Your ONE all time favorite love song?
I hate everything about you, by Ugly Kid Joe. 
why do we argue?
Lacee wins! 
Insanely Expensive....and Worth Every Penny
Audiofun, what you are doing is not insane. I like you purchase things that I want to keep. You have expensive taste and that's a good thing. Bybee speaker bullets, Ogden wires, rubber coated bricks, little pebbles, dots on the wall etc. are entir... 
Insanely Expensive....and Worth Every Penny
Nothing. Never have never will. Expensive is ok if it's worth it, just not insanely. Why bother? You know you'll be sick of it SOONER or later. 
Waiting for Paypal
Usually I wait to ship until paypal posts to my account. Paypal cannot take money out of my money market even in the event that I am wrong since I set it up with my bank. I transfer the money from savings to money market then ship. I also tie a cr...

Get a 100x loop. Make sure you have lots of light from outside, and if you can perform the task outside. They are accurate, but you meed good eyes, and again, lots of light. Take your time, and you'll get it right. Good luck. 
LP12 owners: Anyone try the Tiger-Paw Khan yet?
I forgot to mention that I do hear a difference in things. Like tube and ss. Death to ss. I did just get a Linn Classik for when I want to listen for short periods of time and not fire up my tube system. It's a nice unit with lots of functions, bu...

Polk is experienced enough to know if something makes a difference or not. If you want to give Linn your money like a fool on things that won't make a difference go ahead. I'm smart enough not to that's all. Happy listening. 
Thoughts from THE Show, is $29k the new $10k?
Bad hearing? The sky is the limit when it comes to cost, and the speaker companies know that most Americans don't care how much something costs, just how much the monthly payments are. Maybe 90K speakers do sound better than 10K speakers, but they... 
why do we argue?
To some people two wrongs don't make a right, but three lefts do.

You still have to feed the best speakers made with good upstream to get the most out of them. I have an all tube system, and just hooked up a Linn Classik using the same wires to the same speakers and they sound different. Why? If speakers were th... 
why do we argue?
And we'd all be richer for it and buy tube equipment. 
Thoughts from THE Show, is $29k the new $10k?
I have that kind of money, and will never be foolish to pay that much. Nobody benefits but the sellers of these products. I've met many salesmen that could not afford to buy the exact items they sell, and most of them agree, the prices are not wor...

Rdavwhitaker knows about the world and the economy,common sense and not being foolish to be sucked in just because something has a high price tag on it. If companies could build items half as good as they can lie and market, maybe they could hones... 
Which monitor speaker to choose??
You have to give the Lipinski L707's a listen. I have them in a 12x 14 room and they also worked in a 24x34 room with a sub. I have an all tube system, but I just got a Linn Classik for times that I only want to listen for an hour or two. They sou...
