Then again the music genre I heard as a kid mostly had to do with a simple acoustic guitar accompaniment and vocals, no doubt my father's preference in music. I'll have to ask him about that as I don't recall anything else from that time period. |

You know, I noticed you have a Woo WA6. I have had a WA6, WA6se... and finally his WA5-Le. If you have some spare funds sometime I REALLY Highly recommend the WA5... It uses 300B tubes... I upgraded with Takatsuki 300b tubes.. It is a jaw dropping... completely different, worlds better, warm... huge midrange bloom... powerful... I can go on and on... if you get the non-LE (i should have) it can drive speakers. It is so powerful it grabbed my Sennheiser 800’s and filled them out and sound a lot like my Utopias (in a good way). It took my headphone system up several levels. Probably caused me to upgrade my main system because it showed how powerful and detailed the midrange should be. Now I have that on my main system as well... the ARC Ref 160s did it. Not syrupy or flabby bass at all. But with the kiss of tube warms to make it so compelling, comfortable, and real.

I have owned the EarMax and EarMaxPro for many years Joel. My friend is enjoying my EarMaxPro and promised to return it some day. It has been a few years, should I worry?

As it applies to my original post in this thread and a philosophical way of looking at the reality of high fidelity.
Easy to get carried away with the perfect reproduction of sound and being true to the music but I think in the end, one should focus more on the actual enjoyment that is derived from the system and try to please the inner music lover rather than the perfectionist. A brief video that serves as a reminder that what we hear on our end is far from perfect music reproduction as it happened in that moment of time-space. It is not about one media being superior or inferior, it is about the recording, mixing and mastering process that goes into every bit of music we listen to on our ends. How to master for Vinyl. https://youtu.be/D4ghoTVXHxs |
