There are a lot of people who has a big interest in stereos. You can point out two groups, those who have a big equipment interest and those who have a big hi-fi interest. So what is the different?
People, who have a great equipment interest, often put a lot of money into their car stereo. The numbers of buttons, functions and Watt specification are highly prioritized when choosing the stereo equipment. The choices will often be a system that is found at the supermarket. The stereo will have lot of sound effects, CD charger, cool look and a fat bass. A good �equipment� system must be able to play loud with lot of bass and treble.
A hi-fi interest is when you are putting the music reproducing in focus. Buttons and fancy functions are low prioritized and sometimes even prohibited. The hi-fi interested person is choosing the components by test listening. The component ability to reproduce music without modifications is crucial importance. A good hi-fi system will give a high quality music experience even at low volumes.
I have got my hi-fi interest in period of ten years. It all started when I listened to a friend�s stereo, this was a great experience and I got blessed. At that time I really understood what hi-fi was all about. This experience is till my reference.
During these years I�ve been replacing components frequently. Today I have reached a quality level that I�m quiet satisfied with. The hi-fi interest is a newer ending story, as much as you are replacing components you will always find a component as the weak link. Therefore it�s important to take a brake and enjoy your system, also the music which always will be the most important part!
Except for high quality components, you can find lots solutions to get a better sound. The speaker placement, dismiss vibrations, cables etc. is some of the tweaks you can do to reach a better sound. |
