Synergy is a ghost and you will never know if you're there. My first high end amp was a new Audio Research design with matching preamp. After a couple of years I upgraded the pre to an Aesthetix Calypso. Huge improvement in SQ. One would have thought AR components would have the best "synergy"? I have never seen a dealer who carries all the components I want to evaluate. Their experience is limited to the brands they carry. They want to make a sale.
Did your system getting better the more money you spent or more experience you gained?
This is something that wanted to ask folks. Initially I said I would never spend x amount of dollars in this audio journey. 20 years later I’m here and did what I said I wouldn’t but I’m happier than ever. Best system to this date. But it wasn’t about money only. I gained knowledge on what was possible and the quality and design of the gear I wanted. I see people just throw money into audio and never be happy or satisfied. I think that happens because they don’t think for themselves as well as have the resources? Thoughts ?

@frankmc195 +1 The industry is designed to keep us always searching for more. Then it makes it extremely difficult to get there (inefficient market with imperfect access to information). |
