Put fun back into Hometheater+Music



      Music and Movies are fun, they remind us we are human and we love entertainment. Im not sure where this idea got derailed and became so serious and jaded. I hear the points of view in their insulting manner, in their very narrow points of view and i shake my head. There seems to be such a desire to be “right” instead of sharing our audio knowledge in a caring way.

respecting each other is really the GoldenRule, but it got lost when we sit behind our screens and throw insults and mean spirited comment.

i feel most sorry for the newcomers who have a desire to put together fun systems for their families and get caught in the mire of negativity, let’s band together with all our knowledge and help each other and make the world a better place, peace & love

 thinking the is but one answer to  being “ right “ with the  illusion we seek to create with stereo or HT is the problem…..R. Waters, excepted of course….
Mike - nice to see your good attitude here, i am sorry i missed the gig you had recently……will pm, hopefully a rain check…

Your theory about Agon is also relevant viewed thru the lens  of emotional intelligence, or deficit…as it may be….

best to you.

One more positive thing about this place is i have bought used gear by caring owners since i joined up many years ago. This community cares a great deal about its equipment and caring for it, and relaying its condition accurately.

As always there are exceptions but i think they are few.

Thanx for encouraging the acknowledgement of “kindness is a better way.” 
And Hometheater is fun, it has its challenges and takes years to learn all the ins and outs :0) there is no “right” way, if there is a right way, and that means i now have licence to be mean spirited, then its the wrong way……..

      peace

The fun hasn't left for me.  I started out focusing on home theater with music a secondary consideration.  That has flip-flopped over the years.  Due to space and budget limitations I do both with one system (although I have a total of 4 modest systems) and enjoy it immensely.  Take what you need and leave the rest.
