How can anyone want more......Just a very happy listener.

I have recently listened to the best of Genesis, Dire Straits, Krall, Sinatra, Presley, Miles, Keb Mo, Floyd, Zep, Stones, and so much more, and I am so happy with my system. Why do people need to spend 40K on speakers, and, the same on amplification. Equipment : Modified Adcom GDA 700. Luminous Audio Walker passive , Nuforce STA 200, Modified Klipsch Lascalas, and powered subs ( a secret ). There is absolutely nothing, at this particular time, that I want more of. I have Dynamics, Tone, Coherence, Prat, Imaging, the whole shebang. I sit 10 ft from the speakers, and, I am so " involved " with my recordings, that I cant imagine any one not wanting the sound that I have, for relatively little money. Thoughts ? Enjoy ! MrD.

"How can anyone want more..."


Perhaps, better framed as ’I [mrdecibel] am HAPPY and I [mrdecibel] do not want more...’

Here’s a thought, let go of ’the’ "people want more [or] need to spend 40K." You will be happier and your system will sound even better.

Happy for you!

Listening to Dexter Gordon's Go! at 7am on a Saturday morning while the family still sleeps. I'm happy. : )

A simple question deserves a simple answer.  You don't know until you hear the differences for yourself and then you have to decide if the differences that you heard are worth whatever that cost may be.

Happy Listening.

It’s all relative. If you’re worth 10m and spend 100k on a system it’s the same as a guy who makes 100k and spends 1k on a system. If you have it, go experiment with the Uber expensive stuff. I’ve heard some crazy expensive stuff and it was impressive. To each his own wallet.

For about five years I was on the upgrade path, swapping out one component at a time, fortunately each swap was an improvement, but am now happy with my equipment and am pretty much "done" with hardware upgrades.  It's now time in my journey to shift my concentration from the equipment to the music...it's a more-relaxing time in my journey.
