Best System for Pink Floyd



Someone who I never expected might listen to Pink Floyd was praising Dark Side of the Moon recently.

It made me realize that I have been listening to it for over 30 years now, and I still get something out of it every time, and also trust and rely on Pink Floyd to test the resoltuion and imaging of my audio components.

Which made me wonder:

Imagine if the only music you would ever listen to again was Pink Floyd, what components and in particular, what speakers would you suggest?

It would be fascinating to hear how you like to listen to Pink Floyd, as well as an interesting litmus test for capable and dynamic systems.

i would agree that headphones are, by nature, immersive and 'other-worldly'. Pink Floyd music is most definitely not meant to be 'conventional....and does compliment the headphone perspective on music. some of the 'stuff' Pink Floyd puts into the mix can be much more easily percieved on good headphones than on a typical high end system.

OTOH my 'conventional' system excells at doing space. my sources are particularly high resolution. i feel that i get the best parts of what a headphone can do in my system plus the best attributes of a conventional full range system. but....the combination is a hard one to pull off and not cheap. headphones, for Pink Floyd music in particular, get you lots of the picture with much less effort and dollars.

Tvad, Im sorry if I missunderstand, I might interpret "immersive" differently, stimulation for a number of senses?
But for me the headphone is always 2 dimensional compared to my speakers, even though I own some very nice headphones. There good if no one else wants to listen to the music though.
