Finally Paul at his age is appreciating tone controls and realizing how important they are if there is too much, or too less bass or trebles etc in the recordings . And how excited he is 4:24 , that he can change the bass. Just like I was when I was 14 years old and playing with my first hifi integrated with tone controls equalizer over 40 years ago. haha Good for you Paul ! Better late than never . LOL

Wow Paul, thanks for answering my provocative question. I totally agree that the main skills for being an audiophile are wanting to be one and putting in the effort to learn how to appreciate evocative music playback. The reward is the joy that comes from being moved by the music and enjoying all that has gone into delivering it to our ears. As a long time audiophile I've tried to teach many others how they can get more enjoyment out of music. My wife for example is an unwilling recipient of my hobby but she'll admit that she has come to appreciate the quality of a good recording played through a nice system. I've spent some money on my hobby but never the big bucks that I could. I know it can be better but it is fine for what I need and I can get a decent amount of enjoyment out of what I have. Thanks for your channel, I've learned a lot and continue to expand my audiophile knowledge.

Palpable dynamics, and great channel separation is something that I was lucky enough to fall ass backwards into with my system. Well produced recordings make a huge difference. Two sets of stereo speakers is a must for me. Front speakers placed "according to Paul", and another set of one size smaller speakers set on the sides and towards the rear. One album by an artist I really like is usually not enough. Today I fell in love w/ Patty Loveless all over again.

Paul, I have spent countless hours doing exactly what you were describing. Mixing audio from scratch is not easy. I found that you must also compare the audio tracks to a reference track that sounds perfect, or at least perfect to the person doing the mixing. I also do the same thing, but I listen to my recordings on the studio speakers first, then my car, then my home stereo, then a boom box, and then finally a clock radio with an input. I want to hear what the music or audio sounds like in any environment, well that I have access to. Also, you said it yourself, since there is no perfect speaker, you have to listen to many different speakers/environments.

Paul, you hit it on the head when mixing. You have to have an appropriate room and speakers. Mixing is an art. Mixing with headphones is a perfect room that no one has except those using headphones. That is why you have to go back and forth from room to room.. Listening Room 2 has some imperfections, even if they are small. Cars, living rooms, and designated movie rooms have other imperfections. When Mixing you are trying to find the happy medium of all listening mediums for all listening rooms. Mixing instruments are easy. One vocal is tough, but multiple vocals is harder. Recorded Mixing is easier than a live mix for concerts.

The very best golden ears in the business use ATC - so if you don’t like yours it suggests that the control room and speaker placement could be an issue. The pro models can be rotated horizontally to sit on top of the bridge (you pop out the tweeter and install it in an alternate baffle slot so the tweeter remains above the mid range). For that small room the SCM 25A would be a better fit.

Indeed, they appear to be the ATC SCM50 (9"/3way) I've used them and you're right, that midrange driver is the star of the show. It's a 75mm/3" covering from like the mid 300hz range up to the mid 3khz range. Great monitor, active tri-amped internally with legit class AB amps. BUT, damn @$20k, they're proud of them! I've always thought they were somewhat over priced, but you encounter them all over and they do a great job as a monitor. Even second-hand they cost quite a bit. (It is temporary and Paul has admitted it ... but the manner they've got them setup in the mix/recording room is really poor. They're likely too close for solid driver integration to coalesce into a whole. The reflective mess, lack of symmetry, odd angled wall behind the mix position really hampers the system's performance.)

The only real skill is the ability to hear, unless one adds the ability to conduct unbiased research. Patient perseverance in listening to and testing various gear is, I think, a required quality but not properly a skill (though the ability to discern the differences might well be called a skill). Ironically (since audiophiles are often accused to the contrary), I consider humility a necessary quality as well, since one must be willing to change their mind to adapt to the realities they encounter in their research and testing.

It's unfortunate that within the audiophile community there exists the 'audiophile snob'! They are usually self appointed 'experts' often with little or no technical background and more interested in being an authority rather than someone that appreciates good music. Solid gold terminals, capacitors rolled on a fair maiden's thigh, concrete turntables, cables supported on mini pylons; these are all part of the audiophile snob armoury. I've been involved with audio and music for 50 years and have spent far too long in the past listening to the equipment rather than the music. I think it's a great shame that the younger generation aren't overly aware of high end audio and favour the convenience of listening to music on earpods. With that in mind it would be good if audiophiles took on the role of encouraging young people to explore how much better their music listening experience could be rather than preach to their peers on how much better an interconnect dipped in ox blood sounds. Paul is doing a great job I think of appealing to just about everyone in the audio community and a breath of fresh air in his light hearted approach.

Of course adding EQ must be done carefully with a proper DSP solution or you mess up the sound more than you fix it.
