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

Well, the same set of quality speakers will basically sound the same regardless of amp, cables, power cords, etc. So it's not surprising. 

Op I have 2 main systems where I compare my low cost system, musicality and musical involvement is very close. But liveness and hearing more that’s where my main 2 systems shine. Low cost systems can only do so much not enough to beat my main systems. What the Andra and my KLH does the ELac can’t.

For sure what my Tannoy dual gold concentric could do , never my small active 4 inches woofer from M-audio even heavily modified as i did, can do it...😁

But guess what ! 😊

Not knowing acoustics and nothing about audio at the times i owned the Tannoy , i enjoy more right now and i had more acoustics balanced factors experience with these very low cost M-Audio speakers compared to the better refined design of the mythical Tannoy which anyway i never learned to use at their optimum ( i was frustrated by the sound changing amp and never thinking about the Tannoy embeddings in the house/room). 😁

The main point of this thread is this : knowledge most of the time beat price tags and if it is not the case , basic electrical, mechanical and acoustical knowledge can anyway takes any system to his optimum workings and we can bodly go where no one had gone before with the same speakers... 😊

Thanks a lot for your informative post  which will add weight to the idea that money alone dont define audio experience ....

I am not amazed but I can appreciate a low cost system that sounds nice.  The decision comes when something really outperforms and then you have to consider spending a little more for that sound.

Enjoy.
