Audio reviews really do turn me on sometimes. Very stimulating and magical. It's more entertainment value than anything.
What I look for, more than anything else, is consistency. If a dozen or more reviewers all experience the same thing, it gives it a bit more weight, though it certainly doesn't prove anything. Just a nice thing to see, in terms of deciding what to focus my attention on.
It is very sexual. It is when it is talked about with the right words. This is maybe 50% of why normal folks think audiophiles are crazy.
Pure talk like.
" After the speaker placement we laser guided the transducers to a degree of 1.3 percent. We found pulling the speakers from the wall another 5 inches increased headroom and dropped the bass another level. "
"We all agreed to let the system settle for a couple weeks just coming by to check on some test tones and waiting for the expected $6000 CD player to arrive so we could take everything to the next level."
In the second week of March a big grey box arrived. Yep... I was able to use my hand dolly to transport this box into the listening room. Before long we found the player was sounding fantastic, farther than our wildest dreams and almost reaching a vinyl level of musical authority and interplay.
I had Gus over from Sound Systems to help laser place the listening area. All test tones proved what we were hearing. This speaker could apply for speaker of the year when driven right. Heck even when driven under power it sparkles like stars in the sky.
The only reason I left the listening room is my wife called to tell me our new puppy was sick and she would devorce me if I stayed in the listening room any longer.
"Still I must report, at my age finding a system that does Bach Organ this well is the mana from God all audiophiles have been searching for half their life. And at this price we sure hope the company doesn't get big headed and ask the price these speakers are really worth!
