Ha ha! You mean, your hobby wasn't out of hand yet?

Aside from the truly wonderful gear and the pleasure you all are getting out of it, I love the looks on the faces of the wives when they find out what kind of money is involved. Priceless!

Wow! I just read the page you prepared and it's just incredible that you guys went out of your way to help Ken do his college work. Kudos to ACA!

Please report here when you get the full movie on-line. I'm dying to watch that.

mandatory download for all my family and friends who thinks I am crazy (well if not now, probably sometime in the future)

Thanks for the great film! I feel the same way

50% electricity maybe too much, I would put it on 30% (yes I did get an electrician to put a dedicated circuit just for the amp and another one for the source so they are no on the same serial network ....am I crazy too ?

Are you implying something?

 

[penguindude]

LOL.

I think he was being satirical?

Btw, it was a very nicely-done film.

I think my favorite part in this film is the last section where they are talking about simply enjoying the music. I sugguest closing your eyes and letting the music wash over you.

wow... makes me want to buy a barn.

 

[TheMuffinMan_01]

Fantastic short film, I'm thoroughly impressed. It makes me even more enthusiastic about building up my system. Who needs money when you can have great audio?

But, but, but double blind testing is flawed!!! You know, the blindfolds, the pressure, uh, uh, tape delay, solar winds...

lol, solar winds. http://www.nordost.com/Interconnects...solar-wind.htm

Anyway, I think the difference between a 1k system and these would be fairly obvious. $1000 doesnt really get you very much with speakers. Thats why headphones are awesome though, cause the wors you could possibly do is spend 10k on an Orpheus and a couple grand on a DAC and ICs. At this point, no matter how crazy you are, there really is nothing you can do to make the sound better. That point for speakers is much much higher up.
