| Are you Guys Rich or What!? Thanks, KT.... Dan, I think you may have misunderstood me. In the 80's there was an extraordinary amount of money not being spent, but being held and manipulated by greedy manipulating, S.O.B.'s, can you say "Boesky"? I never saw people sleeping o... | |
| Are you Guys Rich or What!? It is always relative. Anyone who thinks any amount is "too much" is only putting their own bias into their opinion. I have one rich friend who has not one, but two "cost is no object" dream systems, (one for the city and one for the country). The... | |
| Are you Guys Rich or What!? to Axomoxa, I should have added ... although well intentioned. Tubegroover, as I said earlier, we all bring our own biases into this issue. Maybe some rich people are status motivated, but so are many non rich people. In the case of my friend, he ... | |
| Are you Guys Rich or What!? I seem to remember a great line from Bruce Springsteen, "all that heaven will allow". More money simply allows you to do more for everyone, including yourself. Spending money is always good for the economy. Behind every high end product is a store... | |

| Liked the Nautilus 805 but found better? Gthirteen, When I was shopping for speakers I prefered the Audiophysic Tempo, and the Aeriel Model 6 to the 805's, but they were $800-1400 more expensive and they did not have enough bass either. I would not be happy with those speakers without a ... | |
| Liked the Nautilus 805 but found better? I would either get the 803's second hand, or do what I did, get a REL sub. It integrates perfectly and is every bit as musical as the B&W's, thanks to its Neutrik Speakon connector, which allows you to connect from the speaker outs instead of ... | |
| Best speaker for rock music I second the opinion of Cornfedboy. The Avalon's are the best I have heard with all types of music, and rock is no exception. They do it all, soundstage, detail, accurate, powerful bass, realism, and a touch of magic. All the better if you have go... | |
| help with power cord sorry about the typo Ejlif. | |
| help with power cord Eljif, was your H. Tech. power cord properly broken in? It sometimes takes a good 100-200 hours before many H.Tech cables really strut their stuff. Granted, I would probably agree with your assessment if I was listening with you, but my H.T Pro-11... | |
| anyone heard sony s9000es Yes, but it costs 50% less. | |
| Rock? money down the drain? If you ever try one sip of Chateau D'Yquem (at around $ 250 a bottle), you know you have just tasted something extraordinary. Of course a very good bottle can be found for $20, if you know what you are doing. That does not make the $250 bottle wor... | |
| Rock? money down the drain? My friend has a state of the art system, and every type of music sounds awesome, and when he plays rock, it really rocks. Nothing like hearing a great rock recording through powerful tube amps (VAC), and great speakers, (Eidelons). If you've got t... | |
| Which sub is better for audio I own the REL Strata III. I am a former "sub-hater". The REL changed my mind . It really blends with your mains perfectly and avoids any of the "boom boom" you usually get. My priorities are Stereo first, and 5.1 second, so is REL's. Looks good as... |
