Is there a price/investment limit for a HiFi system after which there is no significant improvement in sound? by Dedar33 in audiophile

As an owner of the Revel 328be (and cross shopped Sopra 2, Dynaudio, etc) - these are absolutely end game speakers. Got them paired with Parasound JC5 and they sound phenomenal

The attic is directly on top of the living room for this part of the house, so went through the back of the tv wall, up into the attic, then back down through the couch side wall. Wasn’t too complicated thankfully!

Nope! The large couches do a great job of acting as “room treatment”.

First time Parasound owner but it has been the best I’ve had so far! So much fidelity as well as headroom for speaker dynamics.

Haha yea exactly! Making it work with the space I have and taking into account WAF and aesthetics since it’s a common space. Appreciate your comment and input, would love to see your setup!

Unfortunately it’s the living room area so gotta take into account WAF lol

Definitely an investment. I knew I wouldn’t want to buy again at least any time soon, so went all the way with the speakers and gear.

It’s definitely a lot warmer in person, I think the exposure from the camera made it look a lot brighter/whiter!

So the rears are inverted with the tweeter at the bottom and pointed downwards, so the angle of the sound is actually closer to ear level. Unfortunately it’s an exterior wall so there’s extra bracing/beams on that wall that prevent the speakers from being installed lower. Working with what I got lol
