Opinions on Land Rover LR2
The Porsche is far bigger and more expensive. If we wanted a car that big, we might consider the Toureg. I think VW makes some very nice cars.

Schubert - As to your first comment, I haven't checked out the car yet, so I might end up agreeing with you after further research. BTW, do you have any experience with these vehicles, or is this just a personal bias? As to your second comment - a...

@Bojack - you shouldn't care what kind of car I drive. I care, as I have to pay for it and drive it. @Mlawtm - We've had a set of Townecraft for over 30 years and they are incredible. Not a lifetime product, but a multi-lifetime product. Quite pri...

The Evoque is very nice, but I'm old-fashioned. I like a vehicle with good visibility. So many designers don't seem to give a damn whether you can see. Maybe it's me. 
XO-3 se vs K01
There's quite a bit posted about these two players on the Arthur Salvatore site, if you're interested. Search around the site - there's more than is in this link. http://www.high-endaudio.com/RECENT.html#Ref

So let's take a poll - Have you ever bid on a MD product? Even as low as a dollar. Better yet, do you own any MD products? Someone must be buying them. I admit to once bidding on something. Perhaps the pebbles? OK, I admit it. See - the sky didn't... 
Cables more hype than value?
Bring back some Dots for me, if you don't mind.

CD player with Vandersteen and Conrad Johnson
Ear Acute or Doge6. Both excellent choices for the vinyl-lovers, IMO. Both available on A'gon, BTW. 
Cables more hype than value?
The ones who get it right, IMO, are those who buy what they can actually hear and don't buy what they can't. 
Good amp for Tekton lore s speakers?
I have recommended the BADA 225 hybrid integrated many times. Very nice inner detail with enough power to turn it up if you like. About 1200 at Pacific Valve with 30 day money back. [url]http://www.pacificvalve.us/BadaDC-225.html[/url]

Geoff, we love you. There is probably not a person here who hasn't at least placed a bid on one of your products. Keep doin' what you're doin'. 
$$$ vs music enjoyment
Vicdamone - wow, you seem to know a lot of musicians. 
Trip to NYC, What to do
The NYC audio shops are no places for tire-kickers. Have a steak at Peter Lugers, get some Chinese food at 69 Bayard Street in Chinatown, have lunch or dinner at Gotham Bar and Grill and then go home. There's nothing much else of value here. IMO. 
SHELTER - 501II CARTRIDGE on Technics 1200 Table
According to mathematical formulas, bumblebees can't fly. The Technics arm is not exactly the last word in precision engineering, so I think the better path is to find out what cartridges people have been using in that arm to good effect, rather t...
