| I need some advice on High End Car Audio... Save your money. The time and effort involved is not worth it. Put the money into your home system. I wish I had all the cash I put into car audio systems in the past. If I had bypassed the car audio trip I could have my dream system today. | |
| Brag About Your Vinyl Collection How can the record Bad by Michael Jackson be rare. They made plenty of copies. Just because your friends don't have it doesn't make it rare. | |

| Do true audiophiles own Mcintosh gear After reading all the responces I guess audiophiles do listen to Mcintosh. If you just talked to the dealers in Southern California you would never know that. I'm glad I started this thread. Now I'm interested in Auditioning some Mac tube gear. | |
| Going to USA: Where to buy LPs in CA and Vegas? You got to go see Music Man Murray in Los Angeles. More hidden treasures than both Amoebas put together. Give him a call at 323-734-9146. | |
| Do true audiophiles own Mcintosh gear WWW.Records what I said is not Bogus! Shelleys Stereo is a mid-fi store that carries Mcintosh. There other lines are Yamaha, Rotel, Adcom, Rega, Arcam, etc, etc. That is mid-fi as far as I am concerned. The other store Audio Concepts also carries ... | |
| are any of your friends audiophiles? I have a friend that has a very high-end system but he hasn't listened to it in over 2 years. Everytime I mention to him about a thread on Audiogon or an article in Absolute sound he changes the subject. Go figure! | |
