Close your eyes and hear the music ?


It seems like music sounds better when I close my eyes. Some people claim that it sounds better with their glasses on. Someone once told me that if someone suggested that music sounded better in the nude that a large group of audiophiles would swear to it! What makes music better for you ?

I am DEFINITELY going to have to get my fiance to come down and listen to more music with me.
For me what enhances the music most is...better equipment. Seriously though, lights off does it, as does lying down, even though it puts my ears at the wrong angle. Oh, and I actually prefer having my wife with me, whether we're making our own music or not.
For serious listening the lights are always down; low level mood lighting is better than total darkness. Something nice to drink, like a good wine or brandy, doesn't hurt, either. Has anyone else pick up on how much all of these descriptions sound like the latter stages of a good date?

BTW, Kitch, what's the source of that quote? I'd direly like to know.
Since i think that everyone was pretty much afraid to "go there", i'll have to explain my "inside joke" about Bob's system. The "side effects" of having horn loaded speakers MIGHT be that it makes one "horny". With some good tunes and his woman present, who could blame him ??? : ) Sean

I have not heard anyone mention yawning. It clears my ears and the music sounds much better.
