Why not invest a few American dollars and upgrade. Are there any audiophiles around ??
It appears you wish to discuss audio but is reluctant to get seriously involved in audio by spending a little money !
I guess I'll wait for my tax rebate, and think about it. I'm glad you looked at my system, as I didn't post it because I was ashamed of it.

It's interesting you choose to debase people based on the cost of their equipment. I've never professed to be either an "audiophile" or attempt to suggest that I have the best gear on this site or any other. Furthermore, you are a total tool debating on the "General Audio" section anyways. Why don't you wander around to the speaker/receiver/or other more specific areas? You might find a more specific audience to spew your moronic broad, and generally incorrect statements.

Frankly Melvin, I don't need to justify my spending habits to you or anyone else. But since your asking, I'll clue you in. I have a mortgage, 3 kids, and some student loans (getting my MBA). Personally, I'd rather take the family on vacation every year or so, than sink the money into audio gear. After all, the kids are only young once. Like you were, way back in 1843. And for the tax rebate? I've already booked a family vacation for 2 weeks checking out this great country. Gonna hit Colorado, SD, WY, and some others. I'd invite you, but my car doesn't run on hot air.

And there are some really fine folks on this board that really enjoy discussing equipment, most of it well above my income level. And guess what? Your the only real asswhole in the whole bunch. I'd say pretty much everyone spends what they can afford more or less. Enjoying music/movies/any sound doesn't simply require a big wallet. Why don't you go and start an AV board, where the #1 requirment is income level. Make sure you don't set it too high though because there are plenty out there that would laugh at your setup as well.

Check out that little red chicklet by your name. That means that pretty much everyone hear thinks your a priick. Including me. And don't bother commenting on the "loose" language, its cathardic.
