Perhaps my opinion on a listening experience is completely different than most but I don't think earbuds even approach the acoustical realism of live music like speakers are capable of delivering. Earbuds immerse you in sound and some may absolutely love that but to me that's not the way you hear music live when it's played on a stage in front of you. I seek the acoustical realism of a live stage and others want to be immersed 360 degrees. Neither is the "correct" answer....it's whatever pleases you.
Cannot find perfect sound
I've been listening to supposedly some of the finest speakers that currently exist. These include b&w 800 Series, revel high end, vivid audio, Psi audio and kef blades.
None except the kef blades satisfied my high level standards.
When I play my reference tracks on cheap earbuds I hear timing accuracy that is missing on all the above speakers. Only the kef blades came closest to what I hear from cheap earbuds.
Explanations please?
I really suspect that none of these high end speakers are accurately reproducing the sound on my CDs despite all the marketing claims about accuracy and high quality sound.
What could there possibly be that my cheap earbuds can do that eludes these super high end speakers?
I'm not so eager anymore to spend any money until I have a good explanation.
