| How Long Ago Since You Cried Listening To Music? I feel sorry for those who have never been brought to tears. I feel those that are brought to tears experience the music on a much higher level, are more involved with what the artist is trying to convey. Feeling more than just hearing. Those that... | |
| Best travel destinations for audiophiles You can take a train from the island of Sicily to most anywhere in Europe. The train drives right on to a ferry which connects to the mainland, then resumes it's trip. Trains are inexpensive, and the views are picture-book. An excellent idea for a... | |
| Do you buy new equipment because you are bored If I'm not getting into the system, I leave it off for a while, do other things. When I return after some days, it sounds involving again. I wouldn't say I was bored, just not into listening. I never buy because of boredom. I sometimes read these ... | |
| Heaven or Hell Check your barometer on one of those great nights when everything is sounding great. Check it again when it sounds flat. Just wondering..... | |
| Best steak to eat while listening to your rig? I don't eat while listening to the system. It makes too much noise and gets in the way of the sonics. That would be like "best movie to watch while your glasses are out for repair". Best steak to eat when one wants a steak? Ribeye for me. | |

| Terrible/Inappopriate songs ... "Are you ready Eddy?" from the Tarkus release by Emerson, Lake, And Palmer. | |
| What did you own in the 60's? Ha! Tonywinsc, that one put a smile on my face! | |
| Amy Winehouse.RIP I had formed opinions on some of the folks on this site, and find that they change as fast as these threads change. Too much anger and one-up-manship. I never cared for AW, but I respect the dead, junkie or not. | |
| unrelated to audio- digital camera buffs please What snofun3 said! When it's sunny out, the lcd screen is very difficult to see. Must have an optical viewfinder. | |
| NAD 3155 Pops when turned off My old Sansui did the same thing. I placed a couple high wattage resistors in the second set of speaker outs (B). My speakers are on "A". When I'm ready to turn it off, I lower the volume, switch to the "B" speakers that have the resistors and tur... |
