| What other obsessions do you have? Guys...... (deep, fatherly voice)...... We're here to enjoy ourselves, and learn something. And what have we learned today? That we grow up, earn more money, buy bigger toys, but we're only bigger boys. Let everyone post an off-topic thread if the... | |
| Congratulations to Marco Marco, now I really envy you. You're not only more witty than I am, you've got a better system and you're talented. But wait, I will beat you in something someday. Seriously: as maker of a magazine (about water: drinkingwater, water managment etc ... | |

| old JBL studio monitors Studio monitors.... The ones I used to listen to in my recording days were the ones like Dynaudio's, old B&W 801's and some active stuff like ATC's and Genelec. They had in common that they sounded very analytical, a bit harsh, could go incred... | |
| Sell or keep my Turntable If I were you I wouldn't sell it. You think you will get back to your records one day - that means you need something to play them. The Rega with arm is pretty good, and I really liked the K9. So at present, you have a pretty decent TT, and who kn... | |
| Hasselblad 503CW or Bronica SQ-Ai Oh no, you guys beat me again!! BTW Marco, I was the one who suggested a link between photography and audiophiles. It's funny that, just as with audio, the equipment gets named. Maybe it's a little bit Freud? No offense guys, just jealous, 'cause ... | |
