So I don’t have a super high-end system by any means. I have JBL L36 speakers. They sound awesome. There is some music that sounds absolutely incredible on them. The Beatles – Abbey Road. Oscar Peterson - We Get Requests, Robag Wruhme - Thora Vukk, Lorde - The Louvre…

There is some of my favourite music however, that sounds completely non-impactful and wimpy on the speakers as well. Depeche Mode - Never Let Me Down Again, and in fact most of their catalogue. Bowie - Berlin trilogy sounds weak but it slams in my car…

I would really love to know if someone has a great system and Depeche Mode/Bowie sound fantastic on it.

    I have a solid (in my opinion) system in my living room. Sounds just like I want it to for Pop, Americana, Folk, etc., but there are some thing that sound better in the garage. That set up is and old receiver and some big ass Kenwood speakers up on a shelf. Depends on the mood.

      My garage system is cheap ass and I love it. AC/DC Who Made Who, Van Halen, early Metallica sound authentically better through my old $69 Dayton B652 Airs and a passive Optimus Radio Shack sub that are carelessly shoved on a storage rack behind tarps and tomato cages. On occasion I have grabbed a can of Miller Lite and a lawn chair and enjoyed music bliss.
