Is OLED burn-in a problem? We want your input on one of TV’s hottest topics!
Why is it ......
- Thread starter chebby
- Start date
Your unconscious mind is taking in and remembering that old sound you used to love - so when your new speakers arrive and are set up, you will know just how much more of everything they give you.
This means you will get even more out of your new speakers and may find you are surprised at just how much more they give you than those old favourites.......
Enjoy

chebby: ... that when you order a new pair of speakers the old ones start sounding twice as good?
Spot on. I had to wait 6 weeks for a pair once and I used some cheapo boston acoustics in the mean time and by the time the new ones arrived, I was really digging those little BAs. LOL

Blame your UCS, chebby.

Been there and done that Chebby!
Just think back to the reasons you originally started looking at replacement speakers in the first place, that should re-affirm that you set out with the right intentions.
If you've listened and auditioned and had some good advice then don't worry, it's just either anxiety or excitement!
What did you go for in the end?

I wanted something small and tuneful with good presence and pace and detail - even at lower volumes - that are well finished in real wood (Maple actually) on all faces and are a sealed cabinet design that can be used on stands, shelf or wall. Whatever bass is on offer should be genuine and not turbo'ed from a one frequency hole in a big box. Should be compatible with my system, look good, but have little - no impact on room and furnishings and make minimum demands on placement so we don't have to pander to the hifi whenever we move stuff around, re-furnish etc.
Should be aesthetically and sonically 'forgettable' in the best sense of forgetting about hifi and just enjoying whatever is on.
Should be balanced with my existing system so they do not reveal deficiencies or have their own deficiencies revealed in turn. That way lies more upgrading.
I once had the same system from 1996 - 2007 and I want this lot to do just as well.

Because your partner has the temmerity to reuse the immortal phrase: "Well I can't tell the difference" in an indignant tone.
Suddenly you begin backtracking and wondering if he/she is in fact right and you're left uttering "... yeah well..." or "... well kinda ...".
Or of course there is the chance that despite all your research and auditioning your new shiney-shiney just doesn't work with your kit or room acoustics!
