I hope that when (if) I have kids they love music as much as I do. I would love sitting down talking to my son/daughter about high end audio and getting their opinions on various setups and rigs.

That is what I was wishing.... All the equipment that I have and he acts like I am weird for buying it... He is a "new" geek. They think the the new Ipad /crap is the state of the art... It is ashamed, I have 25+ years of IT management experience and he is too closed minded......

^ Yea... I mean I like some of the new pieces of equipment that comes out but I'm a little more into it than you say your son is; I occasionally surf Engadget to get info on the new stuff and research that although I never get any of it :X

Meh, I love being a nerd

Omg. You are indeed a true audiophile.

Amen

Congrats spartan! Now show him what Head-fi is all about.

If he eventually turns up with a Sennheiser HD600 the amplifiers should follow soon, congratulations.

What happened to me. But in my case it will be 2 amplifier as the first (bravo tube amp) seems to be no improvement

 

[koonhua90]

@ OP, it really seems like he is acting like your father telling you off not to spend too much, and you're more like the son who has a lot of gadgets 

 

[mrsal]

haha, my mom flipped when she saw the ue700's that were in the cart on apple.com

 

[EphemeralHope]

>_>.... my dad would never spend more than 5 dollars on a set of earphones........ dang.

^Lol lets hope not. That would make me the happiest dad in the world though.

Don't forget to tell him to stay away from head-fi....
