Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused

@mijostyn sadly you’re not only wrong you’re wildly overconfident. There is nothing accurate about sound reproduction anywhere. Not your ears. Not any system. It’s all degrees and taste. Dogma is dangerous in life and in audio. Right or wrong is dangerous too. People with your worldview are antithetical to great music making and the enjoyment of music. Each person sets up a system with technical and subjective features. Nothing absolutely right about any of it. Let’s get that straight. Lol. Mental illness is the refusal to see grey as grey. People do this for clearly personal reasons. Ironically. There is no proof of a right vs. a wrong here. Rightness is another matter.

@donavabdear everything you’re saying is subjective. I would cringe at what you call the best work on your Genis. If you’re happy that’s all that matters :). A great listener doesn’t need the system to tell them what could be better. And there is no polarity of good : bad work. It’s all in degrees. A system that blinds the degrees is adding it’s own thing.

Why can't you repair class D amps? You can't fix them just replace the components that have failed. I have no experience working class D amps. 

With the right tools and parts why would Class D be any harder to fix than any other amplifier. It is rare for the amplifiers to fail. It is more likely the power supply fails.

@donavabdear do you have a room response comparison for your two systems?  I would not be surprised if the difference is more frequency response than anything.
