I would venture to say that every system out there where the owner thinks he has matched the components perfectly, there is a similarly priced piece that said owner would like even more. So has he really matched them perfectly? Of course he has , until he finds something he likes more. The answer to this question is , in my opinion, you audition if you can, buy and resell if you can’t , until you’re happy, rightly or wrongly, with what you’ve come up with. The idea that there exists , the ability to make an app for this process, or that anyone can tell with certainty what anyone else should have, is bordering on preposterous.
Speakers and amplifiers show audiophiles are confused.
An audiophile buys a pair of speakers for $50K or $100K then asks what amps make them sound best. That’s about as smart as marrying a girl without knowing her personality. What are the specs that will insure your expensive new speakers and amps will work optimality with each other? There’s got to be an app for that, well no there isn’t because there are too many variables and companies don’t present their specs in a standard ways. Why is it that speaker and amplifier manufactures don’t recommend specific amps for their speakers? Beyond power, impedance, and making your own crossovers how do you choose amplifiers to get all the potential out of your speakers?
