Dare to Compare

Compare the sound of speakers, online, while listening to headphones?? HUH?? Audio retailer Crutchfield says yes! You’ll need a pair of headphones that’s in Crutchfield’s database, like the inexpensive Audio-Technica ATH-M20x’s I have.

This setup, created by a couple smart guys with doctorates, is causing quite an online buzz. I’m having a lot of fun playing with it, using WAV files of my own, made over the years. Some music has striking differences between speakers, while other samples sound surprisingly similar.
