Music taste

Anyone else change it up as a system evolves?

I know when I had the groin pounder it was mostly playing decaf type stuff with the occasional rock.

Now it's always on some kind of rock from classic, soft, modern, country. It will still play decaf type stuff but the recording value is **** and it's easily notices as being ****.

Yes! I started seeking out music with different types of instruments just to see how each will sound. I also hated how the piano sounded in particular with my old infinity ref set - it was just awful. I've been into a lot of vocal trance lately - very nice vocals as well as that nice chest pounding beat. I think guitar sounds especially nice with good setups, as I'm sure you've noticed - hear every snap of the string.

It was borrowing my son's iPod for a trip recently that made me want to buy some different, more pop radio style of songs. My regular rotation is very heavy on aggressive music with guitars, drums, and a lot of harsh vocals. Changing out different equipment and getting my systems sounding better never really has made me want to branch out much. I've had reference quality music for years. It's just the occasional bass-heavy song when I'm in the mood, but I still haven't heard any decaf.

Santana. You can hear him miss strings.

I've been messing around with some of the 7.1 test stuff. That's pretty cool with the 3D imaging.

How does that translate into the car environment? We're running 2.2 setups? lol

Since I have added a comp set, I find myself looking for something not so bass heavy, but with a more balanced output. But if you were to peruse my cds, you would anyhing from bb king to the oakridge boys, even pink, and nora jones. I have a version of ain't no sunshine when she's gone, by aaron nevelle, one the best songs I have ever heard. As I get older, I find myself mellowing, not so much angy music anymore.

Yeah I went from listening to good music to listening to ghetto rap :

Opposite for me. I started with normal music and have now gone to slowed/decaf stuff because I have a louder system with more low end frequency response

1. Psyph is great

2. I only kind of like one song by Linkin park.

Can't believe it took this long for someone to catch that.

MS-8 doing rear fill.. Logic 7.1 and it's pretty cool if you find optimized stuff to play.
