About the importance of the room vs the electronics

setting up the system in the room and making sure it meshes with your room is as important as the electronics in the system. A lot of people waste much time and money chasing sound that setup and critical evaluation can fix instead of spending thousands on electronics.

There's also the absolute truth that getting a good room often ends a lot of gear swapping and that you may end up with smaller, less expensive, but not less performing, gear as your room now behaves very well with a wide variety of gear.

You said it more wisely than me....

You are probably wiser than me.... But anyway we think the same....

My best to you...

Thank God - now my Bose Wave Radio will sound so good with my new room treatments!  Your room cannot make a piano sound as real as a system can because of room treatments IMO.

Happy Listening.

Who knows, with a very little room treatment , your Bose Wave Radio  may sound nearly as goog as the ´´ custom designed Tube Audio Components. DHT 101D Tube preamplifier, 6SN7 Tube preamplifier, 1010D Tube DAC, Tube Phono Stage, Hybrid Stereo amplifier ´´  that you built .  Your Bose may sound   ´´  like nothing you have ever heard before! ´´

I can get mad too.

@maxwave - who's mad?
