| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? I can’t imagine why someone would be vested in understanding the”sum of my (your) experience”. Thanks for lending credence to my comment that information on your system is worthless. | |
| Why Don’t You Post Your System on Your Profile? I don't post my system because that is worthless within the overall context of my life experience with audio and equipment. My first system was put together in 1970 and I've changed and upgraded multiple times. I worked in an audio store for two... | |
| Help me make sense of this - Midfi system sounding better hifi. 802 speakers want a lot of current to perform well and can present a difficult load for some amplifiers. I tried several amplifiers with my 802s and finally found one that will deliver the current required. You can easily tell when the amplifie... | |
| When CDs first came onto the market in 1982 ....... I think people were "blown away" by three things. First, the lack of surface noise; second, the extended play time and not having to flip the record to the second side to hear a whole album; and third, doing away with the customary cleaning ritua... | |
| To pricey I've owned a pair of 802 Nautilus speakers for 20+ years. The problem with the speakers is they require a lot of electrical current, which many amplifiers cannot supply. For the 800 series speakers, it has nothing to do with the Watt rating and ... | |
| Hot Rats With all of the discussion of drummers, I'm surprised no one has brought up the infamous "The Black Page #1" and the "easy teenage New York version," "The Black Page #2." Terry Bozzio talked about playing it and said, "...it just sat on my music ... | |
| Hot Rats I bought "The Mothers of Invention - Freak Out" in July of 1966 and became a Zappa listener for my entire life. Frank's music was always interesting and so perfectly rehearsed there was never a mistake. If you saw Frank in person, you would lea... | |
| What are we objectivists missing? Audio for audiophiles is like golf for golf enthusiasts. If you think there's a problem someone is willing to sell you a solution. If you don't know there's a problem, someone is willing to invent one - and sell you the solution. People have fu... | |

| Concerning high end audio names in new cars When I started driving, AM radios were an expensive option. I don’t care what manufacturer is putting their logo in automobiles at this point - anything is better than an AM radio with one speaker in the middle of the dash. I don’t expect a car sy... | |
| Sharing my experience with cables Sharing my experience, In 55 years of owning audio equipment, I've never heard a mind-altering difference if you swap out one quality cable with another. I have heard differences but nothing that ever made me say, "Damn, I just have to have one o... | |
| Tekton Design - New IRL Technology - Lifelike, Real, Immersive I’m always amazed at the responses on audio forums. As a group, you’d think that new technology or enhanced technology would be embraced. Instead, it seems the discussion devolves into a skeptical put-down contest to see who can make the most disp... | |
| The "British Invasion". A question for you old farts out there. We always had the contentious Beethoven or Shubert arguments about the latest music when I was growing up... | |
| Science that explains why we hear differences in cables? Hmmm...and I was so sure the sound of cables had to do with the Higgs boson coming into and then going out of existence as a back-beat in the music...oh...well... | |
