So many crxx demos on youtube, many of multi thousand $ systems who's owners can't be bothered to buy a half decent mic yet want to show off their toys ... ... praise the few that impressed you (and don't be afraid to comment afterwards, as if you were :) ). I'll start with this one; https://youtu.be/cZDp1HCGKlY

Forgive me but was that a good or bad one in your opinion?

That music was undigestible

One for andrewjvt...

Ive watched that one before.
The music is only slightly better than drummermans one.

I agree, music taste comes into it but it's more about the quality of the dem.

Plenty of Vids with perhaps good music but shite recording.

Still, I get your point.

Look for one you like and post.

Can anything be actually gained from it? Surely majority won't deliver due to poor mic/recording equipment and format of video (sound). If that's the case what can be gained? Would you perhaps shortlist equipment based on YouTube demos?

The best YouTube video I've seen was the one were the chap was playing the aristocrats flatlands on his setup but I can not find the video

I have seen Guthrie Govan / Aristocrats play live a few times and spoken to him also,he is one of the best quitarists I have ever heard, I met him once at a Jeff Beck gig in the audience!

All of his recordings are top notch.

I quite like the music and it doesn't sound to bad either apart from bad room acoustics especially that nasty peak between 70 and 100 hz.

Nice dynamics.

This is about as near as I can find to Guthrie Govan playing live on a home audio system. *smile*

Африканские барабаны на Victor ZERO-1000

Otto SX-C20M

YAMAHA NS-20 + Sansui CA-3000 BA-3000 + SONY PS-2410

Good shout.

Love those Zero-1000's!

The Otto's sound good too as do the eye sores in the third one.

What do all have in common?

Decent bass/mid drivers, none of those tiddly 5inch things.

This one isn't too bad, shame it's not longer.

I saw this one a few times before.

Strange, although it sounds quite impressive initially I feel that Brubeck sounds strangely rushed. Almost as if the amplifiers are in a hurry to finish the piece.

Its almost as if that lovely change of timing and lovely rythm for which they have been known isn't realised in this system or at least this vid?
