Today's facts:

Speaker break-in: does not exist.
Any CD's sound quality is not as good as vinyl.
Bigger & better speaker wire is best.
Analog sound is better than digital.
Tube power is the most true-to-life sound reproduction.
People with tin ears, or tone deaf, buy audio equipment too.
Placebo effect: What happens AFTER someone takes their sugar pill.

this is where I get to be a smart a$$! woohoo!
(these replies are respective to the original list)

Tell that to the man with the hammer.

Garage punk bands recorded to vinyl on a four track clearly have superior "sound quality" to multimillion dollar studio cd masters.

I plan to connect my speakers with rubber coated, silver filled, copper tubing. I have not as of yet figured out how to fit it on the posts.

"Sound" is inherently analog. If I scream off key, it is analog, if I play Bach from cd, it starts life digital. I'm glad you prefer my singing!

If you live life wearing rose colored glasses.

check.

They then get a headache, drymouth, nausea, constipation, and possibly serious heart related side effects. Sugar is bad for you.

This thread topic should actually be called "Tired trolls about audio."

Hey Inane,

Have you seen the new Axiom AudioFile July newsletter? You won the pair of M3ti's for your runner-up suggestion: "Passionate People, Excellent Sound"!

Congratulations. I particularly liked your suggestion.

Wow... how transparent is this attempt to get everybody riled up? Good thing it hasn't worked.
