As I slowly fade into the sunset...or at least the next track on whatever is in the cdp...I didn't want to drift off without giving some members their due.
This place has dispensed more useful knowledge than decades of reading Audio, TAS, Stereophile, et. al. When I first came to AR I knew just enough to be dangerous. Like all newbies, I thought my stuff was the best since sliced bread and sounded better than Pavarotti at the Met.
In the legendary words of Bugs Bunny: What a maroon!
Room acoustics? Nodes? Nulls? BFD? First order reflections? Uhh...right.
I still don't know nearly as much as I should, but I have reached a point where I'm comfortable with the idea that I'm squeezing the best possible sound I can out of my modest little rig(s). I could not have reached this level of understanding without the sage advice of a few members:
Wooch: You may wear baby blue, but you bleed cardinal and gold. You know this to be true.
Kex: I still don't understand what Q is but I'll take your word on it.
SirT: My fellow Trojan, the days of TLADINY/Lex are forever etched into my memory (I'll send you my therapists bills)
The FF crew (Worfster, L.J., FA, Beef, Kam, GMike): I don't know about you, but I'm more lost than ever! Thanks for insight, reviews, and most importantly the laughs (yes, Mike, I'm talking about you.)
Dave: I will absolutely audition Taylor sometime, if only because we seem to like all the same stuff!
JSE: Cartman + Lex = coffee on the 'puter screen. Ahh...good times...
RGA: Thanks for the heads up on Noel at Skylan Stands, but you still don't know jack about cars. :)
MarkW: Old school and all the better for it.
I'm sure I've missed a few hundred members, unfortunately I'm out of time (the priciple reason I'm no longer active). Enjoy the music, watch more movies, and have a great time. I sure did! :cool:
See you at the water cooler...
