REAL MUSIC VS. SHOW MUSIC PERFORMANCE AT AUDIO SHOWS. PRESENTATION V. PERFORMANCE? WHY?


One of the things that I have noticed is the kind of music being played to show system performance.  Full disclosure I’m with Infigo Audio. But as an audiophile I think it is important to hear your music in these systems.  Which means non hi rez stuff.  Stuff you would listen to in your system at home. I try to play everything at shows to show our performance.  Some systems to me are all presentation not as much performance. I play funk rock pop classical jazz folk R&B as well as test track to show what a system can do across a genres.  I think it is important to show that a system can perform on all materials. Some systems look good in presentation and sound great on hi rez and test tracks but are not musical involving and may not actually perform well across genres. Thoughts ?

Any true audiophile has multi pairs of speakers...No one set of speakers is the BEST for all the different types of music and types of recordings.....Anyway , it’s fun to switch out different speakers , depending on what you are listening to.......My most listened to speakers are Borresen X-3’s....Tekton Pendragons....Klipsch Heresy IV’s......JBL Studio 590’s....Quad L-21’s in that order......Have more fun....Own lots of speakers.....How can you be a true audiophile and own only one pair of Speakers...
