What was your most engaging audio experiance


I have been an audio crazy for 45 years and have had experiences where I thought I heard live music in a room when in fact it was an audio system. This experience which I call "a critical mass" experience suggests that the equipment, the room, the ambiance were all in perfect harmony to create this illusion for me.
I was in fact hearing an Mercury Living Presence solo piano LP played threw biamped Magneplanes 20.1 s powered by ARC Ref 300 monoblocks and at VT100 MKIII.
I will add that I was unaware of an audio system in the adjoining room. A fact which may have contributed to my experiance.

My most engaging audio experience I'll never forget. It was in a hi-end audio store sitting in front of their best system. Gave me the biggest rush! I was trying to duplicate that here at home for years, but came to the conclusion that what I experienced was like my first kiss, magical! It will never be duplicated, but it's lotsa fun trying.
