Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners Anybody in DC/Norther Virginia Area with M60s?

>>My main point is the we essentially do not disagree over whether or not one can hear a change in speakers after a period of time. I believe you when you tell me you hear a difference. The question is, where does that change take place; in the speakers, or in ones perceptions of the speakers' sound?

I agree with everything you said... the only sticking point for me is that based on a VERY small sample space I have noticed a couple of times where playing the speakers for a while resulted in smoother sound even when I was not there to listen to them.

It is possible that my brain is adapting to the sound "in the background" even if the sound is not playing but based on my admittedly limited knowledge of neurology and cognitive science things aren't wired up that way... for auditory inputs you need the actual stimulus present for the brain to "learn".
