Bright or Dim?


Have you ever noticed that when listening to music in your listening area that music seems to sound better with the lights down? To me there is a rather noticeable difference. Could be just in my mind because that's how I like to listen, or is it something more biological/scientific than that?  Could it be that the lessoning of one sense enhances the other? Maybe it's just me. Anyway I thought I would see if anyone else has the same experience. Im sure if there is an actual reason for this phenomena, that someone on this forum will have the answer :)

Fools at 20 tend to be fools at 70! Fools grow more foolish just like wisdom (the domain of the Wiz - Frank Zappa) may improve with years.

The best bet is to shut your eyes. Open eyes stimulate the optic nerve and make the brain work. Easily seen on brain scans the visual stimulation takes a lot of brain activity and it confounds listening with the distractions. All the visual needs to be screened out if you want undisturbed audio signals for ’receivers’ like your brain stem systems.
