I’m going to get straight to the point. A lot of us are plug in play. We can’t do anything to the room depending on your living and family situations. If you want to spend less you can. You can improve your room using a number og @mahgister suggestions as well as many others. But at the end of the day. I been doing this a long time now. I want to get my hands of the best equipment I can afford. Some people spend on luxury cars. I like Audio and I’m going to use what I learned to seek out the best equipment, synergy and cabling possible. I will build my system on those foundations. I can’t do anything to my room. All I’m saying is that you can get great sound out of a bad room. You just got to pick the right things to get you there. My system will sound good almost anywhere you would probably put it. Do what makes you happy. If you don’t like spending on high end stuff then don’t. But based on what I’m experiences in my home environment I’m extremely happy with my set up. I will keep doing me. There is nothing like well designed gear that eliminates noise and distortions and is still musical. My journey has placed me at the point I’m at and I’m happy. I’m listening to some beautiful Ahmad Jamal as we speak. The piano sounds amazing!
High End System Building. How important is the matching, cabling and room? Thoughts ?
The last 20 years as an audiophile and now a dealer has taught me a very important lesson. Everything matters. The equipment can be great but no matter how much you spend the matching is very important. The cabling is also important. Some think cabling is all about making it sound better. I prefer my cabling to not get in the way. It’s like it can’t be a clogged faucet for your sound. Materials and shielding are very important. In addition to that the room is very important. You may not have a perfect room but you build your system to work in the room you have. I don’t have all the answers but you can’t just spend money and have a great system. Combination of equipment, cabling and room has gotten me there. I’ve tried a lot of gear and cables and this is how I feel. What are your thoughts everyone?
