How competitive are you with your system?


Do you try to rank your system with others’?    
Or are you content with enjoying your rig for what it is?

@isellgoodgear Out of curiosity, what is your system? Can you post a picture of it? Describe it? Now those things will tell us nothing of how it sounds but you speak so highly of it that I’m now curious to see what type of system you have. 
 

The audio records do tell you a lot. We have already seen it on this thread how audio recordings of his system helped a member in here make adjustments to refine the sound quality of his system. To me audio recordings of my systems are a very important tool in the system development process.

Same person recorded Robert Harley’s absolute sound Reviewing Room. His mic is horrible. Usually, I don’t complain about a mic but this mic is too bad. He should listen his videos.

RH’s sounds better than I expected but I like your sounds better all day. Hey Strange--- Toddalin

Sounds to me like someone wasted $340,000.

My system is based round the unique and astonishing Audiopax amp with timbre lock.  The latter the most amazing but utterly baffling but also utter revolutionary design of the sadly departed genius Eduardo de Lima. Having mastered how to set it properly that allows me to be confident in the sound in my pretty small listening room. I also use an optical cart on my TT and for digital it’s the aforementioned EMM Labs. I recently added a 2 track 2 c reel to reel. What’s yours Carlos? 

@carlos269  I only offered the two old videos as example of what I feel is the reason why video over the web is not a good way to judge a system. In my examples, what cannot be heard, particularly in the Miles Davis track is the ability of the system to portray depth and also air. While my current system is far superior in all ways to the older versions, I know that the increase in depth portrayal, resolution ( which I greatly worked on) and soundstage definition would not be able to be picked up on a video, since it was not before. 

@isellgoodgear Ok good information. I have way to many systems and equipment to detail and list them all, but they are chronicled and described only. Just use goggle and you will find the details on my “OKTAN6”, “WAAR”, “Pinnacle”, and other of my systems.
