How many post/threads have you read were an individual is head over heels because they are "Hearing things that they never heard before!" because of an upgrade to their system?
I can honestly say that I am one of those people. However, the question is, how much information is on a given source to be brought out? How do you know that what you are hearing is what Director intended? When do you know if the Mixing Engineer and the Director are on the same sheet? Or better still, If it was late on a friday afternoon and the Mixing Engineer hurried his product?
I'm just curious if anyone really knows! Most of us go through great lengths (even with a modest system)to get as close to the OAR of sound as possible. Could most of it be useless?
I have drooled over many great systems/equipment over the years, and have been fortunate enough now and then to own some. When I put on a cd that makes me just sit with my jaw open, from how well it was processed, I have to ask myself...How much better can it get? What could I possibly be missing?
What is the "Holy Grail"?
