What was your greatest epiphany?

In high school during the bus ride going to a state playoff game in baseball.I KNEW it was going to be a big day for me.I don`t remember the 45 minute bus ride because I was defintely in another zone or place.We were facing one of the best pitching prospects on the East coast (who later was drafted in the first round)and I was the lead-off batter.The very first pich was a fast ball down the middle and it looked like the size of a grapefruit.I hit this ball dead center field,well over the 400 feet sign that was on the fence.The next time I came to bat,he threw me a first pitch curve ball that I promptly hit 350 feet over the right field wall.The third time up,he threw a fast ball right at my head just missing me but dropping me to the ground.I got up,dusted myself off,then turned to the catcher and dared him to call for another fast ball.Well it came,and it was hit over the right field wall for my third home-run of the day.To make a long story short...I went 5 for 5 with 3 homeruns,a triple and a double,with 5 runs scored,and 9 runs batted in.I knew beforehand that something special was going to happen that day.People still to this day,27 years later,come up to me and say,"That ball you hit over the center field wall was the longest home-run they have ever seen a high-school player hit".I consider my day a blessing from an outside source because at this time in high school..I stood 5'3 and weighed 120 LBS.

Acoustic treatments!My room stinks and my gear is great!

The day I find out that you can actually go up to a girl and talk to her without being slapped right away. That happened a little bit later, but stil, a small step for mankind, but a great step for me!

When I first heard a real transparent highs and liquid mid. When I first heard it, I was pleasantly surprised to find this world of beauty I had not known before.

Made me so happy to learn that I can turn on happiness at will with a good hifi system. Needless to say, I've been hooked ever since.

Most people react positively to hifi - they just don't want to pay for it. Since we know good midfi components like parasound and arcam, we can share this joy with all who will listen.
