Am I Getting Soft Here?


I’ve just been loving my stereo lately, this despite the fact everything is far from bank-breakingly expensive and is, well, at least a few years old. Right now I’m streaming CD quality music from Idagio and the sound is just glorious. Timbres are lovely. Sure, I’m listening to a modest. perhaps a ten person Baroque chamber ensemble, but there’s a convincing sense of image, dynamics and space. I’m not in the first row of the venue but I’m far from the nosebleed section or hidden in a corner. Hoping I’m not cursing things with this post!

NOLA Boxer Speakers. Primaluna Integrated amp. Cambridge Audio streamer. Interconnects, etc., at a similar quality level. But yeah, I was able to build my listening room pretty much to audiophile precepts, and everything is painstakingly positioned.

It is what you think about your sound that matters.

Nobody else.

I was told by one visitor earlier this year that my new speakers were nothing

compared to my old ones. Stupidly I returned the trial speakers.

Long story short. After 9 months of trying speakers from Spendor, ATC, Triangle,

KEF, Philharmonic, and ten others I realized I had the best speakers

in my home to begin with. 

One comment cost me $1,000 in buying/selling fiascos. 

 

Moral of the story is-KEEP WHAT YOU LIKE !!!!
