How many plays can you get out of a good record?

Is blasphemous Music ok?
...blasphemous music.....*hmmm* One could say that most of the concerts I've attended were such, even though few touched on religions, religious subjects, and those involved in that. Half naked freaks, painted with cabalistic symbols or clothing... 
For those of you who had spent over hundred thousand dollars for your sound system.
I'd happily wager I've spent less on my current 'system' than many of you have dropped on just one item, be it speakers (likely one of the pair), a pre, or even your DAC..... ...and I'm just as pleased with it as you are with yours. Just shows t... 
Magico M9 a ton of weight and a million dollar price tag $750,000
@quincy ..multiple crossovers, or a custom one.... If you can afford the speakers, you could easily opt for that....but I suspect that they already have that covered. If they didn't, it's because you didn't want that.  And you'd have crossed you...

@esarhaddon , fan of PVC foamed sheet stock here as well.  One has to treat it with a certain amount of care, since it will dent and scratch.... But I doubt there's many that don't beat up their speakers on a regular basis, anyway.  Years ago, JB... 
Storage of other speakers in the room, shorting them while not in use? Myth or true?
@nonoise ...not around me, you won't. I do have some standards, and nude 'philes is just weird.  And only makes sense if one is a bass addict of preposterous proportions.....and not in just sheer girth. "...land line phones..."  What about my ce... 
Speaker Questions
At this point, buy what your budget and ears like.  There is plenty of time to expand ones' preferences as your time and disposable cash allow later.... ;) (Imho....the concept of cash being 'disposable' is rather obnoxious, as is most other expl... 
can I connect 2 sources directly to power amp (one XLR one RCA)
Never worked, but tried quite awhile back....use a 6in/6out switched patch box to cure the problem.  All rca, but that's what gender benders are for.  
Why is Audiogon checking my browser?

What Is Most Important?
...having rolled enough blunts over time, a bowl (or X) keeps the ennui away... ;) Rather roll on with the sounds....*G*  
How long should speaker cables be?
Long enough to reach....oh. Wrong 'cable'...the male/female threw me.... Interconnects can be as long as you kneed it to be.  Works for me...;) *tic*  
Something on top of a speaker=okay?
@nonoise ..."....award for Best Link of Late goes to...."  Congrats 'n thanx. ;) (Gawd knows what he'll post...*Evil L*) @theaudioamp ....Fact Cheque:  Wasn't Marvin of The Heart of Gold what you meant?  ;)  It's ok....Bots are becoming so *coug...
