At San Jose's The Analog Room, one of my favorite stores. Sonus Faber
Stradivari speakers, Wavestream V8 amps and preamp, SME TT and arm (I
didn't catch the cartridge). Sounded great. It should for that money!

Picked up a variety of Speakers Corner and Classic Records reissues of
RCA, Mercury, and Decca LPs. A great store staffed by knowledgeable and
gracious guys.

The relatively inexpensive Sonus Fabers can sound great in the right
room. You gotta like a company that makes a leather speaker.

A friend of mine had a pair of Sonus Faber "Grand Piano"
loudspeakers. I thought they sounded exceptionally good
both with his Krell and with my vintage Radford tube amplifier.
The build quality too was excellent.

It is well known among people who have actually done the real-world
experiments that the room that speakers are in generally affect sound
quality more than the speakers. In one experiment, two audiophiles swapped
Bose 901s and other more conventionally designed speakers and still reached
that conclusion. If you like the way that certain speakers sound in a
certain store, be prepared to duplicate their listening room exactly, in
your own home.

Yeccch! It is well known that Sonus uses overpriced drivers mounted in
hyper-priced enclosures that while scoring high for art, are mediocre at
best from the standpoint of sound quality. Great for the new rich with
questionable hearing and taste. Definately better-sounding than Bosendorfer
speakers, though. ;-)

Yep, Sonus Fabers appeal to the same people who might go ga-ga over wooden
microphones. I'm surprised that Jenn's music department hasn't bought a pair
of those wooden microphones - only about $15K a pair.

I thought they were a very middle-of-the-road kind of speaker,
nothing special whatsoever. Not impressive at all at the price point.
Sorry.

Agreed. Definitely appeal to audiophiles who are interested in bragging
rights based on appearance and high price. If your interest in audio and
music is shallow, and you have more money than brains, then they are right
for you!

There's just no accounting for preference, GOIA. ;-)

BTW Harry, do you play the lottery?

Here's a twist for you, GOIA: the odds on, say, Powerball are what,
250,000,000-1? Assume that the jackpot is $80 million +. It costs ONE
WHOLE DOLLAR to play. So who cares? I'll throw a buck in against $80+
million even though I know the odds. The funny thing is that even with
those horrible odds somebody seems to win it. I'd take the $80+
million and not feel one ounce of "humiliation".

Maybe you can find a relative to lend you the buck. LOL!

We can assume that if some poor Boy Scout comes by selling raffle
tickets you'd give him a lecture on vice, morality and probablility
(in addition to the superiority of CDs). Then you laugh in his face
and send him on his way. You'd probably feel all superior.

That's why you're an insane turd. ;-)

I did hear some smaller SF speakers in a nice setup not too long ago: I
believe they were the Auditor Ms on the matching stands. The source
components and amplification were all Simaudio so this wasn't a setup
that went for pocket change either. It sure sounded fantastic though!

250,000,000-1?

Can't count can you, Grasshopper? Powerball lotto numbers are 10 digit
numbers.

http://www.powerball.com/powerball/pb_numbers.asp

10 digits? well 6 digits are a milliion minus 1, 9 digits are a billion
minus one, so 10 digits are 10 billion - 1.

The odds of getting all 10 numbers right are 10 billion minus 1, to 1.

Silly you, grasshopper, your calculated odds were off by about 40:1.

Well, here. I "calculated" these odds directly from the Powerball

What was it I said?

"Here's a twist for you, my GOIA: the odds on, say, Powerball are

I *understated* the odds of winning by over 50,000,000. Silly me! The

Here's a twist for you, my master and commander: the odds on, say,
Powerball are what,
250,000,000-1?

Can't count can you, Grasshopper?

LOL!

LOL!

Powerball lotto numbers are 10 digit
numbers.

No, they're six. Are you having some issues counting, GOIA?

http://www.powerball.com/powerball/pb_numbers.asp

See, GOIA? On your own link the winning numbers were 3, 16, 20, 42, 58
and a powerball of 7.

Still can't count, I see now for sure. *It's an eleven digit number, not 10.
Not having taken the game seriously, I was unaware of the power ball number.

Hm. The powerball would account for the difference between a straight
six number lottery and the published odds.

But how do you reconcile your now being even more billions-to-one off
versus Powerballs' stated odds? Having trouble counting, GOIA? LOL!

I see Master that you didn't *that 5 of the numbers can potentially
have 2 digits?

What I see, GOIA, is that you were off by a few orders of magnitude.
What I see, GOIA, is that my guess on the odds was far, far closer
than your figures.

And that figures. LOL!

Face it, schmuck: you were wrong. Just admit it and we can move on.
It's not that big of a deal. LOL!

Some time back, I heard a conversation about organ building and the
difficulties of designing a mechanical action. An engineer type
helpfully pointed out that you could substitute a pneumatic or
electric
system and solve all the problems.

Apparently the whole lot of you had no clue about the fact that both
alternative methods have been implemented for over 100 years. FWIW, the
Moeller at church uses an electric system.

LOL! Right on schedule.

Um, GOIA, I think this proves your insanity...again. ;-)

Lord. Despite the inadvertent troll, I still advocate shunning, but he
does make such a large target sometimes.

Shoot at the very large drone with the "JACKASS" markings on either
side.

* Hijacked? *Arny comments and shhtard hands him the keys
with glee at the joyride coming.

Learn to read, 2pid. Then learn to understand what you've read.
Then... nevermind. LOL!

Yes, I would call Arny's "comments" hijacking.

The Sonus Fabers I heard were great! Good value for money, extremely well
made.

They can probably take a bit of man handling too, judging from the kinky
leather outfits they're wearing. The dirty b------s. I'd get a bra on them
and give them a good working over.

Never you mind who they appeal to. It's none of your business.

Sorry.

With the Sonus Fabers, you are paying a premium for the design and
materials. It's true that there are speakers that cost less and offer
a higher level of performance, but they're ugly boxes in comparison.
Since you're someone who wants to build an amp chassis out of an oil
pan, it's not surprising that you don't see the value of this.

As compared to RAO (once rec.audio.opinon) that you and your posse have
completely hijacked?

The real reason you discuss politics here Jenn, is that you would be cut to
ribbons on a *real* political forum!
