    Teens don't care about sound quality no more!

    Most teenagers parents have all switched to 7 channel theater crap. When they get a chance to hear a good stereo and they feel the thump in their chest they are hooked instantly. Most will never hear a good two channel system.

    why do the really high end turntables not have covers?

    Warm up time...tube vs solid state

    I am a true believer that they sound better when warm. I usually power up everything and just play the radio on low volume. Usually let it run 15 min or so.I still feel it truly doesn't warm up until you throw some volume into it. Maybe just powered on quietly doesn't warm it up enough?

I was actually surprised but the sound was pretty good. I make sure that I transfer all music with apple lossless. It...

    what was the first record you ever bought? How old were you? Do you still have it?

    I got Kiss Love Gun for my 10th birthday in 1977. Still have the album. It is scratchy but still sounds good. Played it for my 18 year old daughter a few months ago. There is a song called Christine Sixteen.. She asked me if it was legal for adults to lust after 16 year olds back in 1977...

    I have been listening to my old vinyl for a couple years now. I have some old records that sound great(Tom petty-dam the Torpedoes+Eagles- The long Run) that I still have from the early 80's.
