Apparently in my country school of thought, harmonics are a big deal and important aspect of sound reproduction.
So often systems even more expensive one have been criticised of not having enough harmonics. The absence of harmonic is more prevalent in digital system due to so much more noise from electrical source, computer chip..
Another interesting that Nordost cable have been known to keep/maintain the harmonics while other brands cable seems to destroy harmonic.
Vibration management tool such as stillpoints feet are said to also highlight the body of a note and losing that precious harmonics tail.
So to stir thing up a little bit, i would like to ask a few question:
- what create proper harmonics in a system?
Expensive DAC, TT, music server or electronics?
- what maintain harmonics??
Cables, proper grounding, vibration management??
- what destroy harmonics??
Room acoustics, bad cables, bad eletricity, bad vibration management?
- is there a trade off between harmonics and other aspect of a system(nuances, tone)??
Regards,
