New upper trim level Corvette or seven year old used amps?

Hi, this is far from an audio thread input on my part but I could not resist the subject of CBD and weed.

I don't agree or disagree with the two individuals fighting over cancer and cbd and weed.

But others reading may get confused. Nowaday you don't need to smoke weed to get high. You get high from the substance in cannabis called thc. You can get it in non smokeable  formats.

CBD does not make you high and you don't smoke it. It is being heavily studied because it seems it may have beneficial effects in many medicinal aspects, including helping fight cancer.

We all know how to Google. Just choose quality places to get informed.

I'm of to listen to some music. FYI, I never took any drugs or even smoked a cigarette. Not advocating drugs. Am advocating knowledge.

Happy Holidays to all

Not over cbd and weed ... just weed. CBD no issue, smoking weed is smoking.

A question to the Porschephiles:
Why didn’t they go head to head with the Ford GT40 way back or more recently, the Audi R10 diesel? Instead they go to LMP2? Really? They always wimp out against dominating competition. They make great cars no doubt, but they do not like competitors, unless it’s them.

Baffling, sophomoric questions. Not surprised. Hardly anyone knows motorsport, let alone Porsche. Let me fill you in on just a tiny little bit:

From the beginning and for most of history Porsche was a very small company that could ill afford to spend much on advertising or racing. Porsche never did race for fame or glory nearly so much as to prove designs and reliability directly applicable to production. That is why the first epic Porsche wins were races like the Targa Florio (where Porsche trounced Ferrari and all other much more powerful cars, and for which the Porsche Targa is named) and the Carrera Panamericana (same deal, and from which the Porsche Carrera and Panamera take their names).

Then and to this day Porsche has focused on endurance racing. Porsche does not race against Ford, or Ferrari, or Audi. The competition for Porsche is perfection. 

The 24 hours of LeMans is the pinnacle of motorsport. Porsche has more outright LeMans wins than anyone. Its not even close. Porsche so dominates LeMans they maintained their historic record despite not even being there for many years. Then despite their long absence very nearly won on their first year back, proceeded to win the next 3, and in 2015 established a motorsport record never to be equalled by anyone, ever:

17th overall victory at LeMans

ALL GT titles in the US Sports Car Championship

FIA WEC GTE Pro Manufacturers', Drivers', and Team Championships

FIA WEC Drivers Champion

FIA WEC World Champion

So remind me again, what was that question about Porsche being afraid of competition? 

well....ok.

first off, congrats to Matt for your dart 458 acquisition. i loved those amps, and am very happy you are now loving them too. i’ve moved on to the 468’s and am enjoying the bump up in performance.

as far as cars and audio. 3 years ago i scratched a life-long itch and purchased a 2016 Porsche CS2. this was June 2016, it was a 10k miles factory demo. owned it for 18 months, had a blast, but it was basically a trophy kinda thing. whereas; i listen to my hifi system 30 hours a week, 52 weeks a year. i drove it about 5000 miles over that 18 months. so it was a couple of trips, and Saturdays in the summer time a few times a month.

when i sold it those funds have advanced my stereo system in various ways, and i have no regrets. there is no one right answer. and maybe someday i’ll get another 911.

i can tell you that to my ears there is nothing quite like the big dart mono blocks. i love how they tell you everything, yet always sound like music.

as far as cars; been in the car business for 45 years, and manage a Honda dealership.......so i know cars pretty well. i’m not and never have been a Corvette person, the Porsche is my kinda car. amazing product.

Lots of people are saving up for when they're dead. Get an Airstream Interstate and go see America and Canada. @coasttocoastphotoatl
