I wonder if anyone will do research on the age demographic for this show and see if, like all the others, it goes up by a year every year..
What's the ppint in demming cr@p £20K+ systems to people who cannot and will never be able to afford this stuff? There's only a very few hundred people in the whole of the UK who would justify such a spend IMO..
I have more to say on this subject, as I've spent the whole of this morning with year 7's and 8's composing on and "playing" percussion on some VERY loud bongo's, djembe's and associated instruments. I wish it were possible to get them to take the leap from MP3 personals with cheapo ear-piece headphones to a small but effective baby "HiFi!"
Let's be honest fella's, with VERY few exceptions, most stereo's get MUCH WORSE and far further away from reality the higher the purchase price gets. I look forward to hearing a turntable based system that even BEGINS to reproduce percussive bass properly - A NAS Dias comes within spitting distance and I suspect a bass-controlled Techie may also, but this "organic musicality" so beloved of so many fruitbox owners is WRONG, WRONG, WRONG big time!!!!!!!!
I also think that "trebly" speakers are totally wrong as well, as a hand on a drum-skin, or woodblocks clicking together, let alone cow-bells or tambourine style instruments... Those fancy, hideously expensive metal dome or otherwise tweeters jangling and spitting away don't have any real fidelity to the original sound (and yes, the "sparkle" in my BC2's ain't right either, although the added damping and port mod helps bass a bit.......
