Ah, the compilation of a thoroughly accredited modern audiophile...Lord spare me... :-(
[Note: This is without a doubt thee most despicable post I've ever written on Audiogon, but I'm sorry, when it comes to music, I just can't help myself. One might think these guys' heads would explode if they ever listened to anything besides audio-weenie-approved white chix. Wake up people...The love of our damn systems is not the raison d'etre for what we play through them - it's supposed to be the other way around! Then again, most HT-junkies get their surround systems precisely because they want to repeatedly expose themselves to the most commercial of contemporary Hollywood product, so maybe just the fact that someone can be driven on their quest for technology by a love of the 'art' is no guarantee of an interesting aesthetic outcome either...]
