[QUOTE="nofearfactor, post: 2942419, member: 1535"] As a working metal/rock/industrial musician Ive messed with sound systems for performing, recording and for pleasure listening at home, on the go, and in my vehicles for over 30 years and still don't know what I like. I buy more stuff that just ends up resold than you can even imagine. I try to learn new stuff every day just by staying up on trends and new gear. Music and sound reproduction is my passion. I sold major sound systems to venues of all sizes while working for Peavey in the 90s. Mostly large churchs and clubs. I hung out with the original THX guys in downtown Modesto CA at Lucas's theatre watching them tweak their creations. At one time I even used a couple of my monster Marshall Dual Monobloc all tube rack power amps to power my home system because I wanted 'pure' power. I've built home sub boxes using auto and 12" guitar cabinet speakers. Yes it can be done. (Match those ohms...). I spent some time with IASCA events back in the day. Today tho I have a bit of cash to buy whatever I like so I can finally enjoy buying brand new high quality gear. I do my homework and seek out gear that enhances my experience in my own personal listening environments. Home, studio and auto. What works for me isn't gonna work for anybody else but prolly another metal/industrial/EDM freak like me, same as the guy who listens only to classical. I have 4 SS systems at my house in OK. My bedroom system is a bare bones 5.1 setup and is more for just when watching movies from the bedroom with the wife, rarely happens, it's usually not even on. Living room/den has a more than decent whole family entertainment system in 7.1. My media room is new to me so still tweaking stuff. I just got started getting into projection systems so that room now has a major A/V system setup that Im really enjoying. My studio/shop system just uses 2 sets of studio bookshelf speakers, no sub. OP- go listen to tons of different gear, educate yourself- easy to do with a computer, and buy stuff that you like to listen thru. Take your time with it and learn what you like. Enjoy. on the road...tapatalkn [/QUOTE]
