Nature works its wonders in mysterious ways. I had finally (and a little reluctantly) made up my mind to change my amp, speakers and cables. Because my system was no longer doing everything I wanted it do. Boredom had set in and I was hungry for change.
A pm from Joshua and later a call from Magma informed me that Shanti aka Bhagwan would be passing through Chandigarh and that he would be getting in touch. I rang up Shanti and he came over to my place yesterday morning. After a leisurely lunch he got down to repositioning and tweaking my music system in the afternoon. And he did a fabulous job of re-positioning the VABBG's and tweaking my entire system. The change which he wrought to the entire experience of listening to music in my living room was truly remarkable.
By a conservative estimate there must be a 40-50% improvement in the SQ. My feeble attempt at practicing the dark arts of room acoustics could never have accomplished what he achieved in 45 minutes. He seemed to be absolutely sure about what he was doing. I happily sat back and watched and listened as my system acquired a new dimension, a higher fidelity, which was beguiling, seductive and highly addictive. Since late afternoon yesterday (with a pause from midnight to 5am to catch up on sleep) the music has been pouring forth like a river of liquid gold. A huge step up the stairway to high fidelity heaven.
Shanti
I hope you had a pleasant flight back to Mumbai. Thank you for listening patiently to what I and my wife desired from our music system. Thank you for actually making it happen so quickly. Instant gratification! So please accept a deep bow of gratitude for the wonders that you wrought in Chandigarh yesterday :clapping:
I hope you will have the time and the inclination to explain what was needed to be done in my music room and how you did it.
