Audiophile Priorities and Recent Topics
@kennyc is correct. I really need to refrain from letting MC drag me down to his level - a level that only exists in a vocabulary full of "butt hurt", "rent free", YouTube links, and "whatever". Honestly, what adult talks like that? His actions will create his own inescapable "brand" so I’m fine with stepping away and allowing him to live with the legacy documented in these pages. People are smart enough to see what’s going on - that’s for sure. I’m very much encouraged by the input this thread is generating - lots of folks chiming in with their audio priority weightings. Thanks to all. |

... for the first time in the 40 odd years I’ve been working with stereo I’m happy with the sound ...I've seen comments like this before and it just amazes me. I really don't mean to sound disrespectful but just to be clear: You've been actively working at this for four decades and only now have been happy with the sound?!? That just boggles the mind. |
Cleeds: I have been “actively been working at this” for 53 years. There are moments during that time where I have been happy with the sound. But “Happy” is a moving goal post. I would say that within the last month that, thanks to the new room of 3 years and finally hitting the correct sub and main speaker placement last month, that my system made a giant leap and finally sounds the way it should. People operate with constraints: budget, location, room, time. My constraint would be considered by others to be a blessing: a 2,000 sq ft loft for $1,000 a month in the middle of NoHo in lower Manhattan. It was a 41 year trade off: huge luxurious space in the heart of the greatest city in the world in exchange for a room with lots of sound reflections. |
