In Reply to: RE: What is your definition of high fidelity? "Original" what? posted by Tre' on September 19, 2015 at 20:09:24
A high degree of "truthfulness" to the original? That is subjective goal unless you have a metric to define "truthfulness". Not everyone will agree on what is most "truthful" to the original.
The "sound" of the instrument? Another subjective goal. Unless you were there at the mike feed, it's impossible to know with certainty what the sound was exactly, and even two people who were there may not necessarily agree because not everyone interprets sensory input identically. And that isn't even touching on the fact that not all instruments of the same kind even sound the same!
That's the problem with subjective goals. There is no objective way to prove when you have reached them, or no absolute reference to judge exactly how close you are. All you can do is give your opinion, and as we know, even seasoned experts with all the experience in the world may and do disagree. There is no closed solution.

I can do this all night but it won't convince you of anything so what's the point?
I can see that this is going no where.
Why don't you just bring your amp over and we'll give it a listen?

what I doubt is that everyone would share your interpretation of that experience.
And no, I won't be swayed that your experience and opinion of those experiences is universal truth.
Ever see the film Rashomon?
Anyway, I have a feeling you are no where close or I would be happy to give you a listen. I suggest trying to find someone local with an ncore based amp and have at it....In the meantime, check out the specs. I think you will find them interesting.
try it! you know you want to!
