Dirty New Shirt VS Clean but Slightly Bleached Shirt

Rodeo? There's a rodeo in town? Can I join you two?


Sorry. I just couldn't stop myself. I'm a baaaaaaad poster.

Sheeesh - and I wear cowboy boots too!

I get to stand a whooping 6ft 6 when I got them on. It is fun!

Well Pix,

All I can say is that I'm pretty disappointed in you as a member on this forum. I guess it is good to have you around as entertainment value but otherwise your willingness to jump to conclusions without hearing a system first makes your opinion on audio mute.

If you had answered yes I was just going to say, OK, well, you gave it a shot and you like this other thing better. Who am I to say what you should or shouldn't like. But since you weren't even able to answer my question, and you assumed I was going to take you to a Rodeo, you never got the chance to let me say that.

Now if you had answered no, I would have encouraged you to go and give a $100,000.00+ vinyl system a listen, and a $100,000.00+ digital system a listen.

But since you didn't answer the question, and tried to switch the topic when I called you out, and you assumed I was going to take you to a Rodeo, I'm going to be watching your post for your unsubstantiated flame bating and I will act upon such post in a fashion that may end up with your banishment from the forums.

Now for me, at that price point and above, the source starts to become mute for me. I've heard, because I actually like to hear something before forming an opinion, unlike you, tube, analog, vinyl and tape, CD, computer, solid state, systems at that price point and above and they all sound fantastic. Sure there are certain qualities of one system I may like above another, but their ability to reproduce analog vs digital source material is often quite equal.

I have answered your question.
Talking to you analog types is like debating commies during the cold war.
Solid state is Superior to analog.
HOW is that "jumping to conclusions"???
Its just a simple fact
And like most of the commies who refuse to face reality even while their unworkable system falls around them, you refuse to face reality also, even to the point of talking
about "banishing" those who don't agree with you.
I have heard systems of all types also, and its just a matter of fact that a modern system
is better than an obsolete one. OF course this is going to be a moot argument soon,
because tube manufacture requires a huge industrial base.
Already surplus tubes are used in some gear. As the number of tube types decreases
and economies get worse, this tech will eventually disappear.
And then the argument will be over.

And it gets deeper once you participate in the discussion.

Pix - you didn't answer my question, unless your answer was not answering it.

Second, did you even read what I wrote in my post?

How could I miss it? You shovel it on fast and deep.
Hey, I won't be spinning LP's again anytime soon either. But I don't mind answering the question you keep avoiding. "No, I have never heard a $100k analog system." See how easy that was?

Funny, I am just readint this for the first time. I actually thought it was about shirts and didn't bother.

I love vinyl, but I also love my rips, and I have fallen in love with my Squeezebox Touch.

Convenience has caused the death of many things, maybe it will kill off analog too. I guess that's a good thing? I see people hangin out in Wal-Marts instead of town squres and shops...that is what digital will do.

SHAME on you! You are banished from the Analog Synagogue... Security will relieve you of your ID pass and escort you out... Also send your turntable and LP collection to me, so that I may 'dispose' of them...

Maybe... If it means that audiophiles will focus on pushing the kind of studio quality High Res that Sir T keeps talking about, then the death of analog would be a good thing... But if there is no drive to really push High Res digital, then it would just be a loss of an alternative for audiophiles...
