Philips 'Golden Ears' test

[Juha]

I have been working on this. I am now at 81% completion towards Golden Ears.
Already got Silver Ears.

Have a look at: http:///www.goldenears.philips.com

This is not easy. At least 3 one hour sessions to get this far.
The further you go there is more to lose and nerves set in.

I first thought I could do this on computer headphones. But later it becomes so difficult that
you need a good headphone amp. Mostly used 20 years old Sony MDR-7506 headphones on Audiolabor VV 2020.

I can recommend this to anyone. It is a good learning experience.
At the same time there is the "put your money where your mouth is" factor.

If you use mode 3 or 4 with the Caiman MKII SFW3 software the differences between the files are far easier to pick out.

If might have to buy it.
I mean I am 59 years old and they ask questions like this. Which one of these 3 files has 12kHz cut down 5 db?
My hearing is not what it used to be. I ended up boosting treble and listening at high volume.
