ie: circa 1985-2000-ish) were very concerned at all with anything but L-R (basic stereo) configuration, but thankfully recording engineers today are aware of the different acoustical environments and the necissity for attention to the subtle nuances in the music that give it a "life-like" sound/feeling. and just in case you missed it and want to rant and rave at me because I DONT like my music to sound the way you do yours... [B][I]HEARING IS SUBJECTIVE!!!!... [/I][/B]it is up to the person that is listening to the music whether they wish to have rear speakers or not...I feel there is a hole in my listening environment without them. IMO! [/QUOTE]
