Chasing Holography / Why We Love Floating Images

Does a stereo system have to present floating, 3D images in order to be considered truly hifi? Does it need to be called "holographic" in order to be enjoyable?Does a bear poop in a toilet? Holographic sound may be one major thing both of The Hifi Podcast hosts chase, but it's not the only thing to love in a hifi system, by far.Regardless, many in the audiophile hobby are after this sort of fun, and as Darren and Duncan discuss, the elements which can have an effect on the holographic presentation of a system come from many different places in a rig.The effects also seem to be cumulative, making this another quasi tweak-fest episode.This week's album recommendation is an audiophile-level recording of a duet of masters, and is a perfect opportunity to shout out one player who is well known to many audiophiles. This album isn't nearly as well-known, so be sure to listen through to the end.  This podcast is powered by CommonGround Cables Whisper power cable.
