Anyone else prefer listening to their system more than a concert?
I know I do. It seems like most people on this forum don't feel that way. That's OK. To each his own.
For me, I like being able to control the volume. I like choosing what song I want to hear. I like not being in a crowd. I like hearing the music without any distracting sounds from others. I like the privacy. I like the convenience. I think my system sounds wonderful. I'm a happy camper.
Just my opinion. Not trying to change anyone else's mind.
Enjoy the music! Whichever way pleases you.
I know talented young musicians who can't even cut it to 2000 dollars a month (might as well pay the rent and load up on ramen noodles). They can get some cash from tours and cd sales (streaming paid them nothing). If the concert hall was empty, they'll all fizzle out soon enough and all ye old lads can be happy with your AI music, thereafter. |
I now would rather say home, as a Virginian I am a big fan of the Dave Matthews Band, but when I went to see them play, get this, the band was so loud I could not hear Dave sing, at all, the band totally drown him out. And I had really good seats too. After about a half hour of this, I left, I came to hear Dave sing, not just his band, what a disappointment, I prefer my McIntosh, where I can hear everything, thank you. |
@kobebar - that is a shame; sounds like the sound crew was not up to the job; I've been to more than a few gigs like that. Dave is from VA? I didn't know that. 2 VA bands I really like a lot are GWAR and the Dustys.... |
For me, there is nothing that beats a live concert with top notch acoustics. I'm wring this as I wait for the music to begin at the Freight and Salvage in Berkeley CA. I've not attended many gigantic venues in my lifetime. I will continue to PIck and choose live concerts. I will also continue to potentiate my in home system.
