Thank you Jonathan - for me your Videos are always a deep dive into the field how a good Music System works for our Health and Brain and the tremendous Benefits.*
I adore the allegory and truly appreciate the honest candor on what comprises s t y l e, of which, OMA has in galaxy-sized spades. Those enormous cabinets for example, they exude scale, sobering authority, and of course copious bass. When my t$unami of a windfall arrives, OMA and this video is forever crystalized in my mind. You, Viola Audio Labs, Spectral, EAR Yoshino, Boulder, Ayre, Luxman, ModWright, Accuphase, Totem, ATC, and Paradigm will make history in my discotheque.🙏🌹✨
"Your'e not stuck in your head, your'e not lost in thinking" is not only Audio Lifestyle, it should also be a universal Lifestyle. A great audio system for sure will help immensly though. For me, my legendary LS3/5A BBC approved monitors, driven by the american 6L6GC tube in single ended fashion with tube phono and DHT preamps are my personal "holy audio grail". Nice one Jonathan. Fully agreed.
Even with my modest system there is no better way to clear my mind of ongoing trouble, right up there with a ride on the motorcycle. Feel sorry for those who don’t care about audio or even music, it’s importance has changed throughout my lifetime. 😎
Thank you Jonathan ... I enjoy these philosophical talks ... I hope to one day visit your studio and experience music where the entire ecosystem is tailored to give the best sound quality possible
It’s funny that you used Bill Evans. I love Bill’s work. It’s jazz with the element of a classical piano. I have designed my system around his music. 😆
Overall, a nice talk about style and it's etymology and how you can make listening to music a part of your lifestyle. However, the one thing I didn't like in this talk is pitting sound art (eg music) against visual art (eg paintings). While some might buy art to look cool to others, it's entirely possible that people might buy albums or listen to music because they think others think it's cool. In my view, visual art and sound art have similar value in that they portray a style and the intention of the artist. The only difference is the medium. I wouldn't dare say that one medium is better or more valuable than the other, but you can have a personal opinion about which you prefer - but that should be made clear, because if you make such statements, people who like art and music might take offence.
Jonathan, just say synergy. All your equipment just work together. Style/taste is in the eye if the beholder. Some peoples have taste in their ass, in which case they’re not buying your equipment. OMG has a certain aesthetic that reflects your personal and sophisticated taste. You are marketing your products/sound systems to wealthy and like minded individuals that are sophisticated audiophile’s with deeper pockets than mine. Lucky them, I’ll put my order in when I win lotto.
Sad that you think so. Jonathan is trying to wake folks up to the deepest appreciation of music as high art! Obviously you don't have even one foot on the lowest rung of that ladder😢
Nice one Bro. Keep up the blessed work. You are providing the right information at the right time.
Jonathan, you guys do really cool stuff and I’m glad to see the lengths you go to to make exceptional products.
Great chat

I always look forward to your videos, Jonathan. Thank you for sharing your wisdom.
I appreciate the effort in explaining who we are and what is the goal is.
First rate discussion. With a musical lifestyle the instrinsic value of music may be much better appreciated.

Buenas noches a todos 🙋♂🎼🎶🎵💖👍
One of the best non-sales pitches I've ever heard. I really want to hear his K3 Turntable one day.

I often wonder how Jonathan has time to run several companies and give so much effort to thinking so deeply on the subjects he talks about?
😁 I am lucky to have a great team of dedicated people working with me! Thank you for your comment,
Jonathan

Audio lifestyle NOT lifestyle audio.
Bullshit… the only thing is money….
Brutal 🤔
That would be very sad..... if it were true.
Humans that make money from their work has been around for quite some time.
And nobody forces you to give it to him.
Sad that you think so.
