|
| Room Comments/Treatments: | This system travels with me as I work in different countries.
|
| Music Preferences and Comments:
|
| Music Used (Genre/Selections): | I lean toward classical and jazz for critical listening, but I can appreciate all music that has merit behind it (which means no Brittney Spears or Country ;) )
|
| System Goals/Comments: | This system travels with me as I work in different countries. I've attempted to make things sound good while being portable. I've toyed with the idea of tugging along a PowerPlant, but it's just too much weight.
|
| System Strengths: | SACD playback lends alot of sparkle and the Teatros can usually thow a very good space in the different hotel rooms and flats I inhabit.
|
| System Weaknesses: | Obviously this isn't a no-holds-barred type of ordeal. This is a cost effective, reasonably portable system used to while away the months I spend abroad. Dealing with various rooms gets interesting.
