[QUOTE="Shonver, post: 47805, member: 34"] Vaughn made the following comment [url=http://www.avforums.co.za/index.php/topic,3801.msg47792.html#msg47792]here... [/url] The bits I have highlighted are totally opposite to the HiFi Corp experience, where a snot-nosed assistant tries to tell you why 1300W PMPO sounds better than 15W RMS (for those not in the know, these figures have nothing to do with sound quality, and not even comparable in terms of output power rating). I started this thread because Vaughn brought up a very important issue. So, Vaughn (and others): [b]to what extent does poor room acoustics defeat the point of buying more expensive, higher quality gear?[/b] My personal experience is that I have always been able to hear the effect of a better loudspeaker in my own lounge, where the only thing I have done for acoustics is to ensure that there is a rug between the speakers and the couch.
