Music first or sound first?


I just thought it might be interesting to take a poll of those that put sound first and those that claim they put music first in listening to their rigs.

Thanks to you i bought it and it seems very interesting read...

i recommend it too ...😊

 

Original book about what our choices in music revealed about us and what are the factors that attract us toward some music...It seems stimulating read but fun too ...

 

This is What It Sounds Like by Susan Rogers and Oge Ogas

Treat yourself to the audio book and light up a different part of your brain….

For me sound was the way i like my music to be heard...

Acoustics basic and good synergetical choice of gear save me from the upgrades race...

I am totally happy because i learned how to be creative and i appreciate my system which has no relative evident defect and work at his peak potential...

Upgrade is always possible but some have a budget...😁

Anyway i dont feel my system as a stopgap at all , and i listen hundred of new music albums each month i forgot the sound which is very good anyway...

my 1000 bucks system can only be upgrade with 15,000 bucks changing my actual headphone and actual speakers with a better dac... But so good it is now i dont feel frustrated at all as i was before learning acoustics basic... I can die with what i had created myself now...

Then acoustic paradise at low cost is possible ...

Gave me 15,000 and for sure i will improve it all but music take all the place when the system /room is BALANCED between all acoustics parameters.. ...

To improve all these parameters in the same balanced ratio  will cost 15,000. But the secret you must understand is this one :  any system at any price is enjoyable as such if all acoustics parameters at play are BALANCED with one another , not one lacking or in excess...

Now we must learn how to recognise and use these acoustics parameters related to the system/room/ears ...This is why acoustics science matter ... The price tags of system will not change acoustic principles and concepts nor my journey ...
