Come on guys ... give a guy a break. Ryansaur ... I love that little doggie ... ever wonder what music must sound like to them (extended hearing). I wish you could sit here and hear what I am hearing. If there is something out there that will sound better to me than this set up then I dont know if I could afford it. I dont care what it is called, how its made, or who said what about it. If it sounds good to me then that is all I need. Keep in mind I'm not a youngster (74) and my hearing might nbe just a tad degraded.. I love live music ... the way you can pick out the different instruments ... and the resonance you feel in your chest. I dont know if a home stereo system can equal that experience. But what I am listening to right now is Miles ahead (get it?) from what I listened to this morning. I attribute that to all you guys motivating me to make positive changes. Next in line is a sub woofer. does Bose make one? ........ LOL just kidding.
