Jay's rooms almost done - getting nervous

Nobody ever really gets satisfied, it’s all about the journey.  You figured it out and that makes you a lucky man.

My journey is learning acoustics and optimization process necessary to makes possible for any system/room at any price to reach its optimal working peak...

My journey was never about purchasing  X number of dac, Y number of  amplifier,  Z number of  speakers...

Most of my purchaset were necessary  mistakes or trials and errors  by ignorance about acoustics and  fourfold process of optimization, ignorance reinforcing the belief that sound experience come from brand name, price, or just design gear choices...

It is marketing conditioning belief... (any gear design choice will be less impactful at the end of the process than acoustics ,psychgo-acoustics parameters, DSP, mechanical and electrical synergy and optimization...

Buying is not  really learning and cannot replace it ... We must buy to start the learning process by optimizing and learning how to do it with what we have not by buying new gear ...Upgrade must stop the sooner the better once we decide to study and experiment with what we already have...

If not we are squirrel in an expansive wheel moved by ignorance...

speak for yourself, im happy as hell and satisfied with my system, I have IMO the best gear and have it dialed in really well.  does everything right IMO, the amps where the final piece of the puzzle

Holy smokes this topic is so confrontational just like Jay's channel lol. Relax everyone we are all here because we share a common interest in audio and music.  Being intellectually critical of one's room or components is fine as long as it's justifiable but insulting someone for their tastes or lack of knowledge doesn't do this forum or hobby any good.  I for one am here to learn. 

@emergingsoul , bravo on retooling Eminem’s “Stan” for the audiophile world.

It's not obsession, it's amazement. Of course being a bit neurotic is part of the obsession about audio gear. Although lately I'm tiring of all the intricacies of what goes on inside the mystery boxes and cabinets. But the appreciation still remains for those who truly understand incredibly complicated stuff.
