    Gawd I hate Best Buy

    With the money he will get from the law suit he can go to a real audio shop and buy some really good stuff. He can then drive his purchases home in his new Maybach. It might be worth it all in the end. :cool:

    Shielded cable is coaxial. Standard CATV cable is 75 ohm coax. Generally, any shielded cable (most interconnect) is coax. I heard somewhere that using 50 ohm coax can show subtle sonic differences :eek: Has anyone ever investigated? :rolleyes:

    got a few pre-amp questions.....

    I've noticed...

    auditioning speakers When auditioning speakers it seems logical to bring your own source material. Music that you are very familiar with. As far as sound goes I go with neutrality. I am certain that neutrality will tend to make bad sounding recordings sound bad and vice versa. My ES panels...

    How Come Everyone Is buying Xpensive $800 subs that are 300-100 watts

    Listen to one of those expensive subs connected to a decent system then compare that sound with one of those all in one box systems and you will be able to answer your question. Louder deeper and cleaner bass to start with! :cool:

    What Is the best live show you've seen?

    Archie Shepp in a church basement on the Univ. of Pa. campus in the middle eighties. He was staying at a friends mothers' house. By showtime I was amazed that he could stand, let alone play like a virtuoso. He did three sets each one better than the one before. :cool:

    Nakamichi

    Long Live Nak's I've got 2, an LX-3 and a ZX-7. Have owned all kinds of cassette decks over the years and the old Nak's simply walk all over them. Tapes made on a Nak do not sound the same (as good) on other decks. :cool:
