AUDIO PRICE INSANITY PRICE VS. PERFORMANCE WORTH IT?


What do you y’all think? I have 30k into my system and I recently attended AXPONA 2018. I compared what I heard to what I have. I felt my system compared to the 80 to 100k systems quite well. Matching is important. Also your reference point. Any thoughts yall?

To each his own.  My experiences have led me to the system I have now and it’s worked for me. I listen to live music. I’ve tuned my system to my liking and I have added what I need to get it just right for my ear.  Enjoy the music not the process.
It’s been dubbed a hobby, right? 

Make your sound what what you want it to be, read, meet and discuss options. 

In the end Mick Jagger, nor anyone else for that matter cares other then the Audiophile Hobbyist, yeah?
I hear all these opinions. You can get good sound out of lower priced systems. But If you put the right more expensive gear in the best position to to succeed most of the time. You can get tomthat next level. Better transparency, seperation, detail and imaging. If you use it properly it can really be a treat.
