How do you go about listening to organized noise that is pleasing to your fleshy ears and vibrating eardrum mechanisms?
I usually hear it, unfortunately, on my PATHETICALLY pathetic computer monitor built in speakers. They're not particularly good... but I'm lazy, and just using Winamp is so much more convenient than walking over to the stereo.
Which isn't a great stereo... just an adequate thing that does the job. When I'm not lazy, I'd rather use that. Autechre sounds 10,000 times better on them. THAT is an audiophile's band, I bet (I'm not an audiophile).
And if it's really late, I'll listen to CD-Rs on the 'ol discman. Or when I'm on the bus, or walking to or home from the bus stop.
I think I have to get some kick ass computer speakers pronto...

I mostly listen to music though headphones with my eyes closed because it sounds the best that way. It depends on the music though

I'm usually at my computer, or i'm carrying my discman around. I finally decided to buy some decent headphones recently, and it's improved my lisetening expereince dramatically. One day i'd like to put together a stereo system w/ a good sub. for now the headphones work quite well.
I find that music is much more interesting if you're doing something while listening. I love listening to aphex on the bus or the subway.

just stick the cable up the ass... it really feels good I tells ya!!!! :)
but I listen to music mainly with my discman... it provides excellent sound directly to the brain, and it's nice and portable... but sometimes I listen with my stereo, or my computer speakers...

my computer speakers S U C K they are horrible at anything above minimal listening volume.. they screw up the eq.. certain fequencies aer much louder, that sort of thing
i HATE listening to music on them.. i almost never do i listen on my sony headphones (REAL headphones, not earbuds or that wrap-around-style shit)
they aren't even THAT good, but they are the best i have access too, and MUCH better than my copmuter speakers
i have a stereo in my room, its not too great, but not bad either
$200, mid-range, i guess.. i almost always just listen w/ headphones though.. im too lazy to burn ALL my music onto CD-Rs
the only time i really use CDs is w/ my discman on the bus/in the car/ at work
and then i use my sony's w/ my discman, so i guess SONY has a monopoly on my ears:)

i planning to get good computer speakers w/ a subwoofer soon, when i have some money
also, im spending like $100 to fix this old GOOD technics amp and tuner from like the 70s, along w/ these 2 big ass speakers w/ it
their loud as hell and they sound REALLY good clear, and great bass
and they look cool too! chrome/aluminum (something like that), so they look all classy, yet still high tech
no black plastic!

Running the computer sound output to the aux input on the stereo was like a revelation when I first did that. It was nothing but MP3 from there on out. If you are listening through your computer speakers and there is a stereo sitting right there then go do it today!

I've got a great pair of Yamaha computer speakers with a sub-woofer, connected up to my laptop; really hate listening to music on anything else now...the sub adds so much, music is so much more weighty and actually feels like it has some physical presense....
Do yourself a favour and get a sub....they ain't that expensive...
