| NEWS FLASH!! Listening to Music is NOT a "Distraction." @normb I've got it to. Some good days. Some not-so-good days. Anything louder than the noise is a plus. | |
| Owning Up To It Okay, then. Let’s try flipping this. How about the time when the band was perfect, and you weren’t. Any takers? One comes to mind, but want to see if anyone else bites on this and wants to take the lead? | |
| NEWS FLASH!! Listening to Music is NOT a "Distraction." @rja I’m not good at multitasking and have a tendency to mute all outboard stimulii when doing important work. @old_ears I could have used this advise many times in life. Failed attempts at multitasking can lead you down a serious slope. It seems... | |
| NEWS FLASH!! Listening to Music is NOT a "Distraction." @ejr1953 You're welcome. And, thanks for the response. Hope you found a creative way to repurpose the mouthguard. | |
| Owning Up To It Moondance Jam. Walker Minnesota, 2018. My vote goes to the young lady that forgot to lock the door behind her when she entered the Port-a-Potty. It’s always nice to meet new people at music festivals. I know this doesn’t quite hit the target for ... | |
| NEWS FLASH!! Listening to Music is NOT a "Distraction." @nonoise Well, that didn't go as I intended. I was hoping to exit this discussion at a good point. There was no conscious attempt to attach you to all the statements by others in this forum. I felt sergio's final: "And this does not mean that e... | |
| NEWS FLASH!! Listening to Music is NOT a "Distraction." @mceljo "Can it stop you in your tracks while you're doing something other than intentionally listening to the music?" Short answer to your question: "Yes". And, then some. | |
| NEWS FLASH!! Listening to Music is NOT a "Distraction." @serjio @nonoise We may have set a new record here on just how far off topic we can go? At any rate, it’s always good to read responses to a thread that I originate. The premise of the thread was to respect music as it’s own entity and not demote... | |
| When a budget speaker is preferred to a high end one... @pcrhkr Your reference to the Ultralinear 100s brings back memories. It was said that if you removed them from the carton and set them next to it and a big gust of wind came up, the speakers would blow away and the cartons would remain in place. ... | |
| Bookshelf speakers on a bookshelf (Sad) @mduffy18d You’ve certainly entrusted us with a lot of personal information. What happens in the forum, STAYS in the forum. | |
| NEWS FLASH!! Listening to Music is NOT a "Distraction." @larsman I totally agree that artistic expression can take us to another destination. I'll deduct from your comment that the form of that expression is not as important as how it moves us. After reading the phrase "music is a distraction" multip... | |
| Bookshelf speakers on a bookshelf (Sad) What?!! Bookshelf speakers not good on bookshelves? There was a study that concluded duct tape was not good for ducts. It”s all coming into focus now. | |
| What Is Most Important? If you're willing to look past the theology, religious leaders can be excellent teachers. Like a church sign I came across a while back: "A good friend stabs you in the front." Many parallels and contemporary references in one, simple sentence. | |
| When a budget speaker is preferred to a high end one... Outstanding posts! If I recall correctly,the Dahlquist DQ-10 used a $5 Motorola piezo as a "super tweeter". Not many of us will dispute the legitimacy of this speaker as one of the most impactful speakers of our time. Genius has a way of leap fro... | |
| What Is Most Important? I push a button and music plays. Everything beyond that (staging, bandwidth, high resolution, etc.) is a plus. And very much appreciated. |
