Music Preferences and Comments: | |
Music Used (Genre/Selections): | Rock, Metal, Jazz, Techno and occasionally some Classical |
System Goals/Comments: | In the process of upgrading a budget HT system into a good sounding 2-Channel stereo system |
System Strengths: | Outstanding highs, very detailed. Great vocal clarity, excellent midrange, and good imaging. Music is very defined, especially in the upper frequencies. |
System Weaknesses: | Bass can get boomy occasionally and the highs can get slightly fatiguing at times. I think the harshness can be attributed to the recording most of the time. No big deal though, as most of the time everything sounds excellent. |

Sources (DVD/VCR): | Playstation 2, Sony hifi VCR |
Comments on HT System: | I watch the occasional DVD through the PS2 every once in a while. Decent quality but definetly nothing special in terms of A/V quality. |
