joec64 Posted January 14, 2002 Share Posted January 14, 2002 All I hear about is the trouble folks have with KSW subs,I have had my set up,quintets cnt/rears/SB2 frts/KSW10 for over a year and it sounds better with every cd/dvd played. I have heard million dollar systems and to my 10 cent ears there is not that much difference. Thanks Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxg Posted January 14, 2002 Share Posted January 14, 2002 Firstly - count yourself lucky. If you are happy with your sound never let anyone talk you into something else - you are going to save a fortune. I had a very similar system to you about 2 years ago - since then I have parted with about $20,000!!! Just out of interest what was the £1 million system you heard? ------------------ 2 * Heresy 2 (mains) 2 * Homemade horn speakers (rears) 1 * REL Strata 3 sub Accuphase E211 amp. Tube monoblocks with separate pre-amp (solid state).

Manuel Delaflor Posted January 14, 2002 Share Posted January 14, 2002 I second that, consider yourself lucky.. must of us are doomed, condemned to upgrades and upgrades for the upgrades, and so on... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kolokolo Posted May 11, 2003 Share Posted May 11, 2003 I have a ksw 10 and I'm quite happy. Soon I will go upto a ksw 15 and I'll stop. Any further for me will not be necessary. I'm lucky as well. Too much upgrading will not get you better and better performance. Mmmmm On second thought I'll get a Krell Master Reference sub. No, Sorry....I just checked what's left on my credit card and my last pay stub. I think I'll stick to the Klipsch ksw 15. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prodj101 Posted May 11, 2003 Share Posted May 11, 2003 there was a time when I thought like you. I like to think of it as system envy and denial. I would listen to my SF-2's, go down to thie HiFi Sound in my town (extreme hifi) and listen to something there and than try to convince myself that even though the stuff their costed 10 times more my system still sound equal, if not better.

TheEAR Posted May 11, 2003 Share Posted May 11, 2003 "I have heard million dollar systems and to my 10 cent ears there is not that much difference." Then you have never heard even a good $50000 system. One thing is sure,if you are happy with the sound of your system(no matter waht system you have)do not waste money on any upgrades. I can say with conviction my larger system outperforms 99% of all quality systems audiophiles have. And yet I will upgrade,because I feel like I can still get the magic 1% or so better performance. Perfection does not exist but you one can get quite close Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
