The newest memeber of the Pogue family

and like all other babies I adopt....light years ahead of my ole Adcoms (my they rest in peace) as far as depth and sound stage...she's not the purddest thang on the block but I'm sure she'll be a round a good long while...

BTW nice seeing some ole faces (and new ones) hope everyones doing well!!!


Peace, Pogue

Good to see you again, Pogue.

Nice toy! What's with the power cord wrapped around the wood stool though?

I know...looks like pooper:cornut: but it's actually speaker cable which is 2.5 meters so I tried to isolate it from the power cords coming from the Prodigy's. Not pruddy to be sure but it is what it is….someday I'll knock down a wall or two and have the room I really need. Hope alls well on your end…any new toys at your place?

Peace, Pogue

Hi Pogue,

Good to hear from you and congrats on the new arrival. Wishing you lots of musical hours.
Hope all is well your end.

Peace

I don't know about that...she's got those hot girl-next-door, sneak-up-on-ya good looks that put 'er up with anything on the blocks 'round here. Nice buy...

Cheers

She's hot Pogue. Many happy hours together. Good to hear from you again.

I've lived with me Adcoms for quite a few years now so when I put the No. 27 in the loop I didn't really know what to expect...it was quite a pleasant surpirse to say the least!!
The improvement was unreal most notably in the depth and soundstage.....I never realized how 2-D sounding my set-up was until now. A few weeks ago I test drove a Theta Voyager and at 10K new I was really expecting alot...but the improvement with this amp puts the Theta test to shame.

It's great when you get something in that really improves the sound, more times than not the improvement is minor (at best) and sometimes it can be more wishful thinking then not...this upgrade is the real deal and that in itself add to this addiction...ah...hobby :)


Peace, Pogue

That amp is ****.

****...wow coming from you thats pretty good!! :17:

Pogue

How are you you ole reprobate?!!! Good to see ya back where you belong. Nice addition...

Does she have a seester?

Da Worfster

Yeah, I like the big busty type!

I've been out of the loop fer awhile but it's great too see some ole faces (even if they aint the purddest ):o

And no I didn't get the twins this time...to be honest i think that woulda been overkill....I was really started rockin her last night first with some Sade, Four Play, Dave Mathews, Peter Murphy, Zepplin, The Outlaws, Dire Straits, The Mighty Bosstones, The Dandy Waldorfs and I'm sure I'm missing a few..but I really went 'round the horn for sure...and all except for the Outlaws getting a big high on the volume it was fun fun fun!! My compantion was Pete and his Wicked Ale but I gave hime the boot durning Zepplin and opted for Beck's Dark (much much better then Becks of which I'm not a fan!)

So Worf...any new pieces on the home front? Hope the gangs doing well! And you Dean...what new on your end? Again hope alls well is Woonman still 'round? OK well nuff fer now....nice seeing you and catch you both soon!


Peace-out, Pogue

Woodman disappeared. There was as an effort by many to track him down once his absence became obvious. There were concerns for his health but I'm not sure if anyone discovered why he left. His last few posts were rather grumpy as LCD, DLP, HDTV and other new tv technologies started taking off. I'm sure we've had a new tv guru (probably more than one) emerge as these new types of tvs have become the norm. I'll discover who it is when I get ready to move up to HDTV.

I switched from solid state separates to a tube integrated, but that was back in November. I lost a little flexibility but made major steps toward the "sound" I've been looking for. Tube rolling has been fun. Next up is to get better speakers.

Good to see you around again!

Sorry to say he has passed on - at least I'm pretty sure he has but I have no proof of that since I don't know his real name. He smoked for a long time and had a lot of lung problems which caused him to have to give up his beloved tenor saxophone. He did get an electronic wind instrument to play that he was having fun with, though. But he just didn't have a lot of lung capacity and I got the impression that life was getting a little cumbersome. He definitely was not feeling well last time we chatted. Good guy, though. Yeah, he was cranky. I would imagine he's looking down on us today and shaking his head. Actually, he's probably pounding his fists and screaming. :)

Dean
Edyct or Ed as we call him has stepped up as the new TV guru, and IMO he is far more knowledgeable than Woodman. That is not to say that Woodman didn't know his stuff, however Ed knows the ends ands outs of the newer technology.
