You're quite a guy.

Not really, but my radar for hidden agendas is fair-to-middling.

I have no hidden agendas whatsoever.

I don't think that any of us except Krueger thought you did. But then again,
he has some rather strange and paranoid ideas about "agendas". He tends tapply
them to almost all who disagree with him.



I just had a hope that this topic would
be interesting to follow.


I think that you will find that aside from those of us who are continually
attacked bvy Krueger because we don't happen to share his anti-vinyl,
anti-tube, anti-individual-preference, (and I guess we now have to add
pro-mass-market) biases, others will answer your question in a factual,
nonagrumentative way.

For the record (no pun intended), I have about 1600 LPs and 200 CDs. I enjoy
listening to both formats, but spend most of my listening time enjoying LPs. I
also have what I would consider to be a high-end mobile audio system (I do a
lot of driving to various hospitals, ERs, etc.) which is primarily tape-based
(Nakamichi TD-1200 Type 2 Mobile Dragon). Therefore, I do a lot of home taping
from my record/CD collection so that I can enjoy both formats in my car. I
prefer not to take chances with possible CD recorder/CD car player
incompatibility issues that can come up when dealing with CD-RW's and CD-R's.







Ah, the voice of overwhelming reason and underlying nostalgia. I again
sense
wistful thinking about that lost LP collection.


Off course. I had a lot of records never since published on cd. I made a
choice and never looked back. Water under the bridge.

I have used cd's as the only media since 84, and been satisfied with
this media since then. My equipment today is a cd-player with tube
based line-stage, a home buildt "Grounded Grid" tube preamplifier and
a Threshold SA-3 power-amp, because my AR9-LSI speakers is very hard
to handle. This combination of vacuum tubes and SS is the perfect
match for me, because the tubes gives the music a certain touch of
being there, and the Threshold can deliver power enough to pass on
all the details together with a beautiful sound stage. Please feel
free to disagree, but you can change my opinion.

I'm sure I can't change your opinion so I won't even try. Ditto for your
behavior.


I'll just leave all the beating and attacking to you. You're really good at
that.

I'll guess you're wrong in every way, so next time please do your
homework before you attack them.

Except I may not have been wrong in every way. I just misinterpreted some
signals and got others sorta right.

I don't think so, not even close.

BTW, there does not appear to be much homework to do. I can't find one
previous post for you in google, prior to these few posts right here and
now.

I've been active since fido-net, so your Google must be defective, or you
can't guess my sir name. It's by the way in my e-mail address.

Therefore, what I saw was the best I could get.

Maybe it's because that i normally don't bother to discuss with trolls like
you, but you will fit nicely in my kill filter, so mr. Krueger:

PLONK

Don't bother to answer, you're gone.
