As some of you may know I am now without my speakers. But that is a long, sad story...not fit for unsuspecting ears.
In the meantime, I want to try and learn more about what I should be getting out of my system. I am a relative newbie to this crazy addiction/hobby.
In my quest for knowledge, I humbly request that people describe the soundstage they get with their setup. Please take pity on a newbie and refrain from using lingo as I am not sure what it means.
In particular, I am interested to understand the following:
1. what does a "deep" soundstage sound like? Does this mean you hear different layers of instruments?
2. where does your soundstage begin? Is the music project forward from the speakers or is it flush along the frontal plane?
3. what does a wide soundstage mean? Does this mean music is projected wider than where the speakers physically are?
4. how centered and focused should the music be? In my setup, with very little toe in, I get a very focused sound right in the middle but is it too focused? I think I am losing stereo imaging but I am not sure.
I know someone will say its all up to my preferences but I just want to hear what other people have so that I can learn.
Thanks for your input.
