| SiliconWizard:
The problem with this kind of (very popular on EE forums) topic is that it tends to invariably mix up what is purely subjective, what is purely marketing, what actually makes some sense and what absolutely doesn't. So it often ends up not being particularly fruitful. And you're not going to change the mind of this type of audiophiles, those who fall for pure marketing, if that's the goal. This mix up sometimes leads to extremes, assertions such as "listening to some music on my tablet's speakers is every bit as good as listening to it on $10k worth of equipment". No, it's not, even when $1k would likely be good enough already. The really expensive stuff, for the right reasons (not the stupid dust moon cables), these days, are the speakers, and it will be hard to find something really good for under $1k or so. Now usually, at least for stereo sound for a moderate-size room, spending more than this is just luxury. |
