In your opinion, what is Hi, Medium and Low end?

Digital is harder to "do right" but when you hear it "right" you will be pleased. Still, analog is the reference, so you're starting in the right place. If you insist that you digital equal your analog, then you'll be getting good sound everywhere.

GoGirl,

The only advice is to enjoy the music regardless and don't let the technical details or worries about what you might be missing drag you down. You are young and have plenty of time to achieve your ideals. Take it slow and easy and enjoy the ride!

Jax2,I should have been clearer in my last post.This is all about 12 years ago.My dad told me that wanted me to leave the room because of all the cigarette smoke.In later years he did admit that do to my inquisitive nature,I would always be asking questions about the Artist and disturbed the other listeners.
Now this brings me to Zigonht's post.Being you have made zero contributions to this forum,why complain.
I will try to get you involved.
Zigonht I looked at your system what END would you say your at?

back to the original question, here's my poor attempt at defining hi, medium and low end:

Low end: does what it does poorly

mid fi: does what it does well

hi end: does everything very well but still no two setups sound the same...still subject to personal tastes and biases regarding what sounds "best"

No complaints, just an amusing post so far.
Seriously though I go back to AlbertPorter and Chadnliz post. I agree with both of their statements. In addition I believe the low,mid,high designation pertains mostly to the individuals perception of his or her own system and the sound they are trying to get. You can ask 15 different people what designation they would tag a certain "system" and get 15 different responses. Is a $5000 system hifi? To some yes.. Is a $30,000 system hifi? Again maybe to some, but not to all.

Getting back to Gogirls question-"What end would I say I'm at?" To myself I think I put together the best system I could(after research, opinions from here and of coarse the very important factor my budget. The equiptment based on the price factor of judging I would put in mid-fi..The satisfaction I get when I watch a movie with my family and see the expressions on my childrens faces(5,5 and 7ys) during scenes of a Pixar film, then I put it right up there in the hifi category of the big boys....Again just my individual opinion of my own system..

I think that for what the purpose my system was set up for. I am getting the best return on investment given my budget when I set it up. (Its a dedicated room which also had to be built that had to be taken into account especially by my wife:))
