Sometimes I wonder if my 'music room' needs a sub, new cabling and 'room' treatments.

"Many researchers had long assumed that the human brain must be equipped with some sort of music room, a distinctive piece of cortical architecture dedicated to detecting and interpreting the dulcet signals of song. "

From The New York Times:

BASICS: New Ways Into the Brain’s ‘Music Room’

M.I.T. researchers have devised a radical approach to brain imaging that reveals what past studies missed about neural responses to music.

Hmmm, verrrry interesting. So it's not so much my room that needs acoustic treatments as my mind. I'll have to work on that.  :thumb:
