And this philosophical endeavor is a great way to escape the reality of good and bad.
Is there any bad sounding high-end gear--?
I was reading the thread here today about biased reviewers-
it got me thinking, out of the stuff which is reviewed in the publications which serve the high-end arena, is there really any bad sounding gear?----I am talking about from what I call the golden era of High-end, 1990---2000, stuff from the major players like ARC, CJ, Krell, MLevinson, Jadis---etc-----I use this time frame as this was the pre-Chinese era when most gear was from the US, we also saw stuff from Italy, France and Swiss made stuff.
When I have purchased something and not liked it, I always struck it up to a system mismatch----
If anyone can provide what they bought and really thought it was terrible, I'd be interested to know what it was.
