The synergy between components is, for many enthusiasts at the heart of this hobby. If we exclude the one-brand system and active speakers with built-in dacs etc, for the rest of us, we probably spend most or at least a lot of our time on a quest to find that elusive synergy.
For those with a strong scientific view, synergy might be one of those non-measurable fallacies of the subjectivists.
In the other corner, the mixing and matching of components are for many that believe 1+1+3 or the whole is more than the sum of the parts, the tools of their craft.
So I wonder, is synergy=voodoo or
Is there logic and reason behind the search for synergy?
Please share with us your views, stories and also examples. I would be interested to hear reasons why you think certain components gel and why you had bad experiences with others.
- What are the best speakers for my room?
- What amp will drive my speakers best?
- Will the source complements and blend in well with my system?
