General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

I must say that you can have the scale, the dynamics, the time and phase coherency...

but in the end we will be stuck with the fact that most recordings are multimiked, are not even trying to create a soundstage, are compressed, etc. and therefore no speaker would (even in the ideal "speaker as perfect electric to acoustic transducer" situation) satisfy with most recordings. That is obvious fact.

You have to find the one that answers your needs with the kind of music you listen to and the room, ears, and ancillary equipment that you own. It must allow you to enjoy music, which is its real purpose.

There seems to be the belief that live music lies at the end of the audiophile rainbow. For that to be the case, we need to be working on the recording side of the chain as well, which is not our M.O.
