NO; don't stop now. We like these reviews. Why doubt your ability to tell if something sounds good? Half the people crowing about how much they know about audio have terrible sounding systems, but hey; they sure measure good; real good.
Those old guys from Altec used some pretty sophisticated design tools; it was called the E.A.R. ultra-fidelity measuring system.
It's funny how a lot of guys have a little "Vintage" system that they apologise for becuase it was designed through trial and error and.. listening. Just something to have fun with; not real serious audio stuff. Then they go home and listen to it more than their computor optimised; designed and measured ultra-fidelity stuff.
Why is that?
