Logical next step from Legacy Signature SEs? Around $15K...

@mihorn Youre kidding, right? Exactly what are we to take from some crappy YouTube recording? It has no credibility or purpose. This is not Reddit. Good song though — I’ll give you that.

No. I am not kidding. Which part of my post is kidding to you?

Crappy YT recording? It is your cellphone speaker sounding crappy. YT sounds good enough to understand musicality. Please show me any live recording of Legacy Signature SE sound better than my recording. Do you think my WTA speaker sound better in YT, but vice-versa in real life? That’ll be a joke. Our ears can trick us, but microphones can’t lie. Alex/WTA

YT sounds good enough to understand musicality.

YT is lossy audio and whenever I’ve used it as a source in my main system it sounds like it. I think it’s useless as a comparative tool because there are just so many variables involved. I understand that Youtube is a tool for "influencers," but they’ll have to accept that not everyone is so easily "influenced."

That is the character of your system. In my system, I am satisfied with YT SQ. Below is sound comparison of Flac vs. YT in my system.

These live recordings are from YT videos.

If you love the Legacy sound, why not move up the line?
