Anybody pretending to know how is the sound of a system exactly by contemplating image of the gear without listening to the room acoustic is deluded....
or he sell gear and upgrade...
An acoustician dont look the gear to bash it or praise it, he listen to the room....
I am only a regular guy able to experiment in my dedicated room and this is the only essential fact i learned....
Nobody can prove me wrong about that....
I already look at one million dollars bling system that seems awful because of the ROOM....mIne is 500 bucks.... I dont pretend it is better , i do pretend that price tag means way less than acoustic....
Then pretending to know what is the real s.q. of a system without listening the acoustic seetings is meaningless...
Saying that a Sansui or a McIntosh amplifier are bad or low S.Q. or the reverse without listening them in a very good acoustically controlled room is also meaningless.. Some audiophiles called this ignorance a "taste"....
But nobody could ever know what will be the s.q difference . of the gear before and after a rightfull acoustic embeddings treatment and control...
Then taste are only that : taste, and they may change....
Acoustic dont change...Why?
Because it is the way to bent the room in relation to the specific needs of the gear and speakers using your specific ears to tune the relation...
Acoustic is a process ......Not a taste...
