Without the music, what's the point of chasing sound reproduction perfection?
Once a certain level is obtained, going to the next level makes so little difference it is basically pointless.
There are some crucial things all loudspeakers require. Grounding speaker baskets and magnets makes an insane improvement. As does treating the front of the baffle so sounds are absorbed and not reflected towards the listener.
Isn't it really about quality of recording?
Are most of us just chasing our tails?
I mean you listen to a variety of recordings and some sound a lot better than others. Your system has limited impact on how good recordings can be. I am awestruck how some music sounds and clearly my system has nothing to do with it, it all occurred when the music was produced.
We talk about soundstage and imaging and I am not sure all the effort and money put toward a better system can really do that much for most of what we listen to because the quality is lesser than other recordings.
You can walk into a room and hear something that really sounds good and you say wow what an amazing System you have but no!!! It's the recording dummy not the system most of the time. Things don't sound so good it's probably the recording.
The dealers don't wanna talk about Recording quality no one seems to want to talk about it and why is this? Because there's no money to be made here that's why.
