Having run into the "this disc sounds like crap so i will no longer listen to it" syndrome some time ago, i've learned to try and strike a balance between a system that is "revealing" yet still "musical". Out of all of the things i've tried to do in life, this has been a great challenge. It seems that most pieces lean one way or the other and finding the right blend can be very tough. When you can find that blend though, it almost seems like "magic". You are transported into the music and you forget all about the gear making this type of enjoyment possible. To me, THAT is what it is all about. Sean
