"Its rare to find a really good sounding system"
Isn't that the case! The sad thing being that often the difference is just a bit of tuning. This can't be done effectively at shows (though I've seen some valiant attempts) and dealers aren't always much better. I admit too that I'm a dipole snob -- planar/ribbon, electrostatic, or even dynamic, they just have a level of realism that I've never heard from a box, no matter how good. I find that it takes quite a bit of experimentation and tuning before I get the kind of sound I want, but it's a pleasure to hear my old Tympanis sounding better and better as I tune the system and the room -- when the sound takes my breath away, I know I'm heading in the right direction.
