How cool would that be? A metering system that connected with the goosebumps on our arm or the tears of joy forming in our eyes.
I was at the studio yesterday listening to a new live recording we had made. The intimacy of that recording drew me in and then the music itself just resonated in such a way that I could not hold back the tears. I could not help myself nor could I turn off the music (despite the fact I was late for a meeting).
A great HiFi system lets down our guard and entices us to get sucked into the music.
And that's true.
Think about the opposite where upon first listen we scrunch our face in a cringe.
We each know when it's right. When we hit the jackpot.
We don't need no stinking meter :)
