[QUOTE="FoxPro5, post: 5242858, member: 562649"] The way most people use the term "SQ" is most directly related to their personal preference if they think the sound sounds "good" or "right" to them. There is nothing within a waveform traveling through the air that has any indication of what the sound is going to be inside your head. The fundamental of the male voice is right around 100 hz, but so is annoying road noise in our cars. One sound we like; the other we hate. Why is this?? Who puts the sound on the wave?? Their objective measurement could very well be [I]exactly [/I]the same. Sound is 100% objective. We can view on a screen and measure the signal going into an amp with an O-scope and see what it looks like coming out. Whether it's agreeable with you is 100% in your head. If you don't have ears, there is no sound. If there's sound, there is ears. Sound implies ears. Same thing with color. Color implies eyes. There's nothing within a 450hz wave that knows it's red without eyeballs to see it. The reason people use these relatively arbitrary terms is to 1) try to communicate in relative terms to others 2) because they like to feel like they are a part of a group - "I'm a strict sound quality guy"....."I'm bass head" or 3) they are a numskull and don't understand what they are talking about.
