...well, I do not understand how a "playback that loves you whomever you are" is to sound like and cannot even imagine what sounds or types of sounds could illicit that particular emotional response. It is not that I do not believe you Romy, because I do, but what does it mean? You have spent a good deal of time documenting your experience but I do not understand.
After a few months listening and learning about my surround speakers yesterday I took delivery of a new dac and decided that Macondo/Melquiades needed to be brought back into service. I've missed them dearly, and oh, what a relief!
Thinking about your recent analogies comparing playback with stereotypes of women and love have been interesting, but I am unable to see Macondo that sort of light. Sure, if Macondo were a female she is definitely the most beautiful in the room, a supermodel. And there is nothing dull about her, she exudes intelligence and self confidence and is definitive in her actions. If forced to think of Macondo in terms of a romantic relationship the closest would be those first heady years full of lust and flirtation where she establishes in your mind her intelligence and thoughtfulness and how the remainder of her time with you should be lived...see if you can keep up. Some men will relish the dynamics of the relationship, some will feel like they are punching above their weight, and some hold too dearly to their chauvanistic tendencies and feel inadequate that she is the better of the pair.
