What do you do when you listen to music?

a good stereo system should be able to putbyou to sleep.
could you describe the components in your stereo system ?

thanks

Hi Mr. Tennis:

My main system consists of the following:

Musical Fidelity CD PRE 24 preamp/cd player
Prima Luna Prologue 5 tube power amp
Opera Platea floorstanding speakers

interconnects: Ixos Silver Gamma silver/copper hybrid
speaker cables: Signal Cable
treatments: homemade speaker bases of 4" of Auralex foam resting on 12" square, 1/4" thick marble tiles

other equipment:

SONY SCD 555ES SACD player
Denon vintage turntable

System does a very nice job on vocals and acoustic instruments. Sound is detailed, but a touch on the warm side.

Regards, Rich

chase my toddler around!! if i'm lucky sit in the "sweet spot" for a few moments at a time. It's a majestic sound that makes me sad I can't enjoy more of it sans interruptus. Eventually i will get more of that time back alone but then again the family comes first (wife looking ) ;)

I'm Sorry for sometimes posting jackass responses. I'm haggered and worn from 2+ years of busted sleep and a sore back.
Peace and good fortune to you my audio brethren.

dpac996: suck it up man! J/K I feel your pain. I have 2 kids only 1.5 years apart so I have been haggard and worn for over 4+ years!!!! I only really get to enjoy my system after my kids have gone to sleep but by then the wifey always tells me to turn down the volume. One of these days, I am going to get my own listening room. Hopefully Santa Claus will grant this wish before my hearing gets too bad.

If I get too emotional I usually fart
