The thread below mentioned something about this and I think it's an interesting debate:
Of all the components in a chain, which one is, in your opinion, the one that has benefited the most from modern advances in technology?
By modern technology I mean from let's say 2005 to now.
In my view, it's speakers. I pick them because I think it's possible to get the kind of quality now that in 1985 would have been untouchable both in price and technology.
On the other hand, I think turntables are only just starting to take advantage of new tech and, due to the 30 year lag in innovation, are one of the components where old examples like the Nakamichi tx1000 represent technology that may have been perfected by now had the lag not happened.
What are your picks?
