Words From the Wise

1. Buy the best (analog) source component you can afford, first! If you can't recover it, you will never hear it, no matter how "great" your speakers or amps are.
2. Keep in mind that the strength of synergy in your system is vital. Everything needs to work together.
3. Get lots of great (records) music that you love, old, new, reissued.
4. Please don't buy gear that does not clearly sound better (in your system/room) than what you already own.
5. Sit down in the sweet spot with someone you care about and realize that this is what it is all about... have a zen moment.

1. Invite attractive women to your house and play music they bring over. (very key)

2. Beverages (sorry I am a bartender)

3. Then repeat...

Spend a lot more than you can

It Only Looks as Good as it Sounds. Listen With Your Eyes Closed, No Peeking.

DOn't belive ANYTHING you read in "6-moons" or by any paid reviewers. Rely only on your own ears, never pay good money for any piece of new equipment without first auditioning the item. Research-Research-Research online posts by actual owners. Don't buy any audio item just out of curiosity to find out how it sounds. Don't assume a pretty face (panel) equates with superior sound. Buy items built like a tank to military specifications, for longevity. If you want something good then you have to BUILD IT YOURSELF.
