The big problem with audiophools is you can't hear the music over them
telling you how great the system is.

I like the music I play to sound as close as it can to hearing it live
at a concert. Most of what I listen to is what might be called
"classical" music, some symphonic but mostly chamber, and there usually
are no electronics connected directly to the instruments, and the miking
is done for balance. I don't listen at super loud levels, either. I've
listened to a few Bose 901 series speaker setups, and I've yet to hear
one that sounds as if you are seated in a concert auditorium. I looked
up the 901 system on the Bose site and had a good laugh at the list price.
