Default Adding reverb to hi-fi

No matter how much you spend on equipment, you will
never hear the detail that is in the recordings if your
room
is not acoustically optimized.


This is a misleading statement -- its opposite (or
contrapositive) is not
true -- good room acoustics do not guarantee the audibility
of detail if the
electronics and speakers don't deliver it. Ideally, you want
both good (that
is, appropriate for playback) acoustics, and good equipment.


But no matter how good the equipment and recording techniques,
the program in recordings will be masked by room issues if the
equipment is listened to in an untreated room. Guaranteed.
