In Reply to: Does Your System Sound Bigger Than The Music? posted by AudioSoul on July 15, 2014 at 10:47:06:
“I have listened to some stereo systems with large speakers that sound bigger than the actual performance should sound. Like voices and piano sounding bigger than they actually are. I would say that this is an inaccuracy to the performance. What say you? Have you experienced this?”
I totally agree.... This is a common flaw, often exaggerated upper bass/lower midrange to offset tendencies toward “brightness”.... Often caused or exacerbated by poor room acoustics, speaker cabinet resonances, “bloomy” tubes/tube gear, etc. .... (Some tube amps tend to do this when warmed up. I generally don’t like amps that do this.) A system with good linear response and flat frequency response rarely makes things sound noticeably “bigger” or “smaller” than what’s heard live. Especially with non-amplified music. Even with larger speakers/setups.
I’ve known a lot of people who like this type of presentation. But not for me.
