Listen to it

I have always said that asking how somthing sounds is a difficult question. It really can't be put in words. It's like trying to describe how a wine taste. I don't really drink wine but I was trying to buy some wine as a gift and was researching tasting notes and was "blown away" buy how people describe taste. I couldn't relate at all. It's the same with sound. You just got to hear stuff for yourselves. Nothing can relace the listening experience.

Now, I understand about asking what people like to use, but how do you know what they have heard or how comprehensive their A/B comparisons are. For me, I got to hear it and it only takes a minute and you know. Please don't take my word as difinitive. Listen to what you are thinking about getting because it may become a peice of gear you will have for a long time and it will ulitimatly, for better or worse, effect the quality of your recordings.
