HiFi satisfaction and/ or Musical enjoyment My Bose Wave Radio sounds great. And I bet it kicks the ass of your $200k system. | |
HiFi satisfaction and/ or Musical enjoyment 25 X the new/fave setup (valued @ around $8K) would be $200,000.00 or more. @dekay , I am the odd man out on this one, because given the choice, without even hearing both systems, I would take the 200+k system as opposed to the 8k system. But... | |
Amp Stands - Wood or Stone Wood is more of a natural musical material IMO.. Like a violin or guitar, it should resonate like wood does for a more natural sound It is possible that is a consideration . . . I am not sure. However, except for speaker cabinets, most other co... | |
The Museum vs. Galleries Back in the ’90s and early ’00s I listened to this great public radio station (91.3 WYEP) all of the time because they were usually playing music that was out of the mainstream. (When I do turn the dial there these days, it seems as if they have p... | |
Is the Cary SLP-05 still relavant? If any of you guys are still around, help me out here please. I'm a little confused on gain matching. The gain is high, 24db with balanced outputs, on the SLP-05. What is the ideal amplifier gain, or gain range for optimum performance match? @c... | |

Oh my goodness! @mrdecibel Mr D hit it out of the ballpark about dedicated listening rooms. Without it you are shooting darts without a target trying to achieve sound nirvana with equipment alone. I guess it's okay to listen to the room instead of the "perfo... | |
The Museum vs. Galleries When I get in the mood for something, it is something I am familiar with. I don’t stream; however, I went through several years in my life when I was buying CDs all the time, and I have CDs I haven't listened to for a long time and that I forgot ... | |
HiFi satisfaction and/ or Musical enjoyment @immatthewj it also feels like someone coming into a bar, full of drunks and telling them about his last AA meeting and the benefits of spring water. I got a chuckle out of that one, @grislybutter . Thanks. | |
HiFi satisfaction and/ or Musical enjoyment I apologize if I shared my experience that mirrors one of the other 8.2B people on the planet. Maybe we should not have public forums because everything has been touched on in the past. No need to apologize. It’s not like anyone is forcing me t... | |
HiFi satisfaction and/ or Musical enjoyment It seems as if this ground has been trod upon before. . . . | |
Oh my goodness! Reasonable money will have a different meaning for each individual. +1 @russ69 . | |
When I listen to my system....... @immatthewj ....for yours unruly, it only made me worse and more demanding of being ’closer to the edge’.... That’s interesting, @asvjerry . Back in those days (and two or three years ago I practically quit drinking, so I guess I’ll include dri... | |
When I listen to my system....... Back when I was drinking and/or indulging in the recreational use of illicit and licit drugs while I was listening, my standards were different. |
