MARK:
100/100 !!!
Here's
what I define the current best hi-end equipment options to date. If I could give 110/100
once, this would be the case! So, for your pleasure and the complete satisfaction
of your fine hearing and sight organs, just get hold on the below-mentioned
equipments and I promise you won't be disappointed, no matter what kind of music
your favourite is or if your video source is not necessarily a Blue Ray-DVD or
an HD-DVD. Detail richness, nuance definition, airiness, balance, realistic 3D acoustic/visual
final impact. Every pro acoustician/video hooligan couldn't live without'em!

Also you may add
a professional equalizer with steadily-cutting control tones by Clark Technik
(you might also opt for Harman (UK), Sabine (USA), or Ashley, really not
that bad, either) your hi-fi system.
N.B.: Finally, I found the best positions
for my equipment and the most suitable properly-treated room, hall and studio for that, and I used
special materials and innovative strategies to reduce all kinds of electrical interferences, noise, vibrations and other obstacles
colouring the sound, following the masters of this tradition, the English pro
sound constructing engineers. For

I've always stressed out the importance of having a good hi-fi
equipment to listen to what has really been recorded and not lose sound detail, video information and the expression, the feeling the audio/vudeo maker originally wished to convey,
and of course this is also true for lo-fi recordings.
Unluckily you always have to
act through the art of compromise between the actual listening environment, the
best possible environment the system was designed for, and the system you can
afford,but should you need pro help, you can contact me and I'll solve all of your problems; just pay me for the ticket, consulence and optimization and you'll be satisfied like never before! The first thing you have to choose is the kind of system you need
(multi-room, marine...); if you choose for a chain and not a system you first
have to choose your loudspeakers after careful listenings to your favourite hardest-to-play-well
CDs/DVDs at a trustworthy hi-end specialist retailer, one giving you every additional
personal advice.
