Synergy


Hi.

I hear a lot of talk about synergy. Most agree that it is an important piece of the puzzle. I would think the greatest synergy would come from using all the same brand as they were most certainly designed for each other. If this is the case, why is it that 99% of the systems here on Audiogon are not entirely one brand(excluding speakers in most cases)?

place 11 audiophiles in a room and you will get 12 opinions. synergy is somewhat ephemeral in that what is ysnergistic for one may not be for another.

the question is production or reproduction ? a hobbyist will make a choice as to pleasing him/herself or trying to minimize inaccuracy.

if one likes the sound of a stereo system than one says synergy is present. since there maybe subjective disagreement as to the presence or absence of synergy, it may be more useful to use preference in lieu of synergy.
