The Making of a Jazz Audiophile...Interesting Read

Thanks for posting this interesting article.I agree with the jazz musicians. Good audio equitment allows more connection and appreciation of the beautiful music they`re able to play.The more musical emotion presented,the better the component.

Rok2id,
You can certainly develop a very good sounding system without spending huge sums of money. Everyone has their personal boundries for budget.Patience,planning and listening will get you a wonderful and enjoyable music playback system.

There`s no requirement for 33K speakers in order to connect more closely with your music collection.I know from past threads on this site you appreciate great jazz musicians as much as I do.The key is to get components that are 'natural' and true to tone,dynamics and musical flow.Higher efficiency speakers with moderate power amps(I`m partial to tube power amps) with good simple circuits is a good place to start.You need to focus on the components that convey and communicate the emotion that music has to offer(especially acoustic jazz).
