Very true indeed. Sometimes we need to reboot our audio systems, other times it is our brain which needs resetting. In my, over a quarter of the century long history of being audiophool, I very often found myself improving audio system only to wake up the next morning and set everything back to the original state. I try to keep the idea of the music as fresh as possible, regularly visiting local symphony and concerts. Yet, still it's very hard to obtain the same, satisfying results in my listening room. It is never ending game with countless number of changing rules. Making things worse, there is some irony here, through all of those years of "ear training", I've discover that my wive and my cat are much better listener than me in the sense of being able to formulate better, objective judgments(reactions) whether my system is capable of reproducing natural sound or not. -- gizek very good music > Transporter > Adcom GFP-750 > Citation II tube monoblocks > Proac Response D2; Cardas Neutral Reference all over ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gizek's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=34337 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=85495 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
