My 2 boys are like Mickey B’s. Love two channel. My old stereo is split between them now and one day my main system will be as well. I love that we have that in common though neither, at this point, is as afflicted as their father. Mainly I’m just glad that they love music and have found their own ways to pursue it.
I was going to give my son a system, with brand new Solid Steel rack but he has AirPods???
AirPods and iPhones have replaced good 2 channel audio, it's criminal. They don't buy albums, CDs, or even the full album downloads. They've replaced my old 45s with mp3s.
I got him a Solid Steel rack and I can't return it, so what do I do? Sell it on eBay for local pickup or wait for him to get smart. You would think a mechanical engineer wants a Scoutmaster and a beautiful really well designed audio rack. I get he doesn't necessarily want my old Rotel amp and preamp, but I have a set of B&W CM2s on stands and he could get himself a home theater integrated amp and use the system to watch Movies at the least.
Where have we gone wrong?
