AUDIO PRICE INSANITY PRICE VS. PERFORMANCE WORTH IT?


What do you y’all think? I have 30k into my system and I recently attended AXPONA 2018. I compared what I heard to what I have. I felt my system compared to the 80 to 100k systems quite well. Matching is important. Also your reference point. Any thoughts yall?

Fine audio, like everything else, is relative. As much as I loved my Quads, I found that they were no longer practical when I moved from a home with a large and open listening environment to a much smaller space. After auditioning many smaller speakers, that fit my budget, I found that the Gershman, Cameleons suited me quite nicely. Now back into a larger, more audio friendly space, I find myself very pleased with with my Maggie 1.7s. In my space, I I sometimes feel that I could even do well with the 3.7s, but that would cost a good deal more money and I would need more power, which would mean still more money. Sometimes, when what we have and how we have it tweaked, sounds very good (within our space and budget) we should spend more time enjoying the music and less time wondering about what might sound better......Jim
