Isn't trying to recreate the sound of a band of musicians in our living room an ever-so-slightly odd idea?Does anyone here remember that scene in the film "Mr. Hulot's Holiday"? The other vacationers were scrambling around wondering where all of this racket was coming from and Hulot was the guy they found sitting alone in his little room, calmly *listening to music at lifelike levels*. Check it out at about 28:30 in the video. It is a very funny scene!
For a few decades audiophiles managed to look smart and cool. Today they are reaping the derision that they have, perhaps, always deserved.
