Oh... And for those who have to face the Wife Acceptance Factor, my problem is on two fronts ! Factor #1... Shes a spend-thrift ! So anything I buy has to be purchased with, ahem... discretion ! Factor #2... She's an interior designer ! So if it doesn't fit the decor (within reason) it's a non-starter ! When we moved to our retirement home ~2-years ago, we really had to down-size so my listening room went from a 15 X 18 room to a 10 X 12 listening space. I let her have full run of the house in decorating/colors, etc., however, in my listening space, I reserved the right to set-up/ use what I need to improve the listening. She agreed. The only reason that I am able to get my final set of speakers is that it's a retirement present that I'm giving to myself ! Good Luck to all of you out there who have similar challenges when upgrading !
For those of you who had spent over hundred thousand dollars for your sound system.
Do you think, in retrospect, that you could have gotten better sound quality out of your sound system with much less money spend. Do you have any regrets for spending huge amount of $$$? If you can start all over again, what would be different this time around? Let’s talk about electronics only and not room improvement for now. I know they go together, but the subject becomes very broad - assume your room is near perfect for sound reproduction.
P.S. Mike Levine, please don't shy away from the subject.
