Resolution Audio CD55

And paying 3 times the price, to boot. My CD50 is NOT a "so so" player, and I dare you to bring this Accuphase by my system anytime for a real shootout. Perhaps the 55 is not as good as the 50...I won't allow cigar smoking in my home, though, but I'm sure you'll forget all about stink weed once you hear the system.

Mr. Muse. I add my two cents on Gary at Audio Gallery in Lake Oswego. After a bad experience with Gary and his stuck up, A-Train, "I'm better than you" pencil-boy attitude, I decided to stop buying new equipment from retail dealers. I'll Burn in Hell or Listen to Lawrence Welk on the black and white before before spending my hard earned big boy dollas on some low-down rat-faced rat-brained second-city, uppity, contemptible little wiener dog of a man like that I even avoid brands that his store sells because I don't want him as a repair service liason. I never mentioned it because it's his business, and everyone is entitled to a bad day. But over time, I have heard unsolicited, serious complaints from two other people in the Portland Oregon audio community. And now I see he messed with Garfish! I'm really mad! Gary should leave the audio business and take a job where people aren't victimized by the presence of his personality. * By the way, I'm just kidding about LW - He's a good guy.

hey Carl, I know you are somewhere South East, How far? Anywhere near N.C.?

Gotta say, I know this is a 14 year old thread but since Gary died not all that long ago, I wanted to leave a positive in his memory. I lived in Lake Oswego for a decade, went into his shop regularly, bought minor stuff (too many kids to really buy what I wanted) and was treated like a valued customer by he and his lovely wife - time, attitude and attention - every visit. Gary was wheel chair bound much of his life, held the world's record in multiple distances and I believe invented the current style of racing wheelchair. His hi-end shop that was beautiful in appearance and sound. RIP Gary.
