Once when I was on vacation "up North", I was in a bar/restaurant/club and this guy started to do a "stand up" routine.....it turned out to be Steve Martin.
Any favorites for cosmetics/design/how a product looks?
This is simply a wonderment of what other "items, things" you like the looks of beyond audio products? In audio I have always liked the C.J ART pre-amp and my tastes in autos/arcitecture are somewhat biased to Art Deco, etc. Just curious as to what other "things" attract you from a cosmetic viewpoint. Old Packards, the Crysler Building, early Gruen watches and more....

@deadhead1000 Back then my friends all had Marantz receivers and mostly JBL speakers. I was an outlier with the Sansui and ESS’s. I miss the displays of those receivers, intricate and cool! They got a lot of us, like me and you, hooked on audio. |
I also had a Nak, died a few years back though. What cartridge do you use on the Empire? A friend had the Empire way back when and used a Shure V15 III, I myself had to settle for a Pioneer PL-530, the Empire was way too expensive for me back then, and a Shure M95E. Funny how I remember my first….all the best to you. |
I haven’t thought about this for so long I’m kind of astounded I remember! I also had a Shure V15 III along with an Empire 2002 (bought with the TT) and a couple of Stanton 681EEE’s which I thought sounded the best. Haha, what a blast from the past! Thanks for the conversation, I really enjoyed reliving these memories! |
