Compelling is the unearthing of sonic memories that elicited strong emotional responses. It does take time to identify such a system. Ask the salesman at the shop with the best systems. He will tell you what he listens to when the customers are gone. This is likely the path to nirvana. It was for me.
What makes a system compelling?
I have experienced some systems that on face value have detail, and dynamics, and great bass, etc. etc., yet are just plain boring to listen to. What are the qualities that keep you planted in the sweet spot pulling out one disc after another. Can this be identified during demos, or does it take time, living with a system to see if it works?
