matching cartridge and speakers

Dear Geoch, this is not about elitist behavior nor such a state of mind - it is about logic and using one's brain.
"Matching" speaker and cartridge.
Oh please .... I certainly have a lot of understanding for many "each his own"-attitudes.
I am certainly not questioning Inna's original post - I have no problem with the initial question.
"Bravery" ultimately is the overcome of fear.
So fear has to be present to display bravery.
Don't think that Inna was driven by fear nor bravery here - he put out a unusual question.
Matching is of paramount importance in analog as well as digital audio.
You will find few people out there at all who are more concerned and involved in exactly this aspect of fine-tuning an audio set-up.

But - and this is my vital point here - even the idea of "matching" the first and last step of the audio chain implicit that you do so to mask/compensate accepted faults in the rest of the chain.
If this seems as a suitable way to anything near a balanced sounding system, than - sorry - you are lost from the very beginning.
And - it's élite, not elit.

Your last post is the epitome of the cruel reality in audio and of course WE NEED TO OVERTURN THIS AT LAST.
Very serious My dear D. This is the reality and this is the honest, real & valuable contribution of a Agon member.
My self-sarcasm is not "brilliant". It is true and sincere.
Unless you feel that the self-route to progression is not allowed to exposed in public. I want to point, demonstrate and prove the path of the wrong direction. No need to hide things that can be of a major help here.

Well - reality bites ...... which is an inevitable side-effect of reality .... it is real.
Enjoy the trip.
As a serious epigraph: do take care to match cartridge's dynamic-mechanical parameters with the moving effective mass and energy conductivity of your tonearm.
Likewise try to match the output stage of your amplifier according to your speakers x-over/voice coils inductance/resistance and capacitance.
Those are the things to match if you want to "match" speakers and cartridge.
Match their parameters with the direct partners.
For real world's sake and best results.

Now you talking. We were in a complete agreement from start. The only difference is that I choose to focus on the brain storm after the marketing onslaught in our hobby and how can alter the logical steps to the direction of a twisted reality.
And -it's epilogue, not epigraph.

And -it's epilogue, not epigraph<<

Sorry Aristotle, epigraph was used correctly.

Epigraph- "A motto or quotation, as at the beginning of a literary composition, setting forth a theme".

Epilogue- "A short poem or speech spoken directly to the audience following the conclusion of a play".

And it's "now you're talking", not "not you talking".

Unless of course you be from the hood.
