I want to be moved and have the music touch my soul!


Hello all.
To start here's my system:  Harbeth Compact 7es-3 speakers with DIY 10" subs. JL Audio CR-1 crossover. Rotel RB 981 power amp for the subs. Ayre KX5mp pre amp. SMC Audio DNA1 Gold power amp. Cardas reference neutral interconnects. Kimber 8Tc speaker cables. Oppo BD105 player. 

The system sounds great but it does not move me. I want the music to touch touch my soul. I have been through many different speakers in the past 4 years but I like the Harbeths the most. I feel bored when I'm listening. I'm not sure what to do other than spend more money. Any help?
Thanks in advance.

Drink alcohol. There is a shop that I went to that has a $500,000 system on display. It sounds great, but it doesn't sound $475,000 better than my system. Instead of constantly tossing thousands into your system, fill your house with SONOS and have sound everywhere. Take a road trip across America. Get off the Interstates. Drink alcohol.
Try Bette Middler, Wind beneath my wings, if that doesn’t work it must be your system
i have the new Rega Brio integrated and RS1 speakers. using a NAD D1050. works for me. not the most resolving but very musical.  use to spend thousands on gear, but now just enjoy the music and not the system.
And try some Yello
if they don’t move you, you or your system or both of you need a new heart 💜
