| un-becoming an audiophile @dadork the word rich wasn't about a number but about an attitude. Guess what? People who have money are the most charitable! for one, I disagree with this sentence, I donate a much bigger percentage of my income than the most charitable ric... | |
| Is soundstage width a myth? I always wondered why people don't just buy 4 speakers for an amp that would separate the vocals and instruments. Possibly a stupid idea, but similar to the purpose of the subs? | |
| un-becoming an audiophile @vinylguy2016 I think there are two types: the high rollers with money no object and the hobbyists here. When the two mix (hobbyist ask a question, high rollers make costly suggestions/suggestions down a spending path or hobbyists comment on a "wh... | |
| Spending a month's salary @smodtactical 36th percentile :) | |
| Good old days we are all sitting on the curve of diminishing returns, in different spots. Think about what else you could do with the money, and what would make you happier, You have a great system and you obviously know how to enjoy music with or without car... | |
| Integrated Amp Shopping Decisions "your best bang for the buck" and "I have one for sale" sounds like a great deal because you know it firsthand. | |
| Integrated Amp Shopping Decisions I would advise against the Lintons as I had them, in a similar sized room, and they sounded chaotic. Not only that, it had no pluses, no musicality, decent vocals, clarity, depth, nothing. Maybe it was a lemon. | |
| un-becoming an audiophile @holeras1962 plays well into the psyche of the audiophile. It reminded me of a friend who owned two cafes and then opened a bar and she said: when people buy a coffee, they sit down and drink it. When they buy a beer or a glass of wine, they ... | |
| Pro-ject vs Rega @cd318 I wouldn't start with a P8 unless the rest up the system is up to it or the OP plans to upgrade everything to match the P8. You can't hear the difference between a P3 and a P3+ unless you have the speakers, phono amp, amp to carry that signal | |
| un-becoming an audiophile calling it a tantrum is like calling a women speaking loudly crazy. Name calling without addressing the substance is pretty childish.... | |
| Spending a month's salary netting 20K a month puts you somewhere in the 36th percentile of all of the active audiogon users... Oh, sorry what was the question? | |
| Pro-ject vs Rega I had Pro-Ject before and now the Rega 3. I think the Rega is a much simpler, sturdier design and build. I had quality issues with the Pro-Ject. I am happier with the Rega sound but that's very subjective | |
| un-becoming an audiophile it's pretty ironic when the admin removes your comment in which you say "they removed my comment". What are they so worried about? People finding out they remove comments? :) | |
| Bose 901 VI flat? @jwillox he just signed up. This is the place where B&O and Bose and Beat questions go to die (and nothing wrong with it, it's like asking the difference between breast and fly on swimswam) | |
| Used vs. new "it’s a tricky situation since I have no way of listening to either one to see what I like better." you can buy and keep them for 30 or 60 days and then return them with full refund. once you narrow down what would match your space, amp, sources... |
