I settled on Rega for turntables, Marantz for amps, Technics for CD and initially Royd, then Tannoy for speakers.
There is definitely a huge difference between good gear and bad gear, just as there is between good and bad production.
The only thing you can do is trust your ears.
If a system or a recording can reproduce well recorded voices, solo violin, piano or a brass band with some accuracy it's likely to do most things well.
It's amazing how how many so called 'High end' systems cannot.
Unfortunately, as you say, it cannot compensate for poor production at source. Often frustrating.
Do some people really buy albums for the production and not the songs?
That's just missing the point.

Anyway - I’m sure it’s an excellent article.

May upgrade the power amp to monoblocks next summer. Though, would also like to go back to valve amp, so might get a Radford STA25 MK 5.
