Rleff, as I mentioned in my posts, I think there's a lot to love in Sound Lab speakers. They are remarkable. But when your wife is a drummer you get a tendency to judge speakers by how realistic they make drum kits sound. I've also been fascinated over the years by how rare the "shock and awe" feeling of realism is in audio. I'm honestly not trying to even imply that the Revels (or the B&Ws for that matter) are really better than the SLs, they were just better *for me* at the time I made the decision.
Why I like my home system better than live music
Not sure which forum to place this, but since speakers are the most important in the audio chain besides the room, I'll start here. I know most audiophiles including me set live music as the reference to guage reproduced music in their homes. But I've come to the conclusion I enjoy my home system better than most live music. I can count on one hand musical venues that I think absolutely outclasses any system I've heard, but in most cases live music is just sounds bad. Is it just me who feels this way?
