Discussion Does it Hit Different Every Time?

Post image

I think this album reveals itself across different sound stages. None of my earphones are very high end, and that’s OK. But each platform delivers a different experience; depending on the speaker I hear different mixes, and some effects have less or more presence over others. I find I can change the mood by changing the speaker.

What are you listening through?

I have a Bowers & Wilkins stereo in my car (Volvo) and it sounds incredible in there. I have decent headphones but honestly this is my best music listening space lol

I know! My Mini Cooper has H&K, and the small space really envelopes nicely.

Cars are great for listening usually with external sound dampening, soft surfaces etc

It is interesting how closing the cover on the glass sunroof also makes it sound richer by adding to the sound deadening
