I'm not second guessing anything .
It's not common to find someone that comes from the pro world and prefers audiophile hifi speakers.
When you're used to flat and neutral sound it's hard choosing anything else, but obviously he likes the Wilson sound better which is great , I just asked what made him like them more then pro studio monitors .

I don't know anything and don't claim to know anything .
That's why I always ask questions and learn new stuff every day .
And that's why I asked for his opinion .
Apprantly it's a bad idea to ask someone for his opinion on a public audio forum.
Or maybe it's bad only when I do it.
But OK ...
It is not about having bad memories about the past, it is about thinking they were better than the actually were. We all have had great times in the past as well as the present but we tend to romanticize the old days.
Nah, prior to the introduction of CD, every home had a record player or tape deck playing sweet analogue music that enriched peoples lives. That God given gift to humanity was stolen by greedy record and audio companies. 40 years later, only now is digital finally fit for purpose.

And I hated records in my youth. I couldn't stand the clicks and pops. I even developed "record cleaning syndrome". It drove me nuts.
Then came CD. What a blessing!! I never looked back. I was finally freed from click/pop OCD.

Funny, now I can listen to records at friends' houses and enjoy them. I even don't much notice clicks and pops while they are the ones who complain about them! But if it were *my* records? I am afraid it would drive me crazy again.

Maybe most people haven't heard good digital playback.
Here's a review of a raved about DAC. Apparently it doesn't work properly unless you upsample with a computer first. Ugh!
This might also explain the bifurcation I perceive between original classical and jazz pressings versus re-issues thereof compared to original pop pressings versus re-issues thereof.
Any DCC Compact Classic pop re-issue I have beats for my ears the original pressing of the same title.
Morten’s 2L recordings have stellar sound although the music is not my taste. His Atmos mixes are sublime especially his Peter Hoff Jazz trio mix which is one of my favorite Atmos mixes,, namely Polarity.

Gee, I hate to wade into these waters but last night played the new Carmen Gomes, Inc. recording in DXD through my lowly Schiit Yggy LIM from a Macbook Pro M1 with AS. The sound was totally holographic. Breathtaking.
