David is really too modest here. We went to visit two of his friends who both had spent lost of money to design and built a dedicated music listening room, filled with the most awesome equipment available. I was standing knee-deep in FM Acoustics equipment from Switzerland.

The Wison Whamm II were awesome in their own right, not to mention the Avantgarde horns in the other room.

But most impressive were the purpose-designed rooms. One room had 240 wall modules that could be changed in absorbtion and reflection properties by flipping them over, to tune the room.
I have never heard such lifelike, realistic, "being there" sound in my life.

After some pressure from me one of our hosts reluctantly dug out a CD equivalent to the LP he was playing so we could do some A-B-ing (I am an objectivist and A/B/X man at heart as some of you will know).

No competition. Compared to the LP, the CD sounded dull, lifeless, flat. I know, it flies in the face of common knowledge, and in the face of my beliefs.
I'm still grappling with my experiences and perceptions from that evening.

More later.

That room is bigger than my house. And the kit probably cost more as well!

How would it stack against SACD? Given the level of equipment there, this would be the real acid test!

Cheers
