This is sort of a survey as much as anything. I am constantly amazed at what people buy, and why they do so. I'll frame this in this regard by asking several questions: What speakers do you currently own--Brand, Model, and any refinements/mods?
Grading on a scale of one TO 10,(10 being "I'm in love" one being, OMG this is really a shit speaker!) rate them.
If you're looking, what do you WANT to achieve?
What music do you favor?
What's missing from ALL your speakers you've owned?
How old are you?
Name all speakers you've owned...and rate THEM TOO! 1/10
How many hours a day/week/do you listen?
Do you take off your glasses when you listen; close your eyes?
Last time you got goose bumps: music, performer, why!
This will tell us a lot about our people on Audiogon...and LADIES, if you're out there, don't think that every man on Audiogon won't be thrilled and pleased to hear what gives you girls goosebumps!
Why not anwer Tpreaves, what, do you own something really mundane like the Tyler Loudspeakers? I too would be ashamed...oh no, you really do! Sorry, I wouldn't have embarrassed you had I known!
Larry PS Go to Audio Asylum, they're limited intelligence, you'll love it there, feel more grounded.
"All that being said I will be the first to say it is all about system synergy. Not just speakers or a recording in my opinion." Xtil6, that was a 'good to really good' response to a sincere question.
System synergy IS the answer...seriously mediocre speakers can be pretty magic when mated with 'really good and complementary components'....
THANK YOU INTELLIGENT RESPONDER, I GIVE YOU A 7.6 on the respondent score card....
