Murphy s Laws for Audiophiles

Your system will never sound better than it does the week before your audiophile buddies stop by to listen to it after you've been gloating on about the latest tweek.About 15 minutes before they show up at the door, you will make an insignificant toe-in adjustment to the speaker which will result in a nasty sibilance,glare,hardness, a near total collapse of soundstage and an odd suckout in the upper mid-bass.Out of politeness, your friends will not say anything negative about it but instead will give you faint praise about "how nice the system sounds,considering...".
You will not discover what went wrong until another week has passed.

As soon as you purchase an audio component, another exact model is listed at 20% less cost.

You buy company X's $10,000 speakers and your audiophile buddy then buy's company X's $25,000, some times you can't win.

1) Two weeks after you receive your amp back from being repaired, the manufacturer is offering a to die for- has to be done at the manufacturer- upgrade.
2) Your cat will bypass the $200 scratching post from hell (with the cat nip upgrade) and head straight for the speakers.

Here's a one for you. You will get negative ratings on your posts, not because it stunk, but because someone has a hard-on for you! I'm not sure if that's Murphy's Law, but, it should be named after someone!
