AV Rant


Anyone ever listen to this podcast? It seems to be the anti-audiophile podcast. I love audio. I want the best sound possible. I want to believe I can get the Absolute Sound. I've heard amazing systems, though I don't own one myself. But I don't want to throw away money trying to achieve it. The search continues...

Any AV Rant believers in here?

I'm an audiophile. I listen to music many hours every day. I love the equipment. Love the music. But it's good to hear differing opinions to keep from getting too far off the path.

I disagree with much of what's in the AVRant. But I found one episode enlightening. One of them commented that the greatest audio experience of their life was with an audiophile system and electrostatic speakers. He went on to complain that if he moved 1' in any direction, the experience collapsed.

But for me... I listen alone, positioned in the sweet spot. I'd rather have the best sound with this compromise, than a lesser sound and more dispersion.

Anyway...I think it's worth a listen.
