| I Was at a Funeral of An Audiophile... Move upstream, y'all and consider why Doug saw fit to comment in the first place. Have any of you attended a funeral that you felt inclined to write about on Audiogon? Were you concerned about the audiophile credentials of the deceased? Did his su... | |
| Best Audio Store Name? re:Sound | |
| I Was at a Funeral of An Audiophile... Judge not that thee be not judged. Too late for that, Douglas. Your tone is trite and catty in this post.Didn't MLK say something about being judged by the content of your character rather than the color of your skin -- or the price of your sound ... | |
| Is it good for a Krell to SIT for 3-5yrs Thanks for the heads up but I already knew enough to avoid Krell. There's so much other really wonderful stuff out there I can't be bothered with overpriced pretenders. | |
| Are audiophile speakers turn on for single women? Pdj - That sounds like a bit of a stretch. | |
| Oh how I wish Class D amps ... You can overcome the size/weight problem by switching to high efficiency speakers and using smaller A or A/B amplifiers. It is the need for enormous horsepower that requires you to own massive amplification. There are some pretty great 30 watt SS ... | |
| Is it good for a Krell to SIT for 3-5yrs Yes!!! Krell is not at its best unless properly aged in a "Krellar". This is similar to a wine cellar with controlled humidity and temperature. The serious audiophile keeps storage records and carefully monitors his stash so as to not mature the c... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Bose? Come on- the concept is absurd. The results are poor. Considering the fact that you keep introducing the same product to this thread over and over again, you set off the shrill shill alarm. Even if Bose made a credible product, your incessan... | |
| Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? My tuner is FM only and I go to bed at 9:00 P.M. so I can't help you out. Someone put you up to snide asides about your President. I was just guessing who it might have been that so inspired you.I think Obama likes music more than any President in... | |
| Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? Blaming Obama is a quick and easy way to demonstrate that you listen to AM radio and late night comedians. Why you would want that known I cannot imagine.As for multi-channel, sound effect laden, gimmick strewn reproduction, why not? It's as valid... | |
| Why not horns? Hxt1 - What else are you using with your horns to bring you that precarious balance? Most of the objections to the use of horns seem to be based on size and cost and you appear to have avoided both of those potential problems and come away very ha... | |
| Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? Armyscout knows how to shout but not how to think. The beholders and the critics are one and the same. Some of the critics agree with him and some do not. Everybody has an opinion and everyone is correct in stating what they each think. Upper case... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Sometime in the mid 1990s I met with John Dunlavy at his factory in Colorado Springs. To the best of my knowledge, they were never located in Utah. | |
| Why no heated gear? Drill a hole and use a block heater - this is especially beneficial with diesel amplifiers. | |
| "What's Your Best Price?" When you post an ad, you provide a price. If you also indicate "OBO" you are stating that you will accept less. We would all like to believe that we are immersed in a gentleman's pastime and therefore are above smarmy, crass concerns such as money... |
