Yes, seriously. I have no idea about what system you have or how resolving it is. That is not my point. On many of the systems I’ve put together, I can get it to sound absolutely stunning using some very high-quality recordings and the right tune-up.
@russ69
What was tuned up? How was that done?
Are these systems super bright? Or what does resolving mean here?
Absolutely knock your socks off. But set up that way 99% of my music sounds like crap. That is not the right direction. You do what you can do to get 90% of the music you listen to sound good. A hot demo set-up only has limited function.
I have not set up systems like you describe, and it sounds like you have a lot more experience.
I usually put on a handful of recordings that I am familiar with, and they all either seem to sound great or they all seem to suck… I do not find that some sound much better, and some sound much worse.
Hence; I am wondering what is being done to get such a result.
(If nothing else I would likely want to avoid that.)
