In the Thread: Where high-end audio starts?

Post Subject: Where high-end audio starts?Posted by Romy the Cat on: 6/19/2013

I spoke recently with an audio guy who gourmet himself as advanced audio fellow and I was stricken how in fact banal and dull his audio interests are. I asked him: what in your view the high-end audio starts? He suggested that it starts with ability of a person to assemble a highly discriminative playback. I was looking at him as he was a hands amputee person who learned how to write holding a pen in his feet or mouth. For sure those handicap people do deserve respect for them overcome their physical limitation and for their accomplishment but this is not what defines what art of writing is.

So, I would like to post to the readers of my site a question: what in your view would be the most mandatory and the most prominent ingredient in high-end audio? Where high-end audio starts in a person?

I would give you a little tip: in my view the absolute majority of people in audio do not have it. They are hand amputee writers who can write very fast with holding hands in left feet but their writing is not like by Leo Tolstoy, Charles Dickens or Jonathan Swift. Not that do anything wrong but what they do, in my view, is not high-end audio. So, where does audio starts…
