How good can it get, really? - my stereo sounds amazing!


I really love my stereo currently. I keep thinking I should be looking for the next piece to upgrade - phono stage, stereo subs, etc., but honestly not sure what to change or why I’d potentially spend more money to achieve a result that’s lesser or equal to my current sound quality. I sorta feel clueless as to how to proceed without screwing up what I have. I know it can get better but honestly I’m at a place when I just don’t know how it can. Hmmmmm.... not a bad problem I guess. Open to suggestions for sure. Thx.

Hello Paul. 

The room acoustics overlays and imprints your audio experience.  Some "upgrades" that a person can hear are merely an effect that penetrates the acoustic noise floor.  Some upgrades are real and you'd love them if only you could hear them, but they lie buried below the room acoustic noise floor. As I read your list of equipment I didn't see the acoustic compliment you are running.  

A good system performance experience is to download and listen to the ASC MATT test (musical articulation test tones).  https://www.acousticsciences.com/matt

Listen first over headphones, kinda boring, then listen to your system play the test track. 

The test will speak for itself.
