Do you get goosebumps from music?
A study, carried out by PHD student Matthew Sachs at the University of Southern California, has revealed that people who get chills from music might have structural differences in their brain.

Serge.......Yes, I get hair raising goosebumps on my neck and shoulders during many different listening experiences. If this is due to a structural difference in my brain, I'll take it.

Not quite goosebumps.
But true story. A customer had purchased a nice system Audio Research LS28 Audio Research VT80SE Sonus Faber Amati Tradition But he said it never sounded as good as the showroom. I told him it needed to be run in first. But we also worked on the room and at this stage he had purchased a nice rug with a thick underlay. And he asked me to see what I thought. I got in to his place while he was at work and selected a few tracks on my TIDAL playlist. Stuff I was familiar with. And told him what I thought. It was getting there. But there’s still a bit of harshness when the volume knob went above 25. That evening he called and asked me what I was playing because his wife in the next room was listening in. I told him - Andrea Bocelli’s Amore album first track Amapola. Half an hour later, he texted me - she’s crying. [emoji5]🤫 Job done.

I get near goosies, but then I haven't played me torch song singers yet, just jazz during the burn in. During the test drive Simon and Garfunkel were startling real mind, so I'm sure there will be bumps aplenty. Good old Ruark, they have finally stopped busking in the rain to the line waiting to get in to the hi end nightclub; caution mind, I think it will be the coat check girlie in her booth, a mere booth but inside all the same. Just not in the audience or on the stage. Will your mid fi king lurch? It seems so.

I'm more likely to be moved to tears.
