Ok this will be a good thread.


What in your opinion is the most important part of a good 2 channel system. Or what has the biggest impact on overall sound. For example if you feel Speakers are most important, or Preamp, Amp, Source. I am not looking for a ss vs. tube debate, just what do you feel is most important.

I will start:
I feel speakers are the most important part. I know lots of you are going to say electronics, but keep it to one part, like Preamp, Amp, etc.

Marco,
While impressive, THE POWER OF CHI cannot hope to match THE POWER OF CHIA.

Once you fully grok this deep truth, meditate on this haiku:

If your dog, Green with envy,
applies right filter
will he be well Red?
Ah, quite right Rel, I am not ready yet to invoke THE POWER OF CHIA. But I pray that one day I may be worthy and that great rabbit may grace my garden and provide my family with an abundance of sprouts for our sandwiches!

I will meditate on your haiku once I stop laughing!

Marco
Thanks guys. Came back from wkend and got a big laugh form above! Call me thoroughly "grok'd"!!

Question: what is the sound of one green Chia dog clapping; when I look at a green Chia dog walking (Sean Penn to be cast in the new Miramax film), is the dog moving or my mind?

When you are listening to your stereo and deep into the Music and your thoughts are settled, quiet in the mind, receptive to "what is", and you open your eyes and there is a green dog standing in front of you. In the moment before you say "green" what is the dog? What are "you"?

Answer: 6ch's No-thing.

But as I say this, 6ch hits me with a stick! Why?

The Galena woods are green.
The finger's only use is to point to the moon, it's not the moon; words, sentences, languages only use is to reflect the "true meaning" (non-dual). Once the meaning is understood, words themselves'-destructed; "No perceiver, no perceived, only perceiv-ing"; no path, no searcher, no searching...

Well said, Asa...
