| One of the most pleasurable aspects of this hobby! I can relate. Was skiing in my 20s up in Quebec and heard this beautiful exotic song playing over the mountain loudspeakers. A few months later was having dinner out with my ex in-laws and former wife when that same song came on the restaurant sys... | |
| Is this a new trend? @viridian has a point. The number of houses I've been in even in my own Gen X that still have floor standing speakers is pretty minimal. Anybody who has anything up from a sound bar usually has a pair of bookshelf speakers. Maybe a sub if they're ... | |
| A life sentence!!! @motown-l good call on the velodyne. I’ve had my CHT-8 since 2002 and it just keeps going and going. | |
| Audio companies in the mirror @mofimadness I’ve always wanted to hear Channel Island equipment! They look well made and invested in. | |
| A life sentence!!! Reference 3a de Capos. Most transparent and honest speakers have ive ever heard | |
| No love for Cube Audio speakers? That seems a fair price for those. They look and sound beautiful. We're getting into the spring and summer season when sales tend to drop, and things just aren't selling as fast recently for all sorts of reasons, both economic and political. Do yo... | |

| Has it all been worth it? I think it has been. I've been on this Merry-Go-Round for only about 25 years, so a lot less than many people here. But an important point to remember is that this hobby is for a very select few for whom auditory satisfaction is a source of conten... | |
| Has anyone tried these products? Agreed with @baylinor . You want more of an acoustic diffusion rather than just absorption. A lot of people get these panels for big noisy rooms or churches or attic Studios or things like that. There are several purveyors of good two feet by 4 ft... | |
| I feel for you So true. I’ve started building speakers, first from css kits and now from scratch. I tend to sell them locally or give them as gifts, and some of the design sound as good or better than commercial speakers I have that cost of thousands and thousan... | |

| I find myself "tuning out" anymore.....is the magic fading? It can be difficult to both realize and admit that our taste are changing, especially as we get older. Especially when we realize that the hobby or Pursuit that we have chased so diligently for years just no longer matters to us as much as it did.... | |
