The Best Compliment You've Gotten On Your Rig?


.
My brother-in-law entered my home as jazz was playing on my system. After about three songs, the announcer came on and started to speak..and my brother-in-law looked at me with amazement.."that was the radio??!!

He could not believe he was listening to a radio station. It was my killer Sansui TU-X1 tuner doing its thing. Best compliment I could ever receive. My bro-in-law is not an audiophile.

The only thing I have ever heard when someone has seen my system is "how many watts do the speakers put out?" When I politely try to explain that speakers do not put out watts, they usually walk away.
I work in an elementary school and one of the teachers is a singer in a rock group that performs on weekends. She knows I am into music in a big way and stopped by my house to give me a cd of the bands latest performance. She looked at my stereo and asked me how much money I had invested. When I told her I spent between 35-40 grand, she remarked that "I didn't know Bose made such expensive stuff"

I had her sit in my listening chair and put on the cd she brought over. Within minutes, she was crying and said she never realized how good her voice really sounded.
