How can anyone want more......Just a very happy listener.

I have recently listened to the best of Genesis, Dire Straits, Krall, Sinatra, Presley, Miles, Keb Mo, Floyd, Zep, Stones, and so much more, and I am so happy with my system. Why do people need to spend 40K on speakers, and, the same on amplification. Equipment : Modified Adcom GDA 700. Luminous Audio Walker passive , Nuforce STA 200, Modified Klipsch Lascalas, and powered subs ( a secret ). There is absolutely nothing, at this particular time, that I want more of. I have Dynamics, Tone, Coherence, Prat, Imaging, the whole shebang. I sit 10 ft from the speakers, and, I am so " involved " with my recordings, that I cant imagine any one not wanting the sound that I have, for relatively little money. Thoughts ? Enjoy ! MrD.

mrdecibal,

No problem.  Sorry, I was just pulling your leg a little. I'm sure you listen to a wide range, and even if you didn't it wouldn't matter - it's no one's business to tell us what we like to listen to.  (I listen to some stuff that other people would find horrendous, or cheesy).

It's good to see a satisfied audiophile though.  Pretty rare occurrence. 
Hopefully it lasts for a while :)

*G* Sounds like another case of "Ready Player One"...enhance/enhance/enhance/ad infinitum -or- until you realize that either the fascination was in the pursuit itself...or,,,perhaps, it's just You.

It's OK....we age, and the final link in the 'system' can't be enhanced or upgraded.  The carrot will continue to dangle, tempting, calling "...maybe Here...(or is it Hear...*smirk*).

"Run what you brung."  The old street-racing comment...there's Always going to be Something that's going to leave you at the light...;)

Have a good weekend,, y'all.

@mrdecibel  You question is not just about sound, is it about life.
you fall in love in you  gear, and you dont want look around.
to change you mind  you have to listen you gear with different element,most important to build the sound ---speakers, if you live close to NYC or NJ i can bring my Tribeca-001. just to compare

"How can anyone want more..."


Perhaps, better framed as ’I [mrdecibel] am HAPPY and I [mrdecibel] do not want more...’

Here’s a thought, let go of ’the’ "people want more [or] need to spend 40K." You will be happier and your system will sound even better.

Happy for you!

Listening to Dexter Gordon's Go! at 7am on a Saturday morning while the family still sleeps. I'm happy. : )
