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


Are there other people so much amazed by a relatively low cost system , they consider that is not a stopgap but instead a minimally satisfying ectasy... Each day i am amazed by my speakers and headphone... Am i deaf? Am i ignorant of high end ? Be assured that i know better system with higher acoustic experience and more refined exist ...

My point is an experienced and felt minimal threshold of acoustic qualities and well done and well realized and well manifested acoustic factors exist for me and are at play, for the price invested; so much so , i consider any upgrade way less tempting and if possible would be more, way more , costlier to appear as a real upgrade in quality... For sure an upgrade of part at low cost unbeknowst to me is possible but i must live with what i have for now but i feel no frustration at all. šŸ˜Š

Am i the only one deluded in this way or enlightened in this way ? Pick your choice of word.... šŸ˜Ž

In answer to the question, Yes! Ā I have always been proud of putting together good sounding systems for comparatively low $$$. I have rarely bought new equipment, kept current thru the audio press, but, most importantly, as a musician I know what instruments and singers sound like live. That has always been my benchmark.Ā 

I will admit that my current system has cost more than most people would spend. But not too much more. I couldnā€™t afford this rig new. Musicians Iā€™ve had in to hear it - jaws drop.Ā 

I do like to hear other ā€œfellow travelersā€™ā€ systems. Ā Many are stunning. In the end, my ears are happy. Ā Itā€™s fun to tweak the room and speaker positioning to find that little bit more. Ā Canā€™t do the ā€œFull Mahgisterā€ šŸ˜‰ but still interesting.Ā
