In Reply to: What's your opinion of 1-ch, vs. 2-ch vs 3-ch vs 5-ch, etc. ? posted by jedinvest on July 13, 2002 at 16:11:27:
I regularly listen to "Death Metal." For those of you not familar with this subgenre of heavy metal, the lyrics are usually gutteral growls (though "barking" of the lyrics and screams are also quite common). What I've noticed while upgrading is that intelligibilty of the vocals has been mostly tied to the source. At least it is when dealing with mid-fi (I hate that word) digital. Some DACs would smear everything together, and some wouldn't.If I had to pick a 2nd "bottleneck," it would be the amp<-->speaker relationship. Generally not having enough power for a particular speaker will make averything sound "murky." Probably not unlike a high impedance headphone being driven without a proper headphone amp.
But this is all kind of moot if your trying to improve spoken dialog from "TV" broadcasts. The source in that case is the TV itself, cable box, sat box, or some other "tuner." Though the "source" in that case may be adequate. Even trying to test with another source, would introduce that source as a variable.
