I have turntables (2.5)...does 2 cassette decks = 1 R2R?
I have 3 subs. I even eat them occasionally....
Do I be 'kinda audiophile'?

Should people with no turntable or reel to reel be considered audiophiles?
Just like those driving a Porsche SUV can join PCA (digital audio fans can join Audiogon) but are certainly not Porschephiles unless they also own a coupe (Panamera owners I guess gets a pass here).

glupson...I take you seriously. Really.... I hope I'm taken seriously.....but, there is the range of Serious that gets applied to one in a given circumstance.... Serious as a heart attack. Serious threat. Seriously insane. Seriously dense. Etc.....(seriously....) Like, " If impulses turn into a continuous something, do they need some kind of converter?" Yup, that grey mush inside ones' skull. Unique enough that noboldy hears and comprehends anything in exactly the same fashion. To the point that, even when we agree on anything, it's still a subject for scrutiny on a 'nit-pick' level.... "Hell is other humans." *L* |
sokogear, then you don't remember (or hadn't occupied the planet yet...not your fault...) the 'car record players'. Yes, for LP's.! You'd insert the disc much like a CD. Never had the opportunity to disect one, but the 'tone arm' (or whatever it was...) likely ran @ 10 grams and Still would skip and mistrack unless one was on a road smooth as a bowling alley (i.e., Rare)....Visions of vinyl curling up from the 'stylus', likely more like a sharp nail.... That would likely get 'attached' to the 'reverb unit'...a wonderful spring affair that would give a yield a memorial 'Boing!' that would last a few seconds.... Only vaguely 'listenable' on the same 'bowling alley' road... Late '50's~early '60's 'car audio was...weird...then came the 8 track cassettes....Tape stopping mid-selection....extract cart to find the mechanism had become a acetate pasta nightmare.... Ah....the Gawd Aweful Old Daze.....(there is NO 'emoji' for this)... @boxer12.....that's being a 'bi-phile'....(no gender reference).... #378? glupson....and then there's MC Hammer.....'2 legit 2 quit!'....(did anyway)...and it's all 'shades of gray' mush to me....🤪 looscanon....(pun intended) from the PacPunk....one is what one eats....and I dream of wires.....do digital direct...no analogies for analog, livin' live livedly.....;) *chaump*chaump* Those who expect sensiblity on a late Fry/early Sat must have grown quietly quiescent on the settee', dateless despondent desperados....looser losers... @thecarpathian....there is a difference....;) It's Free....only a dollar.... GeoK, there is not foothold, lost 'n spaced....some get a grip, some just get the grippe'... I had to make my own friends....that's wye they're a bit disjointed.... |
Beefheart was interviewed by Rolling Stone years ago. Had a great quote,"There are only 40 people in the world and 38 of them are hamburgers"
