Spectral/MIT

Why do so many people seem to hate this combination. I've rarely read more vindictive posts here on Audiogon compared to reports about other stuff. I listened to an all Spectral/MIT system ( 360 amp and 30 pre) the other day with big Sound Lab speakers and found it very musical and easy to listen to. No HIFI here, but a very easy, relaxed, but also, if needed, a highly dynamic presentation, coherent and well balanced. So what's up? Should I have my ears examined or the Spectral distractors go see a shrink?

czapp: no offense taken. i was expressing, perhaps, a too obscure allusion to uriah heep.

I have avoided making comments up until now, as I am very prejudiced about the topic here. I met the owner of Boulder Electronics at a CES show, back when he was showing with Soundlab. It only took 10 Min. for us to get into an argument that made me so angry, that I had to leave the room before I lost it. I hope Cornfedboy gets along better with him than I if he really has purchased product from them.

bigcigarman; interesting observation by someone who knows. Nicely and gently put.  Honestly, most people just won't ever hear Spectral - but they will have a comment ;)
