Because I have never owned any very high end gear I’m wondering if an $8000 integrated amp will sound jaw dropping better than a $5000 one? Right now my system is Parasound JC2 and SMC Audio DNA1 Gold.
Well that's why I asked. Great responses. You know my system may be the best I have heard. Doing the room does make the most sense. It's the how that's the unknown. Who is another question.
Probably because buying gear is easy. Room treatment in a science. Gotta find the right folks to do it. How do you find that right person? In a big city it might be easier. Who knows when a room is "right"? Some yahoo might come in and screw it all up. It's pretty easy to slap up some panels and stuff. My cousin has treated his room with fake Christmas trees! He must have 15 or 20 in there. Seems to work pretty good. Just weird. Any ideas?
Well I've been searching YouTube about room treatment. Just go there and check it out. That's the reason most people don't do it right. It is so complicated.
There is a GS-150 for sale 2 hours from here. $8,000. I wish I had the guts to get it. Concerned about buying something used for that kind of money. A whole set of tubes cost at least $1,000.
