| How could High End audio be improved? Oz and Viggen, thank you for your well thought out responses.Viggen, I disagree that the mind has not itself become objectified by the western project. Science - ratio-empiric method applied with assumption that all truth derives from matter - fir... | |
| Real Standup Men Audiogon Members to the Rescue A little off for a favor isn't a negative thing, its the same thing a manuf would get from a retailer so he's not out anything. That's capitalism at its best, at least as I understand it, and, assumably, in retail, wherever it is.Anyway then, nice... | |
| Real Standup Men Audiogon Members to the Rescue Someone hand me a hanky... :)Seriously though, its nice to hear a nice story. More of them and the hiend wouldn't, on occasion, go so low.So, Mike, what do you think about some new Tenors at a, ummmm, nice accomodation price.... | |
| How could High End audio be improved? Oh Viggen, don't rain on the beauty parade, especially if what you offer is a radically subjective justification!Really though, yes, people have different opinions - I think we are aware of that - but that fact itself doesn't translate into the pr... | |
| How could High End audio be improved? Hello Ohn. No, being drawn to beauty in the hiend does not mean that if you are not in the hiend that you can't see beauty. However, if you are drawn to beauty in general, then I think you would also be drawn to the beauty of music, and, therefore... | |
| If i had the money..... OK Sean. If you get then I'd like to hear your comments. | |
| VTL Service ?? Zaike, it was a special order unit. Thought yours might be one. It sounds better than EL34 and especially 6550 units. If you ever send it in for service, you might want to consider the mod. Ask around. | |
| VTL Service ?? Zaikes, that's a nice amp. I've recommended it before and a friend of mine had one so I'm familiar with it. Do you have the 805 output tube version?On the breakdowns, old VTL not so good, new VTL as good as the rest.I'd say that the manuf is still... | |
| If i had the money..... Well, I'm sure that these are very fine SS amps, and for the money - yes, for SS the stats do say something, and Bob Crump is upfront, skilled and not one for propaganda.But even given that, Sean, I think you've gone off the reservation here with ... | |
| How could High End audio be improved? OK, so then how do we, mechanically, so to speak, get people to appreciate beauty in music more/deeper, or even see that it exists? I mean, if being drawn to the hiend is synonomous with being drawn to feel more beauty in music - and assumably, we... | |
| How could High End audio be improved? OK, toss away... | |
| How could High End audio be improved? 6ch, you should tell us who you think is not being a "friend" to detlof and why.You once had to apologize here and I said to you it was courageous to do so, and even allowed you to do so without apologizing specifically, which is what you should h... | |
| Ok this will be a good thread. Jeez guys, didn't anyone read my first post above. You are both right and are both wrong - that's why everything each one of you says is true sounds true enough. What is most important changes with context, namely, system sophistication in terms o... | |
| How could High End audio be improved? Oh yea, on mechanics. You know what "mechanic" really gets people going, really makes them want to join the hiend?Hearing people like twl talk about turntables, or detlof about his stacked Quads. Its us.Just keep talking to people with passion - t... | |
| How could High End audio be improved? Here (hear), I'll call him.6ch, 6ch (possibly someone might dare think, six channel audio), come home, come home, time for supper! Sorry, 6chhc6, just couldn't help myself... :0)Hi detlof, hope you are well...yes, their direct opposites too. Some ... |
