@thyname making fun of other peoples equipment is the part of the hobby that I could do without. Yes I’m a Macintosh add a tekton guy. I think they both make fine equipment and they’re both made here in the United States. I think I could probably find plenty of people who wouldn’t have a problem with any of my purchases.
I’m not a full on cable denier. I think it’s a little over blown, I think that interconnects and speaker cables can make a difference. I’ll stand behind the power cord argument. Especially since none of the aftermarket ones, are underwriters, laboratories, rated.I hope that you never have a problem with one of these aftermarket cords, messing up any of that fine foreign made equipment that you have.
I probably should’ve taken up knitting. It would’ve been a lot cheaper than the money I spent hiring people… specialists, helping me build my new idea in Speakers called blueprintacoustic.com. That’s kind of what’s wrong with being an audio file. It’s not really a hobby……riding a bike is a hobby unless you’re going to buy and sell equipment home audio is not really a hobby. Home audio is like buying an expensive home Appliance that you have fallen in love with. I think many people get bored and wish that they could have more interaction with their equipment than just turning it on and listening to music. That explains away why there are so many bizarre tweaks that are available to purchase. There is some seriously bizarre stuff that I’ve seen come up for sale. I don’t think I’ve ever seen things like that and other hobbies. Unless you are a electronics tech, there’s really not much else you can do with your equipment except listen to it.. I don’t know just a crazy thought.
After I had my accident (riding my bike) and became a quadriplegic. I was looking for something to do. I can’t use my hands like I used to so streaming music seem to be something fun. Then I started buying and selling equipment. Three years ago I decided that I thought I had a pretty novel idea and started doing my research and hiring specialist to see if my speaker idea would work. I’m very proud at what I’ve created, along with some other very talented people. In a way it tries to solve some of the hobby issues. I spoke of previously. We designed a hands on speaker system that encourages you to make changes and gives you hundreds of options that no other speaker company does. We’re very proud of how they sound and how they look.
when I retired at 40 I thought I would get to ride my bike until I was around 80. That didn’t work out like I planned….so If any of you out there are bored… I’d love to get to know you better, and let’s talk about speakers!
I apologize to all those out there who love their power cables. I wish I could hear what you do, it would give me something else to goof around with. Best wishes to everyone may you find contentment in our audio hobby.
