The Making of a Jazz Audiophile...Interesting Read


I found this in one of my internet searches for all things audio. I think some of you will find this of interest, especially you "old school jazz heads" like me who are deeply into jazz. Great to hear the thoughts of legendary bassist Ron Carter who to my surprise is an audiophile. Click on the link:

Thanks for posting this interesting article.I agree with the jazz musicians. Good audio equitment allows more connection and appreciation of the beautiful music they`re able to play.The more musical emotion presented,the better the component.
Regards.
Foster_9, Reference the site you posted:

After reading Drummond's comment about 'Miles at the Plugged Nickel', I listened to it, and he is right, the drum work on 'So What' is really well recorded. I enjoyed the entire CD. That's why I like the music posts, they remind of all the good stuff you already have. Now I have to get the story on these TETRA speakers. Marsalis has them!
Cheers
Thanks, Foster_9, for the post.

I feel vindicated, somewhat.

All the best,

Lovely article. It's a win/win when musicians understand the beauty/"necessity" of fine domestic systems as part of the ideal music reproduction chain.

Rok2id, I think you misconstrue the comment that one can set up a good sounding rig for not too much money. It was an encouragement for people just entering the hobby to get their feet wet at a lower price point. You did notice, didn't you, Ron Carter's $33K pair of Tetra speakers in the home photo?
