Musical or scientific/technical background?


Having been asked (well not me personally, but all of Audiogondom in general) how much I was worth, I think my question is not too bold. How many out there have studied music in some way or another? How many have studied physics, electronics, electrical engineering? No, I am not limmiting it to a degree in any of these fields, self-taught people are included in my query. I am sorry if some existing thread may have covered this, having now discovered that some of the topics I put out were not brand spanking new. Some may think I have an ulterior motive, perhaps. Don't we all some kind of agenda. Please don't feel threathened, step right up, express yourself.

Interesting question--for me--both. I'm a medical physicist and trained for 8+ years in piano and still play regularly.
I perform in a professional chorus and I am also a very heavy concert goer. I have assembled my audio system(s) totally by ear. The techical stuff means very little to me. As Duke Ellington said: "If it sounds good, it is good".
Absrtact7, that sounds like an interesting career. I myself was fortunate to be able to take 'physics of sound & music', 'songwriting'(very difficult course), and some musical appreciation class at college. The funny thing about physics is that the text had tips for buying a stereo in the last chapter.
