High End System Building. How important is the matching, cabling and room? Thoughts ?
@mihorn nice sound I can hear it some through your clip. I love the system I have. I listen to a lot of instrumental jazz with a lot of dynamics. My system has to have air and space. Listening preferences play a part as well.

@mihorn some people will tell you. You can’t get optimal sound because your room is bad. Speaker placement along with matching equipment cabling etc can get you where you need to be. Each of our rooms and set ups are different. Do what works for y...

@mihorn. The system you have should also,have the sound signature you want as well. Equipment with a warmer sound signature ain’t gonna work for me regardless of set up. I like a small amount of warmth and a bit more detail. Some equipment just ca...

@jastralfu my listening room isn’t optimal so I have done a lot of work with everything else to get a great sound that I like. I can’t do much about my room.

@erik_squires but some can’t do anything about the room. You can still have great sound to me. You have to get equipment matching and cabling to help you in my opinion.  But if you can fix the room. That helps a lot.   
Is it important to long demo or own HIGH END gear to have a fair accurate view about it?
@jafant I traded that in so that I can could by the Infigo Method 4 Dac. I work with Infigo Audio. I bought the Method 4 because Hans used to work with the inventor of the Ess Sabre Dac chip and when he developed this Dac. I heard it and was amaze...

@mahgister i understand your point. But with that being said. I mean highly engineered equipment that sells at higher price points because of the alleged build quality and technology etc.

Best Used Speaker Under $4,000 w/ Respectable Lows
Look if you can get your hands on a gato fm6. Do it.  Used 4-5 grand retail 14k. It is a sister of the gamut high end stuff. It’s still my reference. I got 50k of Amos and dacs on it and it’s still shining.
