My friend is a different sort of audiophile. He finds every setup and location to be a new opportunity to hear the music he loves in a way that he's never heard it before.
I always struggle with that for equalizers. I think, I understand the concept, but no matter how much I fuck up the sliders on the equalizer, I always find it interesting more than anything else. It sounds different, sure enough, but is it better or worse? No idea.
Oooh oooh oooh! Now's my chance to say a snobby thing! "They're called faders, not sliders."
I learned this from also calling them sliders.
Also, when I get to run a camera for work, I like fucking with the AV guys by asking them to "turn down the sound dimmer, I can hear myself too loud on the headset." (The comms mixer has knobs to control this at my end.)
That's really cool!! I've never thought about doing that but it reminds me of this:

Does he have any samples of where he's experimented at?
Samples? No. He just listens and enjoys. And pulls out some measuring equipment, lol
