| Audio Forums, On-line Store Fronts, and the Art-of-Deception jmc, I was curious about your thoughts???? Thoughts about what? Work? Music? Women? Golf? Religion? Politics? Environment? | |
| Audio Forums, On-line Store Fronts, and the Art-of-Deception @wattsperchannel , if you are successful cleaning up all the corruption in the forums, I suggest that you take your talents to Washington DC then, as there is a rigged system, full of corruption that could use some fixing too. | |
| Audio Forums, On-line Store Fronts, and the Art-of-Deception @wattsperchannel , I understand that it's not all about money for you or me. That doesn't mean that no one cares about money.Anywhere that you have people willing to throw money around, you will find people scrambling, even through unscrupulous me... | |
| Audio Forums, On-line Store Fronts, and the Art-of-Deception There are so many hobbyist that just want to share personal views and experiences with out the underhandedness. In other words: There are so many nice fish here.Jeez, I wonder why them sharks won't just go away and leave us fish alone. ;^) | |
| Confused: Should I Upgrade Cables or Amp first? jmcgrogan2-- yes, more bass would indeed be nice. The bass I have is well defined and relatively quick; it just doesn't extend down very far, as you have no doubt surmised. Finding a place for a sub in our livingroom is the hard part (WAF). ... | |
| Audio Forums, On-line Store Fronts, and the Art-of-Deception Lots of sharks in the water. There is anywhere where money can be had.It would be nice if all dealers identified themselves, but Audiogon does not force them to, and actually will help cover their tracks for them if anyone calls them on it, as Aud... | |
| What's going on with the audio market? I would have loved that when I was 16 in 1991.So what did you have at 28? Thanks.Let's see, so late in 1987 I discovered a small company called Reel to Real Designs through a small ad in the back of Audio magazine. They had a speaker out called ... | |
| Confused: Should I Upgrade Cables or Amp first? @stuartk 50 wpc should be plenty of power for a 91 db speaker, assuming that the room is not unusually large and/or listening levels unusually loud.Maybe what you are missing is a little bass? Maybe adding a subwoofer to the mix? Otherwise I think... | |
| Confused: Should I Upgrade Cables or Amp first? @jafant , Jadis? Where do you see Jadis? He has Jolida, not Jadis.I would ask first, what do you feel you are missing? If you are happy with the sound, then just enjoy the music and spend the money on software, a vacation, or maybe a turntable. | |
| What's going on with the audio market? jmcgrogan2 what was your system at 16? I ask because I had a complete load of crap at that age... @infection , as I said earlier, it was my first system, but I wouldn’t call it serious audio. I didn’t get into serious audio until I was 28 years ... | |
| Dennis Had Inspire Fire-Bottle SET amp review Actually Dennis Had’s Fire Bottle line are SEP amps not SET amps. Single Ended Pentode design, as opposed to Single Ended Triodes.That said, I am very happy to hear that the Fire Bottle lit your fire. It’s always nice to find that *magic* combinat... | |
| What's going on with the audio market? @dgarretson , right you are. It seems that it is not a problem with your math skills so much as it is a problem with my reading skills. I read your second number to be how many years have you seriously exercise your purchasing power on audio, not ... | |
| Cartridge for VPI Classic 3 SE Ortofon Cadenza Bronze, slightly over your budget, but you may be able to find a dealer who'll sell one for $2K. | |
| What's going on with the audio market? @dgarretson , you might want to check your math. So between us, we have 54 man years of active purchasing, with 4 to go. We’re 93% finished with heavy buying. I add 27 and 35 and get 62 with 4 to go, 94%.I see a LOT of folks started seriously exe... |
