Have you "lied" to yourself?
Bluenose, I'm going to HAVE to lie about the Meadowlark Nightingale's I crave, unless the Talon Khorus that I'm planning to listen to do it! Anyway, that's why I keep my system at the office...great for late night / early morning listening! 
Have you "lied" to yourself?
3chihuahuas, your practice is normal, don't worry, eventually they stop asking...afeter about wife no. 5! 
Stereophile "coverage"
The core readership of Stereophile is being let down - one by one - and the ML Prodigy and LAT-1 reviews are the most obvious symptons of this - pooly written and biased: e.g. the price/value relationship of the LAT-1. If a $40k (inc. taxes & ... 
Who R U?
Detlof, Albert P....when I was about 7 years old my father took me to Holland & Belgium for an Esperanto conference...and one morning I stood aghast at the sight of a shopkeeper SCRUBBING THE SIDEWALK on her hands and knees! My dad asked the l... 
A Moment of Silence for The Doctor
My I offer my condolences to his family and to his family of audio enthusiasts. Several times I have introduced his name to threads, and that is because "the doctor" wrote so passionately of subjects audio...and was a one-of-a-kind personality. He...

Visitors to my place always ask FIRST...What kind of CABLES are THOSE? WOW!So that's the only reason that I have 'em. 
Hales owners discussion

Stereophile
Key word...asylum...hmmmmmm! 
Disappointed in SACD player
Trelja...these formats are not even "trickling down" to audiophiles! I'm just going to go with vinyl. Yeah, Mickey baby! 
Are Tuners - Audiophile quality
And what about AM reception, Marv...only the Audiolab serves us well...y'know the WAF factor hurts us there...so much that I had to put my Addison out for her. 
Should Manufacturers Post Prices In Ads
Stokjoc, thanks for explaining the "obvious". The "Toys from the Attic" adverts always draw my eye to see how the prices of products are standing up to the market. I do wish that they would delete their "call" $, though.
