You have a piece of **** turntable. What the hell do you know?


*I know your hearing is suspect as is the bass response of every
system I ever heard in your place.
I guess that's how you managed to get away with the gross mismatch of
cart/arm
which honked like a tugboat at 30 hz in the presence of speakers with
a real woofer.

Still it was funny when I asked what CD player you had your first
words were, "It's a $5000 dollar player and they make a $20,000
player, imagine how good it must sound!." * Price tag junkies make me
hurl. *BTW, your CD player HF response is almost as truncated as your
Koetsu cart. *Not attributes I want in a front end but your so deaf
you probably didn't notice.


I heard the $20,000 player, and it's the best sounding digital I've
heard. So I was right.

I'm sorry, but your entire system sounds like ****. You have a Krell
amp, a Yamaha preamp, a Mitsubishi turntable and an old pair of Quad
ESLs. I've told people in the industry about your system and they
usually say, "What an idiot! How bad does it sound?" I tell them it
sounds dead and lifeless and utterly uninvolving. I still remember
when I brought my Rega p25 and Koetsu Black over. When you played your
Mitsubishi, everyone was talking over the music. When we switched to
mine, everyone shut up and listened.

I can't believe you're dumb enough to bring this up. Your system is
****. Your taste in gear is ****.
