Interesting article by Robert Harley in this months Absolute
Sound that parallels the first posters experiences. Not quite to the same extent but certainly along the same lines and focusing on the having ones system accessible to have everyone listen to it. Bringing music back into the living room like it used to be. Simply listening to the music.
It certainly doesn't need to be an A/V system though!
The idea that a high quality system can be out and enjoyed by everyone is a HUGE step in the right direction for Audio
and High End Audio in particular. The thought that it is for music enjoyment for entertaining, family, laying around reading, etc makes the proposition of having a quality music system very appealing to many "normal" people and one that shuld be beaten like a drum from coast to coast in every lifestyle magazine, every blog about style, every new
story about family living and what makes a home tick...etc, etc.
This is the direction of High Fidelity Audio. Not tweaks, not the "man cave", not the exclusionary nature that so many feel, not the crazy flavor of the month chase. A high quality music system for the home. Why? Because music matters. Simple as that.
