Opinions - The Absolute Sound

I'm with Tvad. Do you really need someone to hold you hand about a magazine subscription?

For the small price of the subscription, it is a cheap fix to my addiction to audio. I may not be able to afford all the good stuff, I can at least look and read about it.

Mceljo, If you are interested in music also, and not just gear, you might check out HiFi+, which offers not only better pictures than TAS but also better music reviews by far, and finally a flavor for what the Brits are up to. The subscription costs of TAS and Stereophile are so cheap, the decision really becomes do you enjoy reading about new equipment and, if so, just order them. If you have philosophical differences with the reviewers and/or advertisements then don't buy them and read Soundstage!, Dagogo, Positive Feedback Online, Enjoy the Music, etc. etc. etc. on line for free.

Tvad, no such thing as one dollar meal. Sort of like audio magazines. You buy one and you want another...pretty soon every day....then finally you are hooked and you can forget that 100 miles a week on your bike. Just say no :?)

GO FOR IT BIG SPENDER!

Hey, I've got $1, and I've been thinking about buying something on the McDonald's Value Meal menu. Should I spend my dollar at McDonald's tomorrow? Will it be tasty? Will it satisfy my appetite? Will it be nourishing?

Tvad, as you are looking for recommendations, spend a little more and go for the Mac Snack Wrap. Yum Yum.
As for TAS, total crap IMO.
