Re: Which do you prefer, Truth or Beauty.

Posted by timothywas1@comcast.net on February 24, 2006 at 17:07:58:

What I look forward to in my system is being able to kick off my shoes and wash away the working day. To be enveloped in a system that does a little bit of it all well enough while involving me emotionally to take me to that special place, where the performance is rendered in truth of instrumental tone along with vocal presence, dynamics and soundstage recreation, so put me in the beauty camp. However; great performances wouldnt exist if it werent for truth both in the studio{ I think Bob Ludwigs Rolling Stones SACDs} as well as the playback chain as Ive heard analytical systems that entertain as well. But for me its all about enjoyment and involvement so when my system takes the snapshot I find myself to involved with the picture to spend too much time fussing,by the way good thread as I enjoyed the article from my monthly Stereophile as well.Regards Tim W.
