| Who else here is frugal? That my friend is truly awesome!And I believe I’m starting to see the error of my ways. Thank you! | |
| Who else here is frugal? You have to drop some Serious coin in this hobby in order to learn how to be frugal. | |
| What is wrong with audiophiles? My assertion is that when we stop learning, we tend to stop living...even if it's to fight something that otherwise might seem important to us at the time. Go your own way as you like, but that's maybe the best benefit of my own experience in this... | |
| What is wrong with audiophiles? Don't know that I can accept your premise, honestly. I can appreciate that some audiophiles seem to me to be irrationally or persistently overbearing when it comes to what others report hearing firsthand, but that's always really been the case. Ev... | |
| What is wrong with audiophiles? Yep, that's what I'm sayin'. | |
| What is wrong with audiophiles? If there are any people here on Agon who are publicly identifying as a "non-audiophile" and are arguing counter to audiophiles here, then it has flown under My radar...Maybe someone can direct me to where that was specifically going on...I suppose... | |
| What is wrong with audiophiles? The only definition of a "non-audiophile" I have is of those people who label **themselves** as non-audiophiles..you know, significant others, or those who'll tell you they've never tried to assemble their first system. etc.Of course, just because... | |
| What is wrong with audiophiles? I think you may forever be struggling with the "what's wrong with audiophiles" question as long as you may be reluctant to just kind of chill and go back and look at the underlying psych (or is it just human nature) of what non-audiophiles maybe a... | |
| CD sound quality: original pressings vs regular remaster vs MFSL, etc I suspect what the mastering/remastering issue comes down to is not so much a technical decision as it is a business decision. Like the way Rhino seems to treat the Stevie Nicks catalog, for example. Lots of earlier issues of SN or Fleetwood Mac b... | |
| CD sound quality: original pressings vs regular remaster vs MFSL, etc I like both Blue-spec and MoFi ok, as a rule. I tried comparing the Blue-spec and Mofi versions of Billy Joel's Turnstiles CD.The Blue-spec was Wayy open sounding...like way more than most. The vocals sounded ok, but not like the original vinyl ba... | |
| Go Active Crossover or Upgrade existing XOs? To the OP, it's a complicated question with no single, clear answer as you can tell from the replies. I happen to prefer digital active (since I like the experimenting) provided you can fall back on some kind of power treatment to ward off any dig... | |
| First order/Time Phase-Coherent speakers discussions Look, I'm not out to dog you to hell and back. I'm not asking you to change your style or anything...just try to be just a Little more respectful of everyone else's point of view...maybe even if you don't entirely agree...maybe offer a civil but r... | |
| First order/Time Phase-Coherent speakers discussions The way you treated me I could expect, my problem was with the way you treated everyone else here.Like about everyone else in this thread before me has figured out and gone (where are they now), you're long on making a splash and short on contribu... | |
| First order/Time Phase-Coherent speakers discussions Well, I suppose I'm tired already of the ramblings of an 'educated' man who can't think his way back down to earth long enough to answer his own question...ya got me there I guess. My hat's off to you, if you can fly as high on yourself as you cla... | |
| First order/Time Phase-Coherent speakers discussions "You can’t be so desperate, can you? Are you saying "stupidity" is what you’re waiting to save you?"Uhh...No. That refers to your wanting to berate or challenge anyone who is not answering your questions, particularly the unanswerable (what does i... |
