members and their systems


for the short time I have been on here, I see that members will start a thread asking about a certain piece of equipment or speakers..       they will then buy that piece of equipment / speakers, start a thread about it saying how good it is and then next thing you know, they are starting another thread asking about another piece of gear as they are looking for something different.           what happened to that piece of gear that was so great ?       
  i get the whole buying thing....but where are members getting the money to do all of this stuff ?       do they not have other bills such as rent / mortgage payment, car payment, other bills to pay for also ?

@glupson,  I know I'm in the wrong thread here, but do you have any new insights into the hot stamper Emotional Rescue?  Have you listened to it some more?  Has anyone else listened to it and opined?
Porsches are very reliable. Something like 60% of every 911 EVER made is still on the road after like 60 years. The difference with Porsche versus Tekton, Better Records and his other commercials he spouts is that MC doesn’t get any special treatment for promoting them.

Wrong. You are so freaking wrong and full of it. Just like all the haters. I will now channel Jack Nicholson: "You can’t handle the truth!"

Here’s the truth: I don’t promote anything! I’m an enthusiast. Period. Something really good comes along, something I care about, I get enthusiastic and share. It is that simple.

You know this is true. You cannot find even one counter example. Also I am a royal tightwad with my money- and unlike most around here with the notable exception of mahgister I am equally tight with everyone else’s money. Constantly telling people do not waste money on this, do not waste money on that. Even with things like the recent Townshend, almost every time I include the fact you can get quite good results with springs like Nobsound and for a whole lot less. Not as good, but awful good for the money. Who in China I wonder is paying me to tell everyone how great Schumann generators are? When I am telling them to buy the cheapest ones around at $9.91 a piece? You are so full of it. So freaking full of it, you don’t even know!

So let me tell you! The best Porsche tech on the Eastside, Squire Tomasie at Squire’s Autowerke. When I needed a new alternator I called Squire and he said what time will you be here? I get off work 2:30 so I guess around 3. "No, what time?" Okay, I get it. "I will be there at 2:55."

So 2:55 I am rolling into the lot and Randy has the bay door up I pull onto the lift and before I can get out of the car he has the lift ready and I pop the lid and he is going to work. I enjoy a beer with Squire, Randy does the work, and I can go on and on with stories like this all day long. Because that is how I roll.

You. Have. No. Freaking. Clue.

You want to be a hater, spend all day venting your spleen (look it up) be my guest. Hope the world treats you as badly for your ill will as it showers pennies from heaven on me for my enthusiasm.

No, seriously, this is an audiophile site. I am an audiophile. A damn serious one. As someone told me recently, it seems this site is more for people who just want to spend all day knocking everyone else showing how great they are, a lot of them probably don’t even have systems.

Insightful comment. Can’t help noticing sokogear, no system. Move along. Please.
millercarbon,

Do you ever pay attention to what you write? This is what you managed to mix in one single post.


"No, seriously, this is an audiophile site. I am an audiophile. A damn serious one."

This serious...

So let me tell you! The best Porsche tech on the Eastside, Squire Tomasie at Squire’s Autowerke. When I needed a new alternator I called Squire and he said what time will you be here?....I enjoy a beer with Squire, Randy does the work, and I can go on and on with stories like this all day long. Because that is how I roll.

Some words of wisdom...

"...it seems this site is more for people who just want to spend all day knocking everyone else showing how great they are..."

And then you present yourself with this...

"Hope the world treats you as badly for your ill will as it showers pennies from heaven on me for my enthusiasm."

Calm down your inept anger towards whoever is not you.




tomcy6,

"...do you have any new insights into the hot stamper Emotional Rescue? Have you listened to it some more? Has anyone else listened to it and opined?"

As you can see, this thread takes anything so you are in the right place with your question.

I have not played that record ever since that first (few) times. That game was for me just enough.

The record is still on offer, but there have been no takers. I asked once or twice again on that thread, but nobody contacted me. I guess there is not much interest. I thought that someone who already has a regular copy might be interested in comparing and letting us know, but nobody so far raised her/his hand. I am only asking for it to be sent back whenever the person finishes with it. If there is more than one person, even better. The sample becomes more significant. Still, I lost hope.

Maybe it is because it is not a usual Hotel California, Diana Krall, Pink Floyd variety?




...at least I show up after everyone's' gone to bed or (perhaps) turned their heat down.....*phew*

Spend what thrills or chills you on audio...and let your ears do the walking. ;)

Cells....our 'lectric leashes tend to echo our desires and maybe our needs.  Kinda like ones' underwear...*L*

Since the business 'we' are looking to hire some new slaves (I mean) 'employees', we're looking at using a 'burner' for initial contact purposes.
We can remain anonami to winnow the huff 'n chuff from the potentials to keep from being pestered by the wannabees.

The hire hall at this point is such that any biped worth considering is already busy; we're looking for some newbies that exhibit potential without ingrained habits and lofty self-worth $ in their eyes....

Ones' that make new mistakes that don't repeat them just 'cuz they think they know Better....

"Well, I used a bigger hammer on it...."
'Your mistake was using it on the item, instead of your head...'
