Does your system have jump?

if it's dynamics that you're seeking, then go with horns

Yes, my system has jump.

Although proper vibration control, line conditioning, cabling, and decent or better full range speakers contribute significantly to the quality of 'jump', none of these improvements, even as a collective whole compare to the overall 'jump' factor provided by my amplifier and its associated dedicated line.

The dedicated line is essential because without it, the dynamics flatten, even at lower volumes.

Personally, I think it would be rather silly to say the music has jump. Especially in light of the fact that the topic of this thread is about equipment providing the 'jump' factor, thus implying (and rightfully so) that some systems don't.

I would think anybody who's around a while, would have already realized that the vast majority of systems out there ain't got no 'jump', PR&T, absolute bass control, and/or macro-dynamics worth mentioning.

Good afternoon Stehno-
Silly or not, it's still the music. It really doesn't matter what you hear it through (sometimes I forget about equipment elitists). Do your toes tap "only' in front of "special" systems or can you chair-dance while driving down the road? And, like much of audio, "jump" is subjective. Do I think my system has "jump"? Sure. Do you think my system has "jump"? Maybe not. Do I care?

Mt10425, I believe the elitist attitude started with you when you made your first unqualified and rather smug post above.

That somehow no matter what kind of system (whether it be in an elevator or transistor radio) one listens to it's the music that has the jump. You are certainly free to think silly thoughts, but your first post above would seem to be far outside the intended realm of the original poster.

Good evening Stehno-
It's interesting that all of your posts end with IMO. Initially, i voiced a simple opinion about what I think actually jumps. You personalized it by calling it silly. So be it. Apparently the only opinion that counts is yours. I responded to an unwarranted personal attack and you didn't like that and so you attacked me again. I don't remember pissing you off in a previous life but, who knows? Seems you went out of your way to make friends with Rsbeck in another post too.
