Why no Virtual System pics??


I’m surprised that not more people have pictures off their set-ups... there are very few contributors, some regular contributors, some long time members, with zero pictures of their systems..
Why do you think that is?  Are they worried that someone is going to steal their stereo because they see pictures of it?  Or are people ashamed of their systems?  
I don’t get it.  It’s much easier to understand where someone is coming from when you see their setup!

post some pictures people!!!  Sheesh


It’s like showing up to the basket ball court with no ball.  Going to the ski slopes, sittin in the lodge, talking about how awesome the powder is with no ski’s.

But B Limo every day is a car show here in coastal California:-) in the condo garage ( 30 cars ) there are 2 Ferrari, 1 Bentley, 1 4S, 1 vintage Mercedes 380
convert, 1 Jag, a herd of Benz iron, 2 Lexus, an M3 BMW, Z3

sometimes I just go down there and wander with a margarita 
I saw Al Holbert loop it at Mid Ohio.... that dude can drive....

i used to get Pizza in the 328 Grey market as the junior guy at the stereo shop... my nickname for that car was “ Flatbed “...

I think right now a 356 is looking like as good a place as any to park and drive some cash..
Yet again, full circle - blame it on the Mothers - her sin was selling the 67 Mali SS 
The wrench on it yourself $$$ Savings  applies to most of the fun toys... boats and airplanes make cars seem plebiscite...

until of course your numbers matching is overrun by ineptitude- knowing one’s limitations is sometimes important 
For example somebody here mentioned the venerable 512, certainly not something I would do a valve job on.... any garden variety Keith Black is more my  style...
Yes rarity and buy right, always a mantra !!!

my 996 X-50 sticker was $152 bought Tacoma 2.5 years in for $72
ouch for somebody....
Uber - I became aware of the 914 in 1976 when it could navigate the hairpin S in front of the local HS at full song... my recollection is the Trans AM just about hit the building.... that led me down a path, several really including of course Lotus ( really nothing ticks a P car driver off more than to be bested  by A lotus, auto cross, you name it...
but yes, it was for a time popular to cram a Chevy small block in there...
I am actually contemplating a P car for down here - people actually drive them... 2.0 parked in front the other day w surfboard out the targa... how fun

At least here in California, water cooled P car values still sink like a rock unless it is very rare... 3 years old, low miles, half of MSRP.... kinda like esoteric stereo gear...

air cooled is an entirely different matter...
Somehow yet again racing left off the list  but then I am guessing you have been passed by a 914-6, crossbred muttly that it is.... Or worse a Cayman... or horror of horrors a PDK

God I hope I plugged in the Clarity last night....

Ever now and then I play Al Hirt : Carnival of Venice - brings back memories....
Important and it’s your thread - take it where you will !!!!
pretty fantastic Mom !!!!!
B_Limo my Parents got me hooked when I  was 4 with some gear pictured here... and Young Persons Guide to the Orchestra...

The 911 does not attract the scorn the prancing horse does.... but there are still A holes the world over...


@tvad I agree, iF great photos were everything, fast food cheeseburgers would rule the world !!!!
Three of My n systems can be Found here on Audiogon... hard to keep the “ vintage “ system up to date, but I try....

When live performances come back, I will post up the mobile recording rack setup in a venue...
