I've always thought the goal of high-end audio was not to have your neighbors bang on the wall and say, 'Turn that darn music down' but to have your neighbors bang on the wall and say, 'Tell your friends to go home and you can practice later this week'.
A playlist of a few women singers, and Marilyn Manson.

I always thought this was a poor sounding comp. That is, until I played
it using a California Audio Labs CL-15 (20-bit, HDCD) Sounded it's
best thru that. Time to dig it out of the closet and give these discs
another try.
First up: The Golliwogs;
Yep, Sounds darn good. 'Walking on the Water' is such a cool song.'
This came with one of My dad’s records, and I recognized the song “Mr. Blue Sky” from Guardians of the Galaxy 2. First impressions are good.

I’ve been looking for an old school CD player for a while. Found this Sony CDP-21 at a flea market minus the power cord for $10 today. Playing Adele now.
