I know him for years but never heard his car. One day Chuck drove me and with pride played his audio in car. I was incredibly horrible. I was trying to to figure out what he was listening but it was physically painful to hear. Then I was that he had analog 18 channel EQ in his car. I asked if I can to change it. Is 3 minutes, sliding the EQ filters I converted that idiotic sound that he had in his car into not only reasonable sound but into a very good Sound. Now the question: was it the equipment fault or the Chuck’s stupid expectations what reproduced sound shall sound like?
I had same experience with my cousin, but I told him-after altering the sound-I'm sure you are gonna change it back to tiss tiss-boom boom the moment I'm out of car. But to my surprise after a couple of days later came back to me and told how much relaxing the sound became. It seems sometimes just by "showing" right sound some people wont go back to the crap they were listening to. Unfortunately not every one is capable of this learning, when some audiophile friends are over the moon after listening to Kharma and Marten ceramic with solid state amps. Regards, Armen
