Well I obviously don't agree :D. Anyway they are the ones designing audio gear and developing new technologies for it, so their collective opinion is pretty important. If you think there's something missing from the approach, they're the ones you'll have to convince to change it. That's why I think it's a bad idea when audiophiles obsess over what I believe are irrelevant details, like differences between DACs, when there are huge glaring problems like room acoustics, speaker distortion, and dynamic compression of recordings to deal with. The boy who cried wolf. magiccarpetride;582367 Wrote: > If you fall in love, is there anything measurable about it?

That ought to be able to happen regardless of what kind of system you're listening to. If you can only enjoy music on some super-audiophile grade vinyl rig, you've got a big problem. In the right moment, an old staticy radio can sound magical... -- opaqueice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ opaqueice's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4234 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82520 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
