Way back in the day, I stayed up late to watch a movie on my 13" black and and white TV. I'm not going to name it.
But I sat there terrified during a scene where a blinking light on a monitor approached a stationary light on the monitor, and the actors were all screaming: "Get out of there! Get out of there."
On a thirteen-inch black and white.
Decades later a friend treated me to a viewing of his highdef TV with elaborate sound system. I was really impressed at first. Then I thought that the movie was kinda dumb. I lost all interest in twenty minutes.
For me, here is an important message about the relationship between music and gear. What is the music about? How is it expressed? Does it sound good? In that order, I think, for me.
What do you think? Everybody has a different take on the importance of lyrics, arrangement, performance, sound quality.
