HowdyIt's amazing how once you hear good bass you never want to go back and similarly once you hear good highs you never want to back.
I just auditioned a Krell system: LAT-1000 speakers, Evolution One mono blocks (tho they are two blocks/channel :), SACD Standard, Cardas speaker wire. Tho the bass was fine (if not as detailed as I expected), the garbled high freqs were quite distracting. You couldn't locate the cymbals and other percussion in a single position in the sound stage at all on "Blues in Orbit" track 3 and you couldn't tell what the washboard was on The Vivino Blues Brothers "Blues Band" track 9 (in fact the salesman said "What's that distortion in the right speaker?", you should have seen his face when I said "On a system with good resolution you can clearly hear it as a washboard in it's own space.")
