You can believe in cable upgrades and be a sensing type. Sensing vs. intuition is basically how you collect and process information to get to a conclusion - intuitive people go with their gut and try and fit information they collect into a framework that they trust and understand, sensing people distrust their gut and go by what they can see and hear, building conclusions as they go. An intuitive person is just as likely to hold fast to the idea that cables can make no difference, and a sensing person can easily decide that cables do make a difference because they hear one. Thinking people can like colored sound just as much as the next person - how you enjoy music's presentation doesn't really correlate with how much you let emotions drive your decisions. As a T, I could easily hear something, know that it's colored, and still decide that it's the way I get most pleasure from music. I could see DIY correlating with being an S vs. and N I suppose, as S's tend to be happy spending their time on detail-oriented work. Reading charts and analyzing data would also correlate more with being an S than being a T. |

But the correlation between intuition and believing in cables does work, since intuitive types are the ghost story tellers, the religious ones and they find it easy to believe and go with their 'gut feelings'. Sensing types are hands on and they could be intuitive and thinking but at the same time they like to interact with objective reality, they're the ones who mod headphones, built cables and write reviews. Extrovert feelings types are the ones who organize meets and get everyone together and are life of the party. they might like colored sound or not but they'll usually like what everyone else likes. Then there is the introvert thinking types who are the ones who argue strongly against cables and any other esoteric idea which does not match with their logical framework. They're interested in why a headphone sounds good rather than what makes it sound good. |
