Lol yeah I agree with you completely, I was just tying it all back in to home theater. And having seen Rush twice, granted I'm not old enough to have seen them in their prime, but I greatly prefer watching them with quality sound reproduction at home!
Speaking of which, I've recently been enjoying a pair of Focal Solo6 Be's. Never heard a speaker that can so accurately put 3 instruments, that are basically soloing the whole time, on such an equal and expansive sound stage. And they are near field monitors playing outside their means, my room isn't huge, but the seating distance is about 11'. I now very much have a taste for beryllium.
And yes I have a healthy kidney I can spare!
