The more people seemingly become connected through the web the more in fact they become disconnected to the point of virtual isolation. If it is a progress they want they may have it and see where it leads.
Yeah, younger generation are becoming kind of The Borg, collective being from Star Trek: The Next Generation. They wish to consume and assimilate everything in their path to "increase the quality of life". Individuality is being eroded to the point of non-existing. We, the people of the old ways, will resist as much as we can for as long as we can. We may lose but it is going to be a good fight. Death to the digital. And to the cell phones along with computers. God help us all.
New ideas about what? $1000 on headphones is either too much or too little, what a waist of money. The best value is tuned reel to reel deck connected to, say, vintage Rowland electronics, playing through a number of good vintage speakers. Those kids should come over here and learn something. Especially before spending big.
Well, I think this thread is kind of proof that at least this particular forum is not quite dead. I have some complaints too, so what? The biggest one is that for whatever reasons many very knowledgeable old timers rarly post if ever. Showing off your equipment is not a sin, but if it is the only thing that you do, yeah, it does become boring and a little irritating.
