How do you know when a stereo sounds good?

Why are so many getting all bent out of shape?

Its simple, I know it sounds great because it sounds great to me. My system has an audience of one, me. Could it sound better? Absolutely. Things can always be made better. Sometimes this can be a dramatic difference, like the recent modifications I did to my heavy plinth diy Lenco. Damped the top plate, fine tuned the isolation base I built and braced/coupled the main bearing. Huge improvement in the sonic presentation. So I know it can be better, but it’s still great as it is. 

Hello, ted_denney!  Churches with choirs are the easiest and cheapest places to hear live music. Find a church in your area that is offering a free, live music, Christmas program. Go to it, sit up front, and listen carefully. Does you system sound like that? If so, be happy. If not, where is it falling short? Now, you have a place to focus for making improvements. Enjoy the music.
