When I write about audio performance I normally use a reductionist methodology, by breaking performance down into basic audiophilia interests in recording artifacts like imaging, soundstaging, soundspace, resolution, and transparency, as well as those fundamental attributes of music such as timbre, tone color, tempo, melody, harmony, rhythm, dynamics, and loudness, for example, in order to paint you a picture of what a given components performance is like.
However, my experiences with Yazaki-sans Real Sound refers to aspects of audio performance that transcends both the recording artifacts & musical fundamentals I described above, while holistically combining them into an overall gestalt that delivers a home music experience that is natural, beautiful, visceral, and powerfully emotive, and which, I hope, will be the direction of the next frontier of home audio.
A friend after reading the article said the following.
What's very revealing is the title that Jeff Day has selected for his new venture - "Adventures in Real Sound..."
What the heck was he listening to all these years? And, these reviewers take so much credit for rediscovering sound, sound that was available for so many years!
Reinventing the wheel?
