Pinkus , It's really quite simple....
Usually what I do is bring along recorded music that I enjoy the most and music that I am most familiar with.
Knowing what this recorded music sounds like in my home, I use my memory of it as a bench mark.
Currently I am shopping for a new pair of speakers, so far in the past three weeks I have listened to nine contenders, most at the top end of my budget.
Two of the nine pairs that I have listened to will be crated up and delivered to my home for further listening.
The pair of speakers I mentioned above is one of them, and they sell for less then half of what my budget is.
This could very well be a classic case of ,you get what you pay for , but not always.
As for the Ayre equipment in that system,I give it high marks for musicality.
