My wife is upset that I bought another audio system for the bedroom and is threatening to move out. Any advice?

Have you tried charging her crystals?

A seven thousand five hundred dollar black box to make everything sound like T Pain.

CIA locked up A432 in Guantanamo without a trial and the American people act like this is totally normal.

I demo gear running the original 1993 MP3 of Tom's Diner as performed by the incomparable and Grammy Award-winning Suzanne Vega.

MP3, by design, simplifies sound into its truest self, distilling sound waves into their purest and most basic (i.e.desirable) form. Two samples per second of a cymbal is all one needs to hear the true clarity of a stick smashing a metal dish.

To wit, mono is far superior to stereo. Stereo does not exist in nature other than a mammal belching and farting simultaneously. Even then, one must be positioned in the "golden triangle" between the oral and anal cavities to experience a true "stereo" field. This is also why we use "airy" to describe a sound stage.

If it's good enough for Karlheinz Brandenburg, then it's good enough for me.

well why not posted:

I read the Rollins article about his stereo and he shouts out the Gee Tee album, which is cool, but also an intentionally hissy, buzzy mess of a mix.

You'll really feel the clarity of those pops and clicks on $10k gear. The buzz from the guitar amp sings on my Thorens and adds a 3rd, or even 4th dimension to the recording.

I always get weird looks when I bring my SNES and a copy of Mario Paint to the hifi store. :ssh:

This is inspired. I will 100% use the Wii Shop music to demo gear from now on.
