It’s funny to me after 18 months of paying attention to the “professional” reviewers… none of them have tried to start a wiki or something like to build a common vocabulary/jargon list which is clear.

Browsing the /r/headphones front page every day doesn't count as paying attention. Crinacle and Precogvision have posted detailed articles on how they perceive and evaluate technicalities.

How dare you provide factual answer

I mean its the same for musicians. We describe sounds as fuzzy, thin, thick, warm, bright, moody, and so on. It works because we have a common reference of experience (im talking about guitar).
It always baffles me how headphone reviewers get so much schtick for their vocab. Sound is hard to describe.

IIRC Head-Fi did it a loooooong time ago but it never really caught on. Also I’m sure newer reviewers like Resolve could do a much better version.

Something like this? https://www.head-fi.org/threads/describing-sound-a-glossary.220770/
I found it helpful to use this when describing what I was hearing.
Unless you mean understanding graphs or something

Yep! I think that’s the one I was thinking of.
