You are taking it the wrong way. I think what he meant was after getting used to the better sound quality, over time you no longer notice it. Which is pretty true for any type of senses, be it a IMAX movie, or a extravagant meal. If you do it all the time, overtime your brain adapts and you are no longer wowed by what you have. The Coby earbuds part was a stretch though.

Personally if I have $1700 to burn on home entertainment system, sound would be pretty low on the list. I can tolerate audio quality a lot more than video quality or chair quality.

I mean absolutely no offense, although this will probably come out sounding offensive, but I don’t think I could take audio advise from somebody would would say something like this, even if I was offered to be paid to take it:

> First, the brain registers the quality in the first few minutes
> and then you forget about it.

I could never forget the “wows” I’ve felt through experiencing very high quality audio
