Kindred audio spirits...

While on the move -

At the flat -
Nothing yet, I work in a different city so all the equipment is back home, I am quite scared of losing it or room mates not treating them well :(
Well, you can hope that your room mates have the same hobbies as you so they can understand.

^^I wouldn't trust my roommates to treat stereo equipment with respect, I wouldn't invest in a good one until I had a place of my own. One of those mini-systems or even a large blaster would be good enough, and if it got damaged I wouldn't lose sleep over it.

Vistas and SLs...

This kid I work with needed an optical cable from his TV to his receiver so I gave him one. He doesn't have cable or satellite but is using an outdoor antenna to get HD reception. From what I remember, reception off antennas are clearer...it's been so long. The last time I did so was when the Colts played the Bears in the Super Bowl.

He's now having a child so he was trying to off his Martin Logan Vistas to me. Had I not have the SL's I would have jumped on them. I hope he is able to sell them to a good home that will enjoy and care for them.

I have a few tos-link optical cables, I always loved the thought of having a 'beam of light' transmitting a signal from my players to my receiver.:D With HDMI taking over the days of optical connections for home use will be at an end soon, only legacy gear will have the input/output jacks.:(

^^that is painful when stuff like that happens.


I started installing 2 pair of Alpine 6 1/2" speakers into the Silverado. one in every door. I needed a severe sound upgrade in the truck.

Clean and loud...

^Nice set of drivers there Jim. I'm sure it will sound great after some break in. Kids nowadays play their music with the bass too loud. I can hear them a block away. Distortion passes for music?
