I am 49 with older brothers. We grew up in the peak of the Bose era. We all had at least a couple models. This is where I feel my brother is confused.
He had a system many years ago while living in a cinder block room with a Carver receiver and some monitor speakers. He had no rug nor any treatment whatsoever.
He has been in my house a few times and while my space is a bit unorthodox, it does have a nice soundstage with well defined vocals, instruments and somewhat of 3 dimensionality.
All he had to say is that it sounds good but it isn't anything like his old system. He could hear sounds coming from all over the room. I tried to explain.....that isn't reaallllly what you want. I had to just let it go.
