So, In my wondering I began reading up on stand alone CD players. Of course forums are forums where most people say you can't hear the difference with a blind a/b comparison, and I now know that they have NEVER heard a "good" CD player.
I was going to berate this incredibly ignorant post and its generalization about the rest of "everyone else out there" let alone the complete lack of any attempt at objectivity before pronouncing on the rest of the world.
However Saturn posted a cute picture and Peter made a funny and now i'm just laughing (20% at the joke, 40% at the cute kid and 40% at the ridiculous content of this thread). Glad to see you back Saturn. I have yet to drop in on you in TO. I haven't been there in awhile.

Just like Buzz and Zurg in Toy Story II.
Zurg "Go long Buzz"
Buzz "Awe, your a great dad"

Then they turn into teenagers.......
Just be glad you had a boy Ken. Girls stop being human when their brain cells move to their chests. At around 22 they miraculously turn into human being again and say things like "I'm so sorry daddy, you were right" "here, hold your grand daughter".

No kidding, I'm glad I have two sons. Some day they will say "Dad, that is what I like about them high school girls, I keep getting older and they stay the same age".

This is so true, my daughter is now 22 and she somehow seemed to just snap out of what ever world she had been living in for the past 10 years or so. We get along just fantastic now. My son, at 21, now that's a whole different story. Can anyone say head up his ass

You have some very impressive audio equipment there! Does it sound as good as it looks?

It sounds pretty good at least to my ears. Wide and deep sounstage in the 25x23 room. Thats coming form a tiny 3 inch full range driver. My dogs not too happy when we are watching a movie and the 15 inch Rel sub shakes the foundations of all the units surrounding my loft unit. Quote:
