Proof of improvements in audio system sound quality....

i was at a audio store yesterday with my wife. she was very unhappy to be there...

but i told her to stay because of course we are in love. she said she would help me with choosing a audio system on valentines day. but she did not keep her promise.

we had to leave the store early since she had to cook dinner.

so why am i telling you guys this?

its all because i got real expert opinions from a sales person at that audio store.

it was about my last topic ---- tweaks with audio systems

i believe for some time, i have believed that @mahgister was getting great sound quality. 

sure it looks messy, but never judge a book by the cover.... right?

so i asked the sales person about it and he said that the sound quality would be very bad...also he explained the copper tape blocks and other stuff would be bad for music and reduce the clarity of the sound. the sales guy said that @mahgister was crazy. actually i think i get premium sound quality with my earbuds and smartphone...so why build a system anyway?? i think the sales guy at the store is right. 

so what do you guys think is right?? i am lost for words and in complete confusion of my of state in my mind at the moment. i need someone to help explain how to make a less expensive system sound better, truthfully. with no lies at all.

@waytoomuchstuff 

it is a VERY BAD idea. i can not do a repair on any audio products. I AM NOT QUALIFIED.

@mastering92 

You wrote A LOT. I am greatful to you.... are you a professor of this subject?? i am learning a lot like being back in college years ago....thats what i wished to UNDERSTAND!!! like why is something followed by so many zeros for price, but something else is cheaper???! thank you so much.

also i will look at your profile. have a very nice day.

my wife looked at this whole page....she is happy that so many people are helping me out. 

i believe that headphones are right path for me with audio. i want to hear everything and even if it sounds bad, i am not going to be angry. how can i do this for $100 ? 

i can build a small system for this cost. since now my livlihood and life story are supported by my wife. i love her to be moon and back. don't you guys think i am the bad guy.

"the channel separation will not be the width of your head, rather it will approximate to infinity since each ear hears only one channel"

Attempts a humor are a hit and miss proposition. It’s been said that laughter is a form of protest to something absurd or ridiculous. If it’s not perceived as funny, then it’s just viewed as ... absurd and ridiculous. Which seems to be the case here. Just my attempt to poke a little fun at ourselves for our occassional overemphasis on numbers.

I did enjoy your comments and learned something this morning. Thanks for sharing.

@waytoomuchstuff     Thank you.  I did not pick up on your humour.  There's so much pseudo-science on here that I took your post as reasoned analysis.  Sorry.

maghister is the disciple of millercarbon...

LOL or was it the other way around?!

Sorry I didn't catch that earlier. Well then, Good God. How did we get here?! is there an audio bible that mentions more "disciples" or the particular feats of either @mahgister and @millercarbon ? 

How did you reach such a conclusion, @digitalviper ?

That's a funny word as well. Have you changed your opinion about this recently, or has it remained a concrete fact? Please share details. I will listen to you...
