Listening habits
I listen on average of 4 hours a day. I will listen longer when I can, but often enough life will intervene-thankfully. I usually listen on the louder side- between 8 and 9 oclock on the volume dial, just because I am in the habit of singing along... 
PMC vs. ATC
Im impressed! 
Why am I experiencing listener's fatigue?

Is my setup mid-fi or hi-fi?
My dream system comes in at 100,000.01- 100,000.02 if I go with green. That said, it is very large! It is very, very heavy! In my dream I cant budge it, and the dealer is very old and skinny and italian. He wants me to go-tank you... have fun. tan... 
mother passed away - pro recording help needed
Dennis-If making some sort of documentation of this is helpful to you then I wish you luck finding what you need here. I do not think you are pathetic. It would be nice to get some distance from such grief, and perhaps recording would allow for th...

"new" Joni Mitchell album
I have noticed that usually these compilations are followed by a recording of new songs. That has been her pattern, and I imagine a little creative advertising would not go amiss at this juncture in her career where money and support are not what ... 
new at this...which amp?
Me too...sort of. My suggestion is the same as many here have offered. Check the cables you are using. B&W speakers- regardless of what you think of them, are really revealing of the contributions components bring to a system. I Love this abou... 
If Audio bug never hit you, what hobby might have?
I love Language. I love diaries, letters- biographical and autobiographical material. I love all forms of verbal and non-verbal communications, and it has always been an interest and pursuit of mine, even I have never really put it into any offici... 
Can you ever go back and be happy?
FOR GODS SAKE ROOZE! GET AHOLD OF YOURSELF! er, okay? 
What haven't you listened to in a long time, but..
