| What's your experience with Channel Separation? does this value even matter after say, 60 dB? That is comforting to know. When is more just a number to throw put there with no real audible value. | |
| What's the point of reviewing? how does one sort through what is available to draw salient, accurate, reliable conclusions upon which to act? Good question. As one audiophile’s wife said in exasperation "They all sound good, just pick one". And that is the saving grace of hi... | |
| Moving again...system finally complete...back to starting over Aaaww, I wanted to be the first responder. Well, then just forget it :( | |
| Magnapan LRS+ VS .7 Darn, second again. My dream is to be responder #1. You don't get 9,086 posts for nothin' | |
| What's the point of reviewing? Good question and IMHO not much other than entertainment. It’s more like advertising under the guise of "information". They just confuse the issue with insecurities and doubt. Reviews can be good to: 1) Let you know a product is out there. 2) B... | |
| Stereophile and the love of hotel decor The room is also a component. | |
| A rare opportunity (or at least I think it's rare) Sooo . . . will he be buying one? I think there would be more audiophiles if they realized they could have sound this good for a few thousand dollars. | |
| How rare is an audiophile Judging by the number of cars I hear with pretty good to excellent sound and the number of car stereo dealers. . . . plus people in Ebay who collect vintage gear, etc. . . . plus people into hi-res formats. . . . plus home theater. . . . it has sh... | |
| Advice on how to liquidate system So sorry about this. Can your hearing problem be helped by increasing volume (like hearing aid)? I would be patient and give it a year before deciding anything. Not sure if you have the same symptoms but I know someone who suffered hearing loss f... | |
| Top two most important sound qualities @kota1 Thanks for showing up. I was trying to explain your system "immersion" concept when making suggestion on how to achieve. @edgewear Even from a distance and without visual contact you simply ’know’ when they’re playing live. Well said.... | |
| Top two most important sound qualities @gladmo Thanks for that. Those were my 2 points when at my low point in hi-end audio. Currently. . . . how to describe? I like a system which lets me connect to the emotional and musical content of the song. Auditioning, I put in a song and don’... | |
| Top two most important sound qualities 1) Don't hurt my ears. 2) Fill the room with sound. | |
| Storage boxes. Can I discard high end shipping boxes, and still sell in the future? Can I discard high end shipping boxes, and still sell in the future? Yes, but you will get 10 cents on the dollar instead of 15 cents on the dollar. | |
| Why do almost all women today hate home audio? First because unlike men, something in their brain does not ’click" when it comes to enjoying music more because of the better sound quality of a hi-end stereo. They can hear it, but just don’t care. Second they aren’t into "equipment", whether c... | |
| Food: What does the typical audiophile eat? No offense but this is the most absurd question I’ve come across. Then you kick the thread off with the most boring food, bagels. You’re telling us you eat raisin bagels sometimes but always go back to plain bagels for long term enjoyment. Sweet ... |
