I was listening to Parsifal on my friend's stereo . He lives in sizable sheet (Shit..) rock midwest home with semi open floor plan (living room opening to kitchen on short er wall ). Acoustic Solid TT with FR64s /Koetsu onyx cart Audio Research PH7 phono Audio Note M6 with silver caps and Audio Research Classic 120 amps.
First went Audio Note AN-E Spe HE/Hemp speakers - blah , no bass, nope nothing below 100 hz and singers sounded like they were singing with rear ends ...Strange , I really like Audio Note speakers but room probably too big and wrong amp . Next vintage pair of Proac 3.5 , blah the woofers sounded like they were mounted in the speakers playing in the other room and tweeter was harsh and unpleasant , of course NO BASS , none .
Next Reference 3a Grand Veena , I had a headache and a toothache after a half of the record . Tipped up , distorted, compressed midrange, fatiguing
and of course NO BASS as well, probably too large of the room but its not a Mac Mansion by any means . Next , Audio Physic Libra , finally some civilized sound with scale , scene and balance also some reminiscence of BASS although also very compressed at realistic levels.
I'm so happy to have a small house...:)
