Is it live or is it?


Every concert I ever went to had a sound system consisting of horn loaded PA systems. So what are we doing spending all this cash in pursuit of feeling as if we are there when the entire chain of equipment is so different at home versus in any venue...?

I, too, listen to unamplified acoustic music but the mystery can be resolved. The horm-loaded systems are part of the music production/creation chain and their characteristics are included in the recording you buy. The home system should not have any characteristics, in the ideal, because they are part of a music reproduction/recreation chain.

Yes, and that applies to all genres, including the ones that some of us don't like. ;-)
