Arthur Salvatore WoW comments??
Been watching this thread for a while now and highly amused at that, seeing the boys at play. Pity that one after the other seemed to be leaving. Audiophiles are serious people obviously, with the possible exception of those two depraved Europeans... 
Reviewing the Reviewers
Tubegroover and Detlof, agreed in principle. You seem to be seasoned audiophiles, but what about the young, the newbees? They will need guidance by necessity, will avidly read the mags...until finally they too will feel betrayed. You Detlof, proba... 
How much does your system retail for?
Oops, we worked it out this weekend and came to the embarassing result of topping Albert's system by about $65000. It has also been a work in progress since about 35 years! We also managed to make some excellent deals, so the actual cost is less.

Sorry Jeffloistarca, but I agree with Bruce and evened out some of the negative votes, he got. This site, in my opinion is not for peeing contests but for exchanging knowledge and helping each other. 
I am stunned
Hello, I gave everyone two points to even out that ridiculous backsniping. Great thread Liguy! 
Musicality" in a system? What IS that ?
Thanks you Frogman for putting the inherent meaning of my post into intelligible words. I think you hit the nail squarely on its proverbial head and yes Detlof, you describe very well how a "system" can be evolved until it is approaching "musicali...

Musicality" in a system? What IS that ?
About musicality: Deutsche Grammophone has released all of the Beethoven symphonies with Abado and the Berlin Philharmonics. The recordings are just as horrible as the performance of most of the sympnonies are breathtaking. Abado and the Berliners... 
To Sub or not to Sub...?
....and so unfortunatedly is Detlof about setting these critters up. So A.L. beware.......
