People, or mostly likely the dealers, post an exotic system on social media. It will receive unwavering likes and endorsement unless they heard and approved them. Otherwise, intelligibly gear-fetishism, a rabbit hole, an audio technocrat cult. I considered SOTA equipment a highly precision instrument will require meticulous set up to realize its full potential, but sadly .... not the case. Without good sound backing, it is a poster system with little substance. Good for picture taking.
Sound is the real prize. These clips deliver a fraction of the sound, given the compressed file and the limited bandwidth of your laptop and mobile phone. You would not be able to discern the imaging, macro dynamics and soundstage, the inherent of two channel system.
These systems under capable hands will deliver the true edge the technology promises. The irony is the wealthy people are generally not audio enthusiast while true audio enthusiasts are not wealthy.
