|
Music Preferences and Comments:
|
Music Used (Genre/Selections): | All except commercial dance/rap acts, or bland stuff like Celine Dion or that sort of muck...
|
System Goals/Comments: | Bring the music to me, warts and all. But preferably without the warts; shall we describe is as the horizon where the 'flat-earth' meets the 'round-earth'?
|
System Strengths: | Musicality and detail, speed and precision. Avoids that bloated 'fat sound' that characterises a lot of flat earth systems.
|
System Weaknesses: | PA3^S is only 23wpc, though sounds like 200wpc. However, ultimate high volumes are limited though I don't listen at those volumes ever anyway...
|
Video/HT System:
None
