Music Preferences and Comments:
Music Used (Genre/Selections):	'Esoteric' Rock--including but not limited to 'alt country', 'trip-hop', 'old-school punk', 'acid jazz', 'regular jazz', 'power-pop', and 'female vocal'. Anything but classical and the crap they play on the radio.
System Goals/Comments:	To be immersed in an "organic" and "relaxed" presentation with wide and deep sound staging. To sound like actual music and to sound good with everything, not merely some things.
System Strengths:	Fast transients, extremely dynamic, massive sound scale and images, instruments sound full bodied and very much like the real thing, natural cohesive sound completely unforced. Sounds excellent on the wide variety of music that I listen too, not limited to audiophile drek.
System Weaknesses:	Size of speakers? Would like to improve the room tuning--more ASC at some point.
Video/HT System: None
TV/Projector:	Sony XBR X-900F 75" 4K (Basement) TCL Roku 50" 4K (Family Room) Panasonic TH 50PX75U 42" Plasma HDTV (Bedroom)
Speakers (Center, Surrounds, Sub):	Sony ST5000 Soundbar
Comments on HT System:	It's fine, not that interested in HT.
Other Interests/Hobbies/Occupation:	Music. Movies. Mayhem. My seventeen year old. Good food and drink.
