How important is it for you to attain a holographic image?

There are real holographic soundstages but most are more of a “projected soundstage” - the real soundstage’s phoney sibling - that is not the same thing as a transparent, well-organized and realistic soundstage.

Orpheus10,

What you really meant to say is that you “revel in their ignorance” from your point of view.

I think most folks have not actually heard a system with a potential to reproduce ’real’ holographic soundstage, just as I think there are dammed few recordings which contain the necessary information to produce one.

orpheus10,

"let me explain; audio holography is quite similar to visual holography, and the better the lens and camera the better the photograph."

As with your comments on audio holography it is hard to argue the basic premise of your statement, however I would suggest that, as in photography, the experience of the audiophile is far more relevant than the quality of the equipment. Nothing is funnier than a ’photographer’ with his Nikon and a bag full of lenses who doesn’t know more about his hobby than how to take snap shots of his kids (if that).

Just as some might revel in his.....:-)   Witness his own posts.

I guess people with opinions can be considered ignorant on this forum.
