What in the world is going on.....


My system cost about 75000 dollars or so.  I got the rave review LP of the new Paul Simon album.....sounded pretty lousy.  I listened to the included M3P download using AirPlay through my Denon receiver and Senheisser wireless earphones, and it sounded wonderful......   What in the world is that all about....

Tonyk,
Sorry to see your post removed. Audiogon sometimes is not reasonable when it comes to 'cleaning'.

I know you didn't mean to be rude pal.

Well, bad recording will of course sound bad on anything but it will still sound better with better equipment. You are talking nonsense.


Maybe I didn't say that correctly then,,IMO if you take a poorly mastered cd and play it through a very expensive,very detailed system it will sound horrible..same cd played through a less revealing(more often a more musical one) system and to me the music presents itself better..Ive heard modest setups that blow away these high dollar, state of the art,no compromise ones...my modest setup to me is way more enjoyable than the big dollar one I had ...plus I have more money to buy music and that's always a good thing in my book.

Thanks for your opinion. Opinions are like (well, you know) and everyone has one. You’re entitled to yours. Thanks for showing it to us.

P.S. Check page 1 and 2 of this thread and you can read what I said. It hasn’t been deleted! There’s no reason why it would be.
@missioncoonery - what is your current system & what was your 'big dollar' system?
