About the new Wilson Audio Watt/Puppy 8
Hey, Bartokfan - no need to track down the new Wilson line for a listen. It seems your mind is already made up... 
I bought the Granite for the base for my ....
Also, check out "The Incredibles"! (whether you have kids, or not...) 
Any John Hartford fans?
. Yeah, with a steady hand, and all the curlicues. He never rushed it either! Incredibly cool guy! 
Any John Hartford fans?
. A friend of mine took his eight year old daughter to see Hartford at the Missouri Botanical Garden auditorium, and grabbed a front row seat. During a sing-along, John was winking and crossing his eyes at her, and she was giggling...That was John... 
Cars R OK, but what kind of motorcycle do you have
.Big Guzzis are some of the coolest sounding bikes I've heard! I'd like to get an older Lemans, but there aren't so many for sale anymore. Really unique bikes! 
Cars R OK, but what kind of motorcycle do you have
. It's a matter of personal taste, I guess, but having owned an earlier generation Speed Triple, I perceived it as being pretty dull looking, and certainly more sluggish than the newer generation! And the chrome "bugeyes" are one of the defining c...

2004 Triumph Speed Triple SE! Black paint, frame, wheels, and a damn black competition high pipe. A blast! 
Rank Stereophile, & why no Von Schweikert reviews

Rank Stereophile, & why no Von Schweikert reviews
."Liberal"? I just want to know who the peanut-head is who listened to the Von Schweikert speakers line, and pronounced them all "rubbish". Does that include my beloved VR-5's, which I spent so much time auditioning? :( 
whats your idea of loud music.
Bigjoe, I also take a yearly hearing test(boiler shop), and score well, but apparently the generic test only rates the range from 4000 to 12000 hz or thereabouts. I'd have to see an audiologist for a full range test. By the way- nice motorsickle! :) 
Legacy 20/20 and Tubes
Sean, if people LIKE their speakers, would you please LET them? Without telling them why "technically speaking" they SHOULDN`T like them????? 
Non-magnetic Stainless Steel?
300 series stainless is non magnetic, while 400 series IS magnetic. I think it has to do with whether or not there is any nickel content. 
I'm a little stumped
Could be you`re "conditioned" to the system you have. If you listened to the Maggies for a few weeks, you might think the Klipschs sound "dull" by comparison. Both are good reputable speakers, just different. 
Who is your overall favorite guitarist?
My main man...Andres Segovia!
