It seems to happen often enough that I have some idea of how I want to change my system, broadly in terms of sound, but it takes me a while to figure it out and get it done. I remember quite a few "ambience systems" over the years, including the original 4 channel. I have seen and heard LPs in that format. My own take away after listening to this stuff was that while something was gained, something was lost; ie., it was at best a wash. It's been repeated many times here, the Magician's Axiom: "Don't call up what you can't put down." To that I'd add, "Don't throw out the baby with the bath water." If we stay focused, who knows what we might discover. If we don't look up for a while, who knows where we'll be when we do look up. I keep hearing how people are getting their best sound ever by digitizing everything and re-processing it. Has this really increased the trove of great source material, along with the Sound Quality to bring it Home? Who knows what the future will bring us. I'm waiting for Signs.
