Completely passive audio system...

OK, Gthrush1, you've made me wet my Depends. Thanks for a great start to my day!!!

Egads, look at all of those interconnects! Someone get that dude a gramophone, quick!

..aaa**aahhhhhhhh. audio nirvana!

I also enjoy listening to my 'wind-up music boxes!' I find the potential energy from compressed springs to be much more sonically satifying that any electric motor. About the only piece I can't find on 'wind-up music box' is the 1812 Overture. but it's all about equal, since I can get like 12 different copies of it on SACD!!! (only God knows why??!?)

Gthrush1, I have the same system but despite my best efforts I haven't been able to single out the best cables yet. Thanks for the tip. I always think it sounds best after a couple prozacs.

Get Passive!

I remain,

I upgraded from a totally passive system to one that was passive-submissive. It doesn't sound like much, but I get to beat the crap out of it whenever the mood strikes!

My system's full of passive-aggressive Alephs. I get TOO passive and leave them on, and they get REAL aggressive on the electric bill!
