Can a system sound too Holographic?


Hi friends :)

So I got a question for those interested. For me, having a 2 channel system with a Holographic soundstage is very desirable.

I bring this up because I had lent some Centerstage 2 footers ( isolation devices) to a friend to try out. To make a long story short, he likes what they are doing under his Lumin T3, however he mentioned that it might be "Too Holographic". I don't know about you guys and gals, but that wouldn't really be a problem for me. Your thoughts or experiences please. Anyone experience a soundstage that was too Holographic?

Once again, I think that there is a gross misunderstanding by several here about the meaning of holographic.

I was tempted to say as much earlier but skipped it. Too many here think "holographic" is a proper soundstage with nothing amiss. That's not what holographic is. 

Imagine a room filing recreation right up to your position with solid, stable images placed around the soundstage that if you were to close your eyes, it would seem as if they were actually in the room, not virtually.

All the best,

Thank you! I think the main reason that I have found many of thes posts so frustrating is that I can't believe what some members think that holographic means.

For all the mbl fans out there these days they have a pair of standmounts that the magazines recently raved about for only ~ 22K. Probably all one needs in most rooms. That is a tad less than a pair of new KEF Blade metas.

 

These two are probably my top choices at present if someday I decide to go nuts and attempt a change from my current $6500 retail in 2008 Ohm F5 series 3, but neither are as adjustable to any room as the Ohm 5s so there is that limitation. Then again I don’t know of any others that are so I may be stuck forever.
