Jabroni is bitter and disgruntled, but I believe he is because it appears that he based his equipment purchases on an an unrealistic assumption, which is that the better the gear, the better the sound. That is not how it works, especially for companies like Bryston. The point of what they do is to make equipment that faithfully reproduces what was put on to the source medium. So if the source material is poor, good equipment will reveal that reality more than lesser equipment. I've put a lot more than he has in his gear and I have a lot more music, but I am neither bitter nor disgruntled because my investments have paid off in terms of what I expect - well recorded music sounds better, but I recognize that I have to live with poor recordings sounding worse. Unreasonable expectations, on the other hand, always produce this inevitable result: being left bitter and disgruntled.
