IN ANY given case any ford will beat any Chevy, if for no other reason that said CHEVY
will probably fall apart before it reaches the finish. My bro put three transmissions in
his S10 the first year, before he wrote it off as a bad job. Meanwhile I PUT 150k on a
crown vic in a year and a half,police duty , and only changed the oil. JUST traded it
because the city made me.Can't win if you can't keep it together.

The ZR1 Corvette will beat any other American sports car

Don't even bother with someone who makes a statement that any HTIB will sound as good or better than any Tube based system. The thought process trickles down to any subject you can bring up.

I've been away for a long time and am glad to still see you battling the evil forces here on audioreview.

GREAT system, very clean.
Only prob I have with MAGGIES is expecting a bunch of apes to jump out, start throwing
bones all over the place. But to each his own.

It took me a minute to understand where you were coming from, ... 2001 a Space Odyssey?
LOL!

Anyway, there is no right or wrong in audio, only preferences like you said.

Pictures don't ever show things as they appear in real life. It doesn't seem as sparse as it appears in the picture. I plan on moving the electronics away from the front and putting up something green like fake plants. Oh well, to each his own.

The only thing is that we like what we have, don't you agree?

Although I am partial to dipole speakers, I find that the System Audio speakers used for ambiance adds enough dynamics to the sound to overcome the lack of dynamics in dipole speakers. As we all know, dynamics is important for movies. They sound somewhat like your B&W's.

I like many systems even if they are not what I would choose. Most decent systems have attributes that I really enjoy.

Anyway, thanks. It's always good to see other systems. I wish I had a turntable and the records to go with it! I really miss them.

There are decent ones at thrift stores all the time.
There is nothing special about records, IMHO, but I have a crate that surrived a flood that
wiped out the other two, and I listen to them every once in awhile.
AND yes, dynamics is important in HT, not so much in music perhaps, but still nice to have(unless its two in the morning and you risk waking the neighbors)!
