@baylinor Ha ha ha ha! hilarious!    : )  
Words of wisdom on choosing a speaker
I'm staying out of this one ... lol  P.S. love my speakers. Have loved them from the day I got them, and the sound has done nothing but improve more and more as I've learned about room control. Martin Logan Summit    
Best Sound Track Ever Vote for One
+1 @aewarren Elevator to the Gallows great example of film noir ... technically speaking, also a very early example of french new wave. It's a great film, imo, and in addition to the soundtrack by Miles Davis the film also has a really cool car ...

Near Dark it's considered a Horror/Western film ... but it's really a pretty choice Vampire flick  Soundtrack by Tangerine Dream was made in 1987  
what’s a song cover that you think is better than the original?
OP, great idea for a thread! This is obviously a very subjective thing, right? It has a lot to do with our individual preferences and taste. Joni Mitchell's song A Case of You is such a gorgeous song, imo. But the first time I ever heard it sung... 
Why Is Hi Fi Gear So Darn Expensive?
@temporal_dissident I don’t particularly disagree w/ your lusting after gear theory. I built a fairly nice system when I was married to the mother of my kids, which gave me a taste of good sound. Years later when I decided to build another system... 
Nordost Valhalla 2 - Susceptible to Noise?
Forgot to add that one of the things I like about my Nordost speaker cables is how sexy they look. Ha ha ha ha I’m kind of into design, as a matter of fact that’s one of the reasons I bought my ML Summits, because I think they’re beautiful to look... 
Nordost Valhalla 2 - Susceptible to Noise?
@nyev I don't think you don't need a circuit breaker filter as much as you need a PS Audio P15. I encourage you to read some reviews of PS Audio's approach to cleaning up your power. I have some very revealing Martin Logan electrostatic speakers ... 
Cable curmudgeon
@wesheadley I'm not a tube guy or a vinyl guy so I'm not really hip to your equipment but it looks like your system is well thought out and you have a real sweet setup. You appear to have good taste, I bet you're pretty discerning and you seem lik... 
Cable recommandations
@music_is_life  +1 Ha ha ha ha ... Thanks for the laugh  
Sharing my experience with cables
Both the OP and another poster a few posts into the thread politely asked the naysayers to refrain from making negative or dissenting comments ... guess what? That's exactly what happened. Kind of exposes their character. I guess it would be aski... 
Best progressive rock album side
One of the things I love about this hobby is there are so many different facets to it. It’s difficult to say which ones I enjoy more and it varies from time to time, but the appreciation of the artistic expression of music is, to me, what every ot... 
Why is used audio equipment so undesirable?
I scored a pair of ($11,000) Martin Logan, Summitt speakers that were in what I would call very good condition for $3,152. They're absolutely gorgeous, and perform flawlessly. And associated gear, but that's my best deal yet. Buying used a bad id... 
Does Formula 1 racing and high end audio go together for anyone else?
@tablejockey  that's a cool video! I love Rossi's persona. The Ducati mechanic here in KC was a riding buddy of mine years ago when I used to ride, I can only imagine what it would be like to ride with Valentino casually. It would be so cool if he...
