Are there other people like me ? Amazed by their low cost system :)


Are there other people so much amazed by a relatively low cost system , they consider that is not a stopgap but instead a minimally satisfying ectasy... Each day i am amazed by my speakers and headphone... Am i deaf? Am i ignorant of high end ? Be assured that i know better system with higher acoustic experience and more refined exist ...

My point is an experienced and felt minimal threshold of acoustic qualities and well done and well realized and well manifested acoustic factors exist for me and are at play, for the price invested; so much so , i consider any upgrade way less tempting and if possible would be more, way more , costlier to appear as a real upgrade in quality... For sure an upgrade of part at low cost unbeknowst to me is possible but i must live with what i have for now but i feel no frustration at all. 😊

Am i the only one deluded in this way or enlightened in this way ? Pick your choice of word.... 😎

Restored Pioneer SX-1250, Denon DP-59L turntable, Denon DL-103R/Musikraft Lithium headshell, Magnepan 1.7i speakers, Anticables throughout.  Total investment about $6,500.  Completely satisfying to my 70 year old ears.

This thread is not about me even if i make remarks and thank those who gave their experience with relative low cost system...

If you read it  i ask others testimonies in their "similar"  audio journey and about their own experience of the their relative  S.Q. /low cost ratio... Then it is not about my low cost system...

Now you are not in the obligation to read my answers... Read others people posts here ... It is informative and enlightening precisely because it does not comes from me and is intended for beginners also...

Then any  innuendo about my posts count is just that : an innuendo ...

Thanks anyway for your "due respect"...😊

And instead of asking people to quit creating their  thread pass over their thread if you are not interested, i do it each day...... Is it not more  not only logical  but more meaningful  , i say that as an added benefit for your next posts about anyone else here creating a thread  ? 😊

 

 

But enough already about your low cost system. That horse has been beaten to death, and the word count is overwhelming.

 

 

Thanks chiadrum ... and jmarini2

 

This will surely help others in their journey... welcome to Audiogon

my best 😊

 

OP yes Iam amazed of my low cost used gear system.ELAc speakers b6, MIT S3 speakers cable, schiit preamp tube, Norh mono block $400 , Njoeb marantz cd players. Audioquest cobra ic.This system is purely musical and very involving.
