| Hi-Fi Lo-Fi " I still believe, at " retail "pricing, your gear that was acquired, was over 20 K, based on my familiarity with the gear"That could be true. I was never able to find actual prices for when some of the components were new.For what its worth, I'm ... | |
| Hi-Fi Lo-Fi MrD., first I think I’d have to modify the estimate on the system I inherited. I think it probably cost around $15k, maybe a little more. That would have been in early 2000’s dollars.So to answer your question, based on the adjusted cost of around... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Black Keys - Thickfreakness. | |
| Hi-Fi Lo-Fi I would certainly consider Audiogon for a high end purchase but when I was putting all this together I did not find a lot of low end stuff here....which makes sense of course. | |
| Hi-Fi Lo-Fi Thanks Geoff. | |
| Hi-Fi Lo-Fi Thanks. And I don't want anyone to get me wrong here. I'm not knocking high end audio. I'm not even knocking people who just like the super expensive equipment just because that's what they're into.Its all okay.But if someone says, 'wow, your home... | |

| Great sounding/recorded albums Not on any audiophiles radar, much less the vinyl crowd, but I just recently bought the Teskey Brother's Run Home Slow new album on vinyl. I don't know anything about vinyl and the vinyl part of my system is basic to say the least....old Sony dire... | |
| Great sounding/recorded albums Mark Knopfler's Tracker. Mostly traditional music, real instruments, well produced. Really shows off a system.I'm not sure what you mean by "over produced" but if you want to show off your system Steely Dan's Aja is hard to beat. Their Two Against... | |
| Two New Albums I just checked and it does not do it on side 2. Strange. | |
