How competitive are you with your system?

Op nice thread. I only like to listen to other system to see what is out there and learn . At axpona I heard an amazing system that made me feel and think Iam on the venue listening on live concert . The system is Wilson speakers and Dan Agostinos gear.set up by Quintessence. My question is can I achieved that performance in a very small way? I did try , only when I got my x1 Borensen speakers I felt I am feeling the experienced in a small way . That’s good enough for me.My friends long time ago when we listen they always say in my system it sounds like this and so on? They drove me crazy.not good to compare and compete in this hobby.

I think it’s stupid to compare or worse rank my system with anyone else. Sounds like teenager stuff. Just enjoy the music without stupid games that make one look like they are 12 years old.

OP - Interesting topic. Once a year after I come home from a HiFi show I turn on my system and smile. That’s as close as I get to competitive.

Always room to improve

no pun intended @asvjerry 

I like my system.

No interest in comparisons.
