High End System Building. How important is the matching, cabling and room? Thoughts ?
@jayctoy i now work for Infigo Audio. It has allowed me to get some really great gear that had been out of my reach. I’m enjoying my method 4 dac and method 6 stereo amplifier. My cables were made for these electronics so my system synergy is off ...

@jayctoy i spent a number of years in this hobby. I didn’t always have money to afford the higher end stuff. I learned through long demos that I would get when I did collections for a cable company. He had access to some great gear and allowed me ...

@maghister you are right the sound has to go to the listener.  Speaker positioning is important. Placement if done right in a tough room means everything.

@mahgister my only point to you on any of this is the use of silver with my tweeter.  The rest is referring to that other guy who is always rude on my posts.

@jjss49 sometimes you get the right speaker that fits the crap room. Lol 😂 if you can demo before you buy. That’s the best way.  But there are ways to get there without the perfect room

@jastralfu I I have a crap room but I have great sound that fits my tastes.  Try to demo in home if you move from a component or even a cable.  That’s my advice. I been blessed to have long demos of high end stuff along my journey. Some dealers ar...

@jastralfu this is exactly what I’m talking about I own a condo. Can’t change the room.  My system can never be dead center. My speakers are 7-8 feet apart max. Vaulted ceilings. Hardwood floor window to the left. I put a nice carpet down to limit...

@mahgister as far as cabling is concerned. Pure silver works in your system. I have a ring radiator tweeter in my speaker. Pure silver using that tweeter in my experience doesn’t work well. Every little thing matters. In a folding tweeter silver w...

@mihorn im good once I get it dialed in a little I’m ready to roll. I’m pretty happy all I got to do is position my speakers have my guy integrate the subs when I get my regular gear back and I’m happy. Very happy. Enjoy your system. Looks cozy
