There may be a number of reasons the MEGA speakers didn't sound as good as the Dunlavys. Component mismatches that may have mucked things up, but I in my experience, many audiophiles and maybe even designers are "missing the forest for the trees".I would say the "audiophile's" list of the components of good sound reproduction would include descriptions like: soundstage, depth, timbre, PRaT, impact, decay, imaging, etc.
But, HOW DO WE LISTEN??? I think many audiophiles audition a speaker and consciously compartmentalize their audition by seperately evaluating each component of the sound. And if each component of the sound works, then the speaker is acceptable. I've made this mistake myself. I failed because I chose to purchase based "the sum of components" rather than the entire "musical experience".
Synergy is another key to building a good system, but that's already been discussed (but probably not practiced)
FWIW
