It works diffidently and similarly for me. I’m not talking about evaluation methodology – is a different subject and I’m not talking about playback assessment by musical values of reproduced music – it is separate subject as well. I’m talking juts about the very simple and “practical” assessment of heard sound. Generally I have developed very fast and mostly very accurate ability to hear what I feel need to be heard in reproduced sound and I have no problems to identify “what is wrong” and “what can be done”. It is important to understand that I might instantaneously to recognize “what is wrong” but it is not necessarily that I might know “why it was wrong” – in fact to answer this questions might take a LOT. However what is fascinating that after listening Sound my mind enters another state, the state that Dominick named “remember the sound”…

I very much value that “memories about sound” and for me an ability to look at “my Sound of past” and to observe how my inner-me reacts to those memories is very important and very indicative in the assessment of how valuable THAT Sound was. I have learned a LOT about a personality of Sound juts by recalling and thinking about the “reminisced sound”. In some instances the “memories about sound” say more about the Sound’s nature then the actual experience of the Sound.
