 All-Fours - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
All-Fours, is a card game known in America as Old Sledge, or Seven Up, is usually played by four players, with the full pack of fifty-two cards, which rank in play as at Whist, the ace being the highest, and the two the lowest.
The expression on "all fours" sometimes refer to a crouched position of being on hands and knees, or bending down to touch the floor or ground with both hands while still standing (also see Adho Mukha Svanasana).
Historically, All-Fours was a card game played by the lower classes, and thus even the term "Jack" was at one time considered vulgar.

 4 - Enneagram Type Four: The Individualist -Overview
There were few qualities in their parents that they identified with, so Fours began to inventory all the things that they were not—all of the ways in which they were unlike the people around them.
On the other hand, what makes healthy Fours healthy is not that they have freed themselves once and for all from the turbulence of their emotions, but that they have found a way to ride that current to some further destination.
Unhealthy Fours are so completely alienated from others, and ironically, even from themselves, that they despair of ever finding a way out of their excruciating self-consciousness.

 Paul Wertico: Creative Fours
However, after first learning some of the more traditional and musical approaches to exchanging fours - such as playing things that open up a musical dialogue with whomever they're exchanging fours, or playing something that relates to the melody - their playing begins to "open up".
The concept of trading fours is a time-honored tradition in jazz.
Also, because of playing rock and pop, some of them have become used to playing fills and phrases that begin and/or end on the "1", so the idea of "breaking up the time" can be somewhat challenging.

In terms of audio thrills, the treble of the Response Fours (and the other Response-series speakers) is as equally noteworthy and deserving of long-standing praise as, say, the bass of a Krell amp or the midrange of a CAT preamp.
Because the Response Fours have been the centerpiece of my system for over two years, they have played along with a ton of other equipment -- literally, I bet.
It’s important for me to mention that the Fours have worked superbly with all of the equipment I’ve had in for review, never creating mismatches with amps because of their benign impedance characteristics (8 ohms nominal) and reasonable sensitivity (a claimed 89dB/W/m).
