Onhwy61, are you serious or being sarcastic? I don't think your system is catching the chicks, it has to be your magnetism & good looks.
what is the purpose of a stereo system ?
yes this is a philosophical question. i think it is the basis for many disagreements as to what is good sound and is a useful issue to discuss.
here are 6 categories for identifying the purpose of a stereo system:
1)as a window on the source--neutrality (truth)
2)to recreate the sound of music--musicality (beauty)
3)to statisfy one's sonic preferences--idiosyncratic
4)as a status symbol to impress other people--non sonic (psychological)
5)to create a salutary affect, such as lowering blood pressure, relaxation, stimulation etc.--non sonic (physiological)
6)as a catalyst to enhancing another activity--background
some of the disagreements as to component preferences or the sound of stereo systems may result from differing ideas as to what a stereo system should do.
a stereo system which puts one to sleep--a salutary affect may be considered poor quality when viewed as a conveyor of what's on a recording.
i hope this helps to view componets ind stereo systems ina different perspective.
