| Ever feel like a "low dollar" customer that your dealer doesn't think worth their time? I think that people/businesses/sales associate don't know they suck until someone tells them they suck. I will never forget about 12 years ago a nurse came up to me and said "Do you know that you have been a real ahole lately!". Changed my outlook... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Savoy Brown - Looking In | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Camel - Moonmadness | |
| What was your most disappointing album purchase? The Who - Live at Leeds. Just a terrible production. Maybe the actual show sounded better but the LP is just awful. I feel bad because my wife is from Leeds and I want to like it but just can't. | |
| Hahahahahahahaha WHAT ARE THE ODDS??? I think I am missing the subtleties here. | |
| What the heck do these terms mean? Poetry, perfect. Sometimes you get it and sometimes you don't. I feel that organic thing sometimes. Other times I think it is just way too pedestrian. Crazy thing it is the same recording through the same system. Sometimes my brain is in one frame... | |
| How many people here generally buy used? TT, phono preamp, speaker cables, interconnects, power cords all new. Amp, CD transport, DAC, receiver, speakers, subwoofers all used. Why? Don't know. That is how it played out. It was time to make a move and that is where I ended up. Could have ... | |
| It happened again tonight I appreciate @millercarbon opening up about a very transcendental experience. We have all had those moments listening. I get that feeling listening to Camel's Lunar Sea every time. I don't know why but the rhythm just takes me someplace else. Just... | |
| Tweaks - An Honest Discussion The most audibly meaningful "tweak" I have done was adding a power cord to my integrated. I think it was around $600. Far from outrageous. I have added numerous components over the years, each of which provided improvement, but nothing as distinc... | |
| End of the World system GIK. Too funny! | |
| Subwoofer insight. Just watched that entire lecture. Wasn't sure if that was Earl Geddes' theory or @ millercarbon's theory? If I have to get a microphone and other equipment to start measuring all of this then I am in trouble. Are there any professionals out ther... | |
| How do you sort your LPs? Alphabetically starting with the first letter towards the side facing me. Could be the title of the album or the name of the artist. Therefore listening is completely random. I guess I could just put them all in randomly and would be the same effe... | |
| Subwoofer insight. I’m so sorry ieales but I don’t understand what you are trying to say. Read it multiple times but still don’t get it. Any chance you could say it without the subliminal messaging? | |
| Has anyone else auditioned something that really was terrible? "Jump on Bose asap dude!!" is a completely uncalled for response from EBM. Take it elsewhere. Should have been removed by the mods. Unnecessary harmful commentary. | |
| Subwoofer insight. Thanks Brad, easier said than done. I have often said to myself the same question. I know no one whom participates in these activities so borrowing is not an immediate option. Sure, I could make a local effort and see what is available but that is... |
