What I wish I knew before starting my audiophile journey

What I wish I knew before starting my audiophile journey
@limbonner You’re probably aware that some precious metals like gold and silver have the propensity of purifying water - fact. In a similar way, the audio cables/interconnects effectively clean the electrical power coming to your house. All of the... 
What I wish I knew before starting my audiophile journey
@1971gto455ho If you really spent years in and out of studios, you should at least have learned that the most desirable studio equipment such as: microphones, speakers, reel to reels and others are vintage. No one cares for the new studio crap mad... 
What I wish I knew before starting my audiophile journey
Rule#1:  Stay away from dealers - dealers want your money and they't your friends.  In addition, even if you buy from a reputable dealer, you will loose half of the value of your purchase in the blink of the eye.  Rule#2: Buy only the best used e... 
Buyer anxiety
As longer the transaction on Paypal is for merchandise purchase and not   designated to friends or family, you should be fine. Simple call to Paypal will clear the confusion.   
What is your take on high efficient speakers vs. low efficient speakers?
@Mrdecible Mrd. Does that means that the audio speakers/systems are equally great just because we like them, and how do you extrapolate the fact that some audiophiles have exponentially longer experience? Some have learned from casual listening he... 
What is your take on high efficient speakers vs. low efficient speakers?
@Johnk. My apologies Johnk - I misconstrued your answer.  We both agree that high efficient speakers are more dynamic.  
What is your take on high efficient speakers vs. low efficient speakers?
@smoothtech  If the loudspeaker has a different nominal impedance than the volts needed to achieve a watt also changes. Some manufacturers calibrate their one watt to the different impedances. Other manufacturers stick with 2.83 volts regardless ...

@simna  With 12w and 95dp  speakers and only 190 sq. ft. room you can most probably  brake your windows in the house.

@bache Cool down!? You’re the one using derogative names and I’m suppose to cool down. What is wrong with you? Stop deflecting and projecting your arrogant attitude to others and stop waisting my time, please. No mater what I do or say, you’d nev...

@bache You don’t give up easily, do you? https://www.hilberink.nl/codehans/tannoy4.htm Would be nice if you respond back by saying - Thank you.      
What is your take on high efficient speakers vs. low efficient speakers?
  @bache With the right speaker enclosure, Tannoy dual concentric 15" speakers and many other efficient speakers extend down to below 30 hz. Not to mention that 90 percent of the music is in the midrange frequency. Who is stupid now? I didn’t wan... 
For those of you who had spent over hundred thousand dollars for your sound system.
@nonoise  You'r one cleaver SG.  For some reason, I  like your short sentence. Thank you.   
What is your take on high efficient speakers vs. low efficient speakers?
