The magic of outdoor listening
Headphones are great too in order to cancel noise pollution and listen to tunes at the same time.  Key here is to have as many wayd to enjoy tunes as possible.  
The magic of outdoor listening
Yep, agree.  My friends, family and myself all have awesome outdoor setups.  Yard work during the morning and day, beers on the deck in the afternoon with music throughout.  My brother uses Klipsch KlF20’s outside, one buddy uses Infinity Beta 50’... 
Why do folks spend more on electronics than on speakers?
Im with Ross B on this one.  From my experience, if you have a really dolid front end then many speakers will sound good.  I’ve also found that more $ doesn’t always equate to better sound.  You can get exceptionally good speakers for $2-$5k.  If ...

Salk Veracity ST Speakers
I had veracity ht2-tl’s and lkked them but was not overly impressed either.  Seas excel drivers always sound smooth as do the raaltweeters.  Salk are really pretty too.   For the $ though, I personally would do something else.  Not to deter you ... 
After years of separates, I'm going integrated. Anyone else do the same?
I loved my Belles Aria Integrated and replaced that with a Kinki EX-M1.  The Kinki is pretty awesome with some different op amps.  Im going to be changing ghe 5 fuses next.  Its really a beautiful amp outside and in!  
I met this guy in a hotel room....
Fritz is an awesome dude, he really is.  He promised something to me and then when things changed on his end, he still kept his promise to me.  Nobody else in the audio industry has gone out of their way for me as much as Fritz (and Paul from CLea... 
Speaker positioning: why do audiophiles neglect this so much?
“A good way to check for that is to listen to a mono recording, and mono recording will do.”… agree.  If you have a bluesound node, you can go into the settings and select mono signal.    
Speaker positioning: why do audiophiles neglect this so much?
LoL @ebm .  Im only limited by my rooms and wallet.  I don’t give a s… about anything else.  Great sound is my number 1 priority.  Form follows function but it can be beautiful too.    
Magnepan LRS Support Group?!
The LRS’s displaced some Salk Sound Veracity HT2-TL’s in my system.  The Salks measured incredibly well and sounded pretty nice!  The LRS’s were my preference though.  I never measured the Magnepans response and they could have measured poorly but... 
Magnepan LRS Support Group?!
I just sold my pair.  The guy who bought ghem placed his order in November and got sick of waiting.  If you can swing a pair of 1.7i’s used, do that!  The LRS’s are awesome…you’ll want more, and more is 1.7i.  
Interesting comment on Bose Speakers.....
Lol @dadork , yeah, Im not proud if ghe Yanni thing either 😂😂  
Interesting comment on Bose Speakers.....
@roxy54 , Times were a bit different 32 years ago!  Im sure kids drive trucks, tractors and 4 wheelers all the time on farms still today. My nephew flew a plane his first time at 13 and will have his pilots license when he graduates college at age... 
Burson Audio Rant…
So Burson offered to give me a refund but honestly, they were probably right really. Shipping is going to be $20 (+)?  Ona $100 item its not worth it.  They said they’d give me a 30% off coupon so ai’ll snag 4 Vivid V6’s, save $50 and be a happy c... 
Fedex and Ups Damage thread
Im not shipping anything anymore every again, never ever.  I had them jack up an Anthem I225, a Kinki Studio Ex-M1, and I had them pick up a pair of $3500 speakers to return to sender that went mia on the tracking system, but thank god they actual...
