I like my music systems like I like my baths ...
warm, relaxing, with no distractions.
I try to always respect that each of us buys for pleasure, and culture, and we have different goals in mind, so I thought it might be time for me to share what I actually try to get. You don't have to agree with me, it is your wallet and time and joy. I just want you all to know where I'm coming from.
In particular, I like buttery smooth responses, sometimes a bit warm. So I liked the Parasound A21's when I had them. I _need_ good room acoustics to be able to spend time with a system. Other audiophiles are able to filter out the room and they literally don't know they are doing it. They can hear through the hash of the room without skipping a beat. This makes audio shows a living nightmare for me, and a conundrum to try to share with others.
So my latest rig:
- Raspberry Pi running PiCore player
- Mytek Brooklyn (original)
- Luxman 507ux
- GIK Acoustics - 5 wall panels, 2 soffit traps
- Custom speakers (see link)

Please feel free to share and ask questions, with the understanding I'm going to ignore non-constructive posts.
