I heard a demo of high-end Magnepans and the sound was amazing. I felt the music was colored, for sure. Like mere mortal musicians couldn’t sound ever sound that good. At home, I have a great neutral system, on the other hand. Sometimes I get a craving for that Maggie sound I heard that day. But I wonder if, after a while, I would tire of it, and want my neutral speakers back. I guess being satisfied with what I have is the goal for me.

I’ve found that most loud, distorted guitars sound better on cheaper equipment. Hendrix is an exception though. He sounds great on my system.

Beck’s Sea Change sounds better on a better system. Almost anything by Radiohead too.

Standout production on Rumors. Also Tango in the Night though to a slightly lesser degree.

I have always thought Help had a lower sq than their other LPs. Interesting.

I agree. The 90s bands with the loudest guitars sound crappy on my higher-end system. The more melodic arrangements sound amazing.
