The music?!! I think Gunbei sat on it and snapped off a piece. I saw inpepinnovations got the epoxy and soldering iron out to try to fix it, but then got caught up in repositioning his speakers and forgot about it. I think he left that soldering iron plugged in cause I can smell something burning. Nrchy and me took the music down to the sacred store but the man there said the music wouldn't play!!.......and them good ol' boys were drinkin whiskey and rye singin this will be the day that I die.

Satch.

If it's only about the music, we'd all have bose acoustic wave machines because sound quality wouldn't matter!

I am not sure if it is correct to add the person or persons owning the system to this equation? I mean, I tend to think that there are so many ideals of sound reproduction & system configuration recipes that it can be overwhelming to the budding audiophile. The systems that I seem to become most impressed with on here and other audio sites are the ones where the crazy sort of synergy that was arrived at reflected the owners own unbalanced perception- a sort of cat landing on its feet finesse. They are informed, but allow their comfort,preferences, to intrude upon the design of their system even when it goes against the legendary wisdom that set them on this path to begin with.

Hey Indiefan - Sign yourself up here and start posting more often. That is an interesting observation and a fine contribution to the thread. I'd like to read more of what you have to say and without your being a member it is more difficult to access that. The worst that could happen is you'll get a few extra "Enlarge Your Penis" and "Buy Viagra Online" emails every day. And for that small price you'll get access to the rantings of a bunch of egomaniacal, obsessed audio-geeks with nothing better to do with their time than to write about their gear and proliferate valuable misinformation that will send your head spinning. Yeah, well, OK, that includes me.....but I might make you laugh once in a while too...and some of these other guys and gals ain't so bad either....actually a few of them seem to really know what they're talking about...and hey, it's kindof fun too! Hope to see you posting more.
