Thomas, My girlfriend has stated that if I ever really screw up, and screw up BIG(cheating, crime, etc.), there's is only one thing likely to help her get past it - Manolo Blahnik, and LOTS of it, regularly. |
victor Add on to that, she's a lawyer, and a damn good one, too. Keeps me on my toes! Actually, I'm constantly amazed that she puts up with my obsession with audio - moving speakers around, new amps, isolation transformers, cables everywhere, late night listening sessions, etc. I guess it's better than when I used live in bars. I just sold my house, escrow closes in 21 days. Time for me to start thinking about upgrades. |
Oh, the usual audio envy type of insanity! Actually, I haven't found a place to rent yet(until this housing bubble pops), so I have no idea how much I will have. I currently live in a 4 bedroom, 2,600 sq. ft house with a living room that is 15'x20', but all the rental houses I've been looking are half that size, especially the rooms. So, the IM-Bens with dual subwoofers will probably be way too much for where I'm going live the next year or two. I can't imagine selling them now that Terry Cain has passed away, there's simply too much of his soul in them. But, I may gets some coaxial cornerhorns for the meantime. But, if I am able to find something of suitable size, in my price range, then I'd love to buy the Art Audio PX-25 monoblocks that Audiofeil had up for sale last week. The stereo version i have is incredible and the monos would be sublime. In the more realistic realm, I'd like to try out a used SME Phantom, Triplanar, Schroeder, etc. Also, a tubed phono pre like a used Wright Sound AG, Thor 2000, or Art Audio Vinyl One. I also badly need an equipment rack, but have to wait and see what type of room I am going to end up in - concrete slab or suspend wood. Crazy hobby were in - make money, then spend it just as fast. |
