Dear all,

my name is Fiona and I am currently working on an MA dissertation about the influence of different learning processes on the appreciation of classical music at City University London.

I have compiled a short questionnaire that is aimed at anyone who enjoys classical music which I would invite you to take. It is entirely anonymous and will take less than five minutes to complete. You can access it here: Music Appreciation Survey

As of now, there is little to no research on my specific area of interest, which is why every response is much needed and greatly appreciated!!

Thank you :)

Hi Guys - the URL (in the quote above) is not working because a " (i.e. single quotes) is @ the end; if removed, the link then works.  Dave :)

Crossfeeders reduce spatial distortion and make the sound more natural

Done.
Your sample might be quite biased, if much of the participants are from classical music forums, btw.

North Star, may I ask you to elaborate?
One of the reasons I chose to share this on a classical music board is that I am looking for experiences of classical music enthusiasts. The fact that you regularly spend your leisure time sharing music and discussing it is to me a solid indicator of your enthusiasm and makes you more interesting than "textbook cases", meaning for example people who have received years of classical training but still lack the "passion" for music, if you will.

Done.
I answered no a lot! I suspect I am one of the few here with no musical background in the home or school, or training of any sort.
I did laugh when I saw the question about 20 recordings a year ...

OOPS - I thought that was 20 recordings per month and still answered YES!  ;) :D  Dave
