Acoustics and Critical Listening.
As @ erik_squires and others have often mentioned ; the room is often forgotten . We put too much amphasis
on electronics.

"...As @ erik_squires and others have often mentioned ; the room is often forgotten We put too much emphasis on electronics..." A really good system in a crappy room will still sound better than crappy system in a good room. |
An average system in a very good room may sound better than a good system in a crappy room. I think, the point of link up above was about the amount of money , we spend on upgrading cables , upgrading DAC , amplifiers , speakers , power conditionners , etc. A fraction of that amount used for room acoustic treatment may be a better use of money. I see this as basic . We have all experienced , expensive systems in audio show that sounded like Wallmart gears. |
OP it is 1/2 the listening experience, but on the average less than 5% spent there. I think those numbers are creeping up though.:-) If Gear is all lumped into a pile and the (rest) environment you set up in is everything else.. It’s 1/2 the formula to get sound, without gear. Just acapella, it is sound + the environment (the room). It could be an Amphitheater and one singer.. 50/50 I’d say... Regards |
