Cats and audiophiles

"In the beginning, God created man, but seeing him so feeble, He gave him the cat." ~ Warren Eckstein

"There's no need for a piece of sculpture in a home that has a cat." ~ Wesley Bates

"I've met many thinkers and many cats, but the wisdom of cats is infinitely superior." ~ Hippolyte Taine

"I wish I could write as mysterious as a cat." ~ Edgar Allan Poe

this is one of the few long threads i've read. too much fun.

i have 2 long hairs: vito & xena. xena, well, she'd like to spend time in the listening room but vito, the alpha male, won't allow it---he's quite dominating but so handsome he gets away with it. he's also known to listen w/ me for hours on end...but if i get up to get a snack, he'll jump into my listening chair and refuse to leave.

most interestingly, they never used to listen when i owned merlins or soundlabs, but they love the WP6s, as i do.

What is it with Audiophiles and their feline companions?!...
Me included.

I think cats and music go hand in hand, as they are both a source of introspection...

an audiophile spelling lesson: fazed vs. phased... Belongs posted with that other thread ["you know you're an audiophile when"] you confuse 'phased' with 'fazed'. Of course I meant the latter although I posted the former above.

Yes Albert: Roxi is an INDOOR squirrel; sounds just a little bit eccentric doesn't it? Yes she chews on the furniture, & everything else that she can sink her big rodent teeth into. The house is pretty well trashed; she once even got ahold of the edge on one of my speakers & took a small hunk out of it. Doorjams, cabinetry, furniture, paneling & trim have all suffered some abuse from time to time. But this has been going on for many years now; we started out with 'Rocky' rehabbing squirrels over ten years ago & this now is our sixth one. It's definitely a surreal experience.
