@ps - I forgot to add that to have the greatest success you have to start at the speakers AND the source since nobody can agree on where to start. Focusing on everything is always the best policy. Also, I’ve noticed that if someone asks for an opinion on a specific item like interconnects they will get advice ranging from a specific interconnect to every other possible interconnect to needing to upgrade another component or tweak in their system to treating their room (aka @erik_squires) to everyones crazy (aka @jasonbourne52) The call outs are intended in good fun, we all have our roles to play :-) |
@mapman *LOL* Yeah, some warm milk with an adult additive ought to help, too.... ;) Enjoy what you're doing to enjoy what you do the rest of the time with it. Which part of that you place first is basically the difference....or not. *S*😏 One's gear can't replace live, whereas live can disappoint v. a reproduction of the same set.... "The roar of the grease paint, the smell of the crowd...." How much spent on concerts (esp. now....tix ain't trix,no...) v. the mass you've assembled so patiently, patently....is an interesting contrast to muse... ....but then, I can listen to White Zombie being More Human Than Human, and feel safe from the crowd... ;) Just good clean fun loud.....J

At some point I realized that no matter how good my system gets it will never approximate the experience of sitting in a concert hall with a live orchestra. And in the realm of pop there is rarely a master tape, due to all the processing in constructing songs and mixing. Therefore since there is no way of getting “The Truth” I have to settle for an illusion of it. Some times the flavors vary, but it is still an illusion. This realization has made it very easy to be cured of Upgraditis |
