Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: Speakers too Good for My Ears??

Well, recordings ARE highly variable in quality, and more resolving speakers WILL reveal the differences between them (and the shortcomings of the bad ones) more clearly. The Vandies are generally regarded as "smooth, forgiving" speakers, but they will still tell you the truth about overly bright/edgy recordings. But don't they make the best recordings more enjoyable?

Seems the options are to (A) only listen to "audiophile approved" recordings, (B) simply accept that some of your favorite music is poorly recorded and "listen through" the problems, or (C) install a good EQ that will let you reduce the treble level on the shrill ones. If you sell the Vandies, you will probably wind up missing them and regretting the decision.
