How competitive are you with your system?

@carlos269  I only offered the two old videos as example of what I feel is the reason why video over the web is not a good way to judge a system. In my examples, what cannot be heard, particularly in the Miles Davis track is the ability of the system to portray depth and also air. While my current system is far superior in all ways to the older versions, I know that the increase in depth portrayal, resolution ( which I greatly worked on) and soundstage definition would not be able to be picked up on a video, since it was not before. 

@isellgoodgear Ok good information. I have way to many systems and equipment to detail and list them all, but they are chronicled and described only. Just use goggle and you will find the details on my “OKTAN6”, “WAAR”, “Pinnacle”, and other of my systems.

YT video can p-up air and depth fine to me. I made 2 videos. One at 9pm (noisy power) and one at 1am (clean power). Therefore, I always records after midnight.

@daveyf Depth and width of soundstage is a function of the playback speakers as well as the system’s audio recording so yes that is one of the things, along with imaging, that is hard to assess from these system videos as you cannot 100% attribute it to the audio recording, but “air” is well communicated and discerned from system’s audio recordings shot from the listening position. The key is to be consistent with the speakers that you are listening to any two system videos on.

Money??? We don't need no stinkin' money.

For a couple cents worth of filament, I can 3D print spacers to go between the Heil reflectors and the bodies that will create a greater difference in sound than $$$ cables.

As it is, I just push the reflectors in tight and if you try to pull them back out a hair (and I do mean a hair) you don't necessarily get the spacing consistent top to bottom and between the left and right speaker.  This will take care of that.

And if I don't like what the spacing does, it's only a couple cents more to try it again at a bit different distance.

For me, this is what makes it a hobby as well as a source of relaxation.
