3-D Movie Is A Metaphor for Non-Audiophiles

A good swift kick to the groin. Not really. I found people did not respond well to that. I just play music for them. Some people get it, some never will.

Next time you go shopping or have a component home, let them hear the AB comparison. My girlfriend has been very adept at picking up on the differences between components when presented in this manner, as has my sister and other friends. Of course, she still has a system that consists of a Sony cd player, Pioneer receiver and Bose speakers. I have to admit, though, it sounds pretty good, especially considering the effort and $$$ spent. The other thing is that even when people can hear the difference, they may still question whether it is worth the cost and aggravation spent.

A breathy, ethereal female vocal (McKennitt, Cassidy, etc.) in a darkened room. Plop 'em down in the sweet spot and let er rip. It's magic. Works every time. Err, at least until they learn the price of admission...

Maybe I'll try the kick to the crotch trick next time...
