I only quoted you. Why are you throwing a hissy fit?
But do you know what they say about opinions?
High End System Building. How important is the matching, cabling and room? Thoughts ?
The last 20 years as an audiophile and now a dealer has taught me a very important lesson. Everything matters. The equipment can be great but no matter how much you spend the matching is very important. The cabling is also important. Some think cabling is all about making it sound better. I prefer my cabling to not get in the way. It’s like it can’t be a clogged faucet for your sound. Materials and shielding are very important. In addition to that the room is very important. You may not have a perfect room but you build your system to work in the room you have. I don’t have all the answers but you can’t just spend money and have a great system. Combination of equipment, cabling and room has gotten me there. I’ve tried a lot of gear and cables and this is how I feel. What are your thoughts everyone?
When someone is polite enough to qualify his post to another person at the end by : "it is my opinion too " it is a politeness formula...This say for a third person reading it : it is only our opinion... When a third party , a dude come suggesting that this "opinion" is like the paper we use to wipe something i will not name , instead of answering by arguments , it is an insult ... Do you get it ? Do you need a drawing ? |
@gregm @mahgister well here we go. I completely disagree. Point blank in you build higher quality speakers and amplifiers that reduce noise and distortion. If you research how to use better materials and design. If you spend time researching and developing those products. They are just going to sound better on most occasions. Typically most but not all but most high end audio makers put a lot of time, resources and intellectual property in to the finished products. Look if you don’t want to spend of will not spend on that. Then that is fine. But no matter what room you are in. If the products have proper synergy and the build quality is better in the higher end equipment it’s just going to sound better. Can you get a great sound at a cheaper price and a better built room yes. But the level of transparency, detail , soundstage , speed, low noise floors and decay in some of the higher end products can not be touched no matter what room you put the lower to midfi equipment into. I have lived with both in my room with extended demos or either ownership. Could one consider it too much to pay. Yeas. But better is better because it built, designed, researched and developed better. If you know how to get synergy in the high end it’s a wrap. We do all have opinions. This is clearly mines. |
