@rooze I definitely understand. I try to play a mix of multiple recordings in our show room. We hope people come and stay 15 to 20 minutes. In that time we try to play 4 different tracks and mix them up to give the listener a range.
REAL MUSIC VS. SHOW MUSIC PERFORMANCE AT AUDIO SHOWS. PRESENTATION V. PERFORMANCE? WHY?
One of the things that I have noticed is the kind of music being played to show system performance. Full disclosure I’m with Infigo Audio. But as an audiophile I think it is important to hear your music in these systems. Which means non hi rez stuff. Stuff you would listen to in your system at home. I try to play everything at shows to show our performance. Some systems to me are all presentation not as much performance. I play funk rock pop classical jazz folk R&B as well as test track to show what a system can do across a genres. I think it is important to show that a system can perform on all materials. Some systems look good in presentation and sound great on hi rez and test tracks but are not musical involving and may not actually perform well across genres. Thoughts ?

It is HIS MONEY and you want it real bad, don’t you? He has EVERY RIGHT to judge your whatever you sell, based on the 1 track he likes. If your junk didn’t sound right on his favorite track, NO SALE. If you can’t handle that reality, quit this biz and go find another job. |
@deep_333 one of things I say is. If I’m going to be listening to my favorite cd over and over and the system can’t execute it. Then I’m not going to spend the coin. We are talking a lot of money on some of these systems. I play a mix of stuff so they can hear what they want then I play a great recording for reference. |
