Critical oppositions made using inadequate equipment.
Is it really possible to critically estimate tt or cartridge characteristics using for example cheap monitor speakers or other weak component in the system ?
Yes it's possible but only up to a point which is a good thing. If you have a good source your system will continue to improve and reveal more as you build around it. The same holds true if it's a crappy source and great speakers or whatever component mix.
No you really can not but just remember sound is relative and not related to cost, some of the best sounding gear does not cost that much, especially speakers.
