is there a filter available so i can read and learn something new on these forums (which i value highly overall) and DUMP
all of the personal stuff in the trash? stereophile and
the abs.sound is hit and miss, mostly miss. so, when i ask someone what they REALLY THINK without introducing any monetary motives, i don't think that's asking too much. i have a system which i like alot, even though it errs on the side of richness instead of accuracy, and i would like to hear something that is significantly better SOUNDWISE. and, i like to upgrade once in a while, but i don't have a box full of $100 bills just sitting around for that purpose. so when someone has a speaker that costs over $30,000 i have to wonder- 1.did he/she get it to move a lot of air or do they have a very large room, OR 2.does the product have a certain finesse that you can't get for $10k-$20k. i have some well-founded doubts about #2. for example, wilson audio says that compared to the $125k alexandria, everything else sounds "BROKEN". indeed! as far as i'm concerned, they simply lack the engineering expertise to build a speaker for $30k or less that offers the (best they know how to make) accuracy and musicality in a normal (15x20 or 12x18) room. and that example goes for any number of companies out there. is $75k really necessary to get all the info off a vinyl record, or can a smart designer do it
for $10k? does a preamp have to come in three boxes to reduce noise, or can you do it in one box with partitions made of special materials? in other words, tell it to me like it is, let me hear it, and then i'll buy it. or at least i'll try to save up for it...! oh, as for the dartzeel amplifier- i'd love to HEAR it one day- but, is it as good as my DK ?!....(no, i don't have the freaking dk)...
