What do your hard-earned dollars go toward?


After finding the "perfect" system within your budget, how do you then tweak it for maximum performance?

1. Mechanical isolation e.g., racks and footers

2. Electrical isolation e.g., power conditioners, power supplies and dedicated lines

3. Acoustic isolation e.g., room treatment

4. My system is just fine out of the box and I would rather spend money on more music

5. Other

Books and music.

This cost me a fortune...

All my life...

Most people dont need books...

Books cost way more than audio if you dont read novels...

 Nowadays a very well optimized low cost system can be very satisfying...

I dont invested money in audio, i experimented in acoustics once  at peanuts...

With success...

Nowadays with free DSP in Foobar or in better hardware  and low cost small  speakers and a well optimized room,minimal audiophile experience cost almost nothing...

Bread and meat cost way more ...cool

And tomorrow you will not speak about audio but about bread and meat...( i spoke for the average dude here)

How many jobs will disappear?

How many wars will be started before  some idiots realized it is useless?

Audio problems today are simple to solve and cost nothing ...

But we need to understand basic acoustics to do so...

What matter is not the brand or so much  the price but acoustics and the electrical grid...

 

 

Wisdom is nothing without love and generosity...

You have both and more humor than me ...

I can only say i was lucky to accept your first mate...

my best to you... As always and forever...

@mahgister ,

Tu es sage, mon ami...

 

I gave all my money to my wife.

She kept it for me and the children.

If not, i would have no house only books and cd, and no wife either...smiley

 

The wife!
