| Are You a Swifty? @wesheadley Thanks for the SECOND list of music suggestions. You are very kind and generous. And, yes, these will be added to my playlist. | |
| Are You a Swifty? @wesheadley Thanks for the "new" music suggestions. I've created an "AudioGon" playlist on Tidal and added these. Hopefully, something there will resemble something like Carol King, Supertramp, and America tossed into a blender? | |
| Are You a Swifty? @waltersalas "The popularity of any given music is certainly not proof of its artistic merit, but neither is it proof of the lack of it. " Well stated. +1 | |
| Are You a Swifty? About "role models": History will demonstrate that deeply flawed individuals can be competant public servants. And those who fit the wide definition of "strong role model" can make the world a much more dangerous place. "The opposition" uses a t... | |
| Qualities Of An End-game System End Game System: - System is paid for - Music room is paid for - No desire or need for approval/disapproval of the system or how time/money is/was allocated to the hobby - modest investment in streaming services - still puts a smile on your f... | |
| Upgrades and repairs on hi fi components Sounds exciting. Congrats. | |

| Upgrades and repairs on hi fi components @bigkidz Looks like you guys have excellent creditials to handle any project that comes your way. Nicely done. Best of luck. | |
| Limiting a full range driver "but deeper in this thread I did say that I am using subs." Yep, there it is. Got me. | |

| The Psychology of Constant (Equipment) Change @audiodwebe With your permission, I’d like to steer this discussion back to "on topic." Since you are asking us to "get inside your head" (a bold endeavor for certain), I have some comments --- AND -- a suggestion. Your seemingly perpetual loo... | |
| How would you spend my next $5K? Spend it on whatever your wife/partner wants. Take what's left in invest it in room acoustics. Either way you'll reduce the noise level in your space. It's a win, win. | |
| Overkill for small room As I dealer, I had one too many customers say: "My room’s not big enough for a Home Theater!" So, I bought a 30" x 30" British phone booth (replica, the real ones literally weigh a ton) and put a full 7.1 surround system in it -- custom enclosures... | |
| Are You a Swifty? Absolutely! I use Swiffers™ to dust off my equipment regularly. My wife’s a fan, too. Could be why we live in harmony? |
