Qualities Of An End-game System


Qualities of an end game system: 

- Speakers disappear

- The room disappears

-  The listener disappears, his mind is shut down/gone.

- There is nothing left but the perception of falling into an abyss filled with music. 

- The listener doesn't know where any of the music came from, but, it is all inside of him. Sex, drugs, etc can't come even remotely close to such an experience of pure audio nirvana.

 

If your system can't do that (whatever it may be), you have no end game.

@calvinj  , with certain discs (in my system mostly SACDs) I can get that.  But I am assuming from most of the content of this thread that the OP considers "end game" to be beyond that.

For many myself included, it is not the qualities, but the lack of quantity in the cash department that will dictate what is our endgame system. Oh I could spend more and do have cash resources I could tap into, however I am not willing to. More golf to be played and hunting and fishing trips to be made. 

@ericgale sometimes. You have to just listen and enjoy.  My main system is done. I’m just searching for more music at this point.

I'd go along with that.  I'd like some different/better speakers.  And I guess I'd also like to try the SET route. But I may be done.  Until I am not done.
