Jay's Audio Lab Visits GR Research's Listening Room


I have been saying this a while....If you can DIY a kit, have a tall ceiling and only have 5000 dollars, you could end up with some top tier sound with the GR NX-treme model.

I believe another youtuber/BACCH dealer, Audiophile Junkie, uses the NX-treme as his daily driver still. I am fairly certain he can afford some very expensive speakers, but, he just seems to be hanging on to the GR tall tower..

You never know, i suppose....Some of you may not end up liking the sound of some expensive item, you may very well prefer the sound of something cheaper, even if you can afford very expensive things.

It seemed to me that Jay was polite but not blown away. The expectation of such a large, grand system could be a tall order (no pun intended). The music selection on the video didn't seem to match the dynamic capability. Not exciting music.

If the listening level is around 75 to 80 db you don't need this many speakers to get there. It's way over kill imo.

You can get an excellent DIY system for MUCH less money that plays plenty loud without looking like overpowering skyskrapers and probably sounds better being played at volume matched to the room size.
