Changing audio beliefs
Are there any audio beliefs you once held to firmly that you no longer subscribe to?

These days I enjoy hearing most all recordings in any genre for what they are. Musical discovery! Used to be I was way more strongly biased towards “audiophile” recordings and fewer genres. These days I still am biased towards high quality recordings to some extent but mostly with just classical music.

Current beliefs - and since I started with this hobby just more than a year ago. Once decided on the electronic components (amp/pre-amp/DAC), I stayed within the specific ecosystem. All components and interconnects including speaker cables, provided by the same manufacturer or cables recommended. The front end components - streamer and turntable - are the only variables for upgrade in the future. |
