The HiFi Merry-Go-Round!

I must be “HiFi” curious…in an ascetic sort of way.

My system is a means to an end….enjoying music to its fullest.

life is a law of averages…..except for you and me…

One thing is sure for me ...

Since i created my last small room with the less costlier of all the speakers i ever bought , i am amazed by the results of my modification on them and by a so good sound ( not high end for sure😊 i dont claim the impossible here ) from so small self powered speakers ... Timbre is not bad but even good , soundstage encompass me and include me and the imaging is good... So much i listen music amazed and happy ...

A minimal acoustical satisfying experience is possible passed some threshold of mechanical, electrical and acoustical optimization ..

I am proud of my S.Q. cost ratio and i am not jealous and desesperate by bad sound as it was in 2000 when i was owning no amplifier nor any dac anymore , and when i decided to go headphones... But no headphones ever satisfied me in spite of all my modifications , nor any speakers till i learned acoustics by experiments ..

Now i know enough , i was able to recreate a second system modifying the speakers porthole and tweeter and modifying my  best headphone for the better   ...

I am happy and proud ..

learning and creativity over big money ...

though I've been slowly upgrading for decades, I always was happy with what I had, so never felt the merry go round...currently at point where no major purchases lurking...

I’m neither on nor off the Merry-go-round.   I love my music and my systems that present it.   I’m also open to new ideas and equipment to improve the presentation.  Sometimes I shop and buy, sometimes I don’t.
